Ask HN: Where to find agencies/startups who could be my first few users?

3 pointskshivendu4 comments

Hi, I'm working on an automatic time tracking tool and I'm looking for agencies/startups who could be one of my first users.

I'm a good engineer but I've no clue where to find users in this domain. Please drop your suggestions in the comments.

Thanks!

I'm a developer as well and for me I'd say the most effective way to reach your audience is to cold mail them about your product and services. Cold mailing them in a way that's not spammy and instead makes them what to know more and reach back out to you. And don't just limit yourself to cold mailing, if you don't know someone's email, you can hit them up on insta or twitter for cold DM's, but again you need to be careful of what you say and how long your messages. Chances are they get a lot of similar messages, so you need to act quick in a short message while still attracting them to your concept

Is there a curated list/community where I can find bunch of them ?

There's this list I came across recently about cold mailing, you can check it out to see if it fits what you need
