Founders Beware
Founders, beware: “I don’t like it, so my target market won’t either” is dangerous thinking.
You are NOT your audience.
▶ Test new ideas
▶ Learn what’s trending
▶ Research your audience
And don’t let your personal behavior dominate your marketing strategy.
The End
Hey there, here are some tools I recently discovered and am playing around with:
🧸 Gummysearch - a cool tool that allows you to do advanced research on Reddit.
🙋 Rb2b - personal level identify finder for your website that syncs to Slack.
🏄 Surfe - LinkedIn prospecting tool. Instantly find someone’s email address and sync their contact info to your CRM.
I just started my outbound strategy and will let you know how it goes. And I’m getting much smarter about LinkedIn ads (will share my insights in the near future as well).
Have a great week!
Eric M.
