These are really good for finding inspiration!
I'll add my own, since I've spent the last year building a little SaaS product (Dependabot): in the early days, nothing beats one-on-one sales. It's not glamorous, but early on you learn so much more from each attempted sale than each time you try a marketing strategy. If you buy facebook ads, blog, etc., then it's hard to tell why customers are engaging with you or not. Don't get me wrong, it's possible, but the feedback you get is so much stronger when it's a sale and you can ask the other person straight up.
I did the above (after failing at every other marketing strategy) with Dependabot when we were literally giving it away and it made a huge difference to the product and our user numbers.
