That's actually the wrong way to look at it. You should have iterated the idea with potential users (not just people who like the idea but are committed to using your product) before building it (at least ideally). I assume you didn't do this step from the way you made it sound. Next, once you've gotten your MVP built, the next major step should be to get those users together to try your MVP during a private beta. This will help you fix bugs, adjust the MVP, and add features that the early adopters suggests. This should be the step you guys should be working on now. You shouldn't be out there trying to do a massive launch, but rather find a small group of people willing to try your product out. Once you're done with that, then you potentially will try to get the word out to the masses and garner traction. Without social proof, without any form of traction (user or revenue), and being first time entrepreneurs, you'll have a much harder time raising capital if you don't get at least have the above done (albeit anything is possible). You absolutely do not need funding to get that much done. There is a saying that it is better to get a few users who absolutely love your product early on than a bunch of users who somewhat like your product. Focus on this.
