Ask HN: Share your early customer acquisition strategies.
I think a lot of people on HN would have bookmarked great content on how to get customers when you've just started out. If you could share them, that would be great.
I'm planning to take the plunge next month and would appreciate any information on customer acquisition strategies.
Thanks.

- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoIsn't this exactly the question asked here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2239281 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2239281 Why not add your links to the item, rather than creating yet another thread on exactly the same question.
- keeptrying 16y agoThat thread is dead.
- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoI'm confused. It seems very much alive to me. It's 6 hours old and has 17 comments, the last just over an hour ago. What makes you say it's dead? ADDED IN EDIT: Just as a test, I've added your links over there. Seems to work ... ADDED IN FURTHER EDIT: Comments are still being upvoted in that thread.
