How do I find my first customer?

It doesn't have to be a customer. I want a user who is willing to try my service and tell me how good/bad it is. After I rolled out MVP, I am not getting any users. So far, I have tried Reddit and Tread posts to reach out to people. I don't want to promote here but the product is a Slack app that turns your workspace into CS Chat.

Promote your product on social media, and directories can be helpful :)

Twitter is also a great place where you can find early testers

When we talk about "users", most people's first reaction is "strangers", and we easily overlook our own family and friends. When I have an MVP product, I will prioritize finding friends or relatives around me, and look for the one who fits the user portrait of the product among them. If my friends don't have it, I will still recommend it to them because my friends still have friends. Because we already know each other, there will always be someone willing to try and give me feedback. I am also happy to provide them with a free trial or some other benefits in return. BTW, I think you can try to launch your product on Product Hunt. Why not?

Free Use Offer Give early users the chance to try it for free. Suggestions such as "Free six months for MVP users" are easy to attract attention. Offer free use as a condition of giving feedback after use, and find improvements based on feedback😄

1. Family, Friends & Networking: Start with your circle—family and friends are usually willing to help out. Plus, tap into your network; someone might know just the right folks who'd be interested. 2. Early Adopters Love New Stuff: Many people love being the first to try something new. Get your product out there on social media, Product Hunt, or even through ads. Offer a free trial to make it easy for them to jump in and check it out. Fingers crossed for some awesome feedback! 🤞
