You probably still need a decent sample size when finding a market fit, so I wouldn’t write it off as not being useful unless there’s been 10-20 impressions.

They don’t need sold on things that make their job easier, the way good dev tools don’t need to sell/convince developers to use them. They provide an obvious value, and people want them because of the value they can see and use firsthand. If you have to talk someone into using a dev tool or design tool over multiple emails and madmen style nights on the town, you’re trying to convince someone to see value in something with no obvious value. People don’t need marketing or convincing to buy things they see clear benefit from. Designers are a rare type who might not know what they are missing or what exactly they need, but when they see it in front of them, if it helps them, they will instantly want it and not need to be sold on it. If there is no interest from even 5 designers I’d say it’s not going to scale out to a good conversion rate. Designers are a rare type where I would argue it only takes 3-5 to say nope to know you’re not hitting any real pain point. A plugin that automates tedious photoshop workflows sells itself. Immediate value is right in a demo. Nobody has to wine and dine people on that. Just my opinion.
