All due respect, this is maximally wrong advice. You need to talk to people to figure out their pains and if your product alleviates them. You'd be better off doing the cold contact and paying someone else to build the product.
I never had an ounce of success until repeated failures forced me out of my shell and in to actually talking to potential customers.
- saimiam 6y agoThat’s why I suggested outsourcing some of the customer contact. E.g., deciding what your customer archetype looks like and then having an intern send them cold emails. Or using a Twitter tool to filter in tweets related to your project, then handing some of the relationship building to someone else.
