Not only is it making your first impression, it's also your best opportunity to get candid feedback, observe what positioning resonates with your audience, and create your playbook for working through objections.

You mentioned time is your biggest constraint, and that you need to work on the product.

Is there a milestone where your product will have enough features that you can shift to spending half your time acquiring customers?

The work never ends :) but my point was primarily about focus on the development in case of large features. In between, it's fine to be distracted by customer acquisition.

You are correct though that the first impression is important, so I will just keep doing what I'm doing. On the other hand, I can see hiring someone to go and look for leads, which I can then pursue myself. Seems like a fair compromise.
