a food producer wanted buyers in new zealand and australia.
no trade fair. no middleman. no 2am google maps scrolling.
9 minutes later they had 35 companies, 24 emails and 33 phone numbers.
here's how it works:
@ahmetcigsar fiyat avantajı bitince geriye tek şey kalıyor: müşteriyi kim tanıyor. pazaryerinde satan çoğu marka kendi müşterisinin telefonunu bile bilmiyor. bence asıl kayıp komisyon değil, bu
@aporiabuilds 1 in 60 on day 3 is not an email problem yet, its a list problem. before rewriting the copy check if those 60 had a reason to care this month: new hire, new market, a launch. i'd fix who you write to before how you write it
health & pharma → turkey: 1,200+ companies, 900+ emails.
office furniture → turkey: 21 minutes, 88 companies, 50 emails.
big market or tiny niche, same job: find who should be buying. first 50 are on me: https://t.co/FZqTL97Ee6
@Shpigford the boring part nobody tweets: those daily signups usually trace back to one page or one person you forgot about. find it and feed it, because the best growth channel is whichever one already works while you're asleep.
@ShaanVP spacexsi sounds like a rash you'd google at 2am. a name people can't say out loud is a name nobody recommends, and word of mouth is the only distribution that costs zero. the best brand names pass the 'tell your mom at dinner' test.

step 3: they got the list.
35 is small on purpose, it's a niche market. when the market is big, it scales: one industrial energy equipment search found 2,900+ companies, then 9,800+ people who work there in 12 minutes, verified emails included.
most founders don't have a marketing problem. they have a "who exactly am i selling to" problem.
they email a pile of "smb owners", nobody replies, so they blame email.
fix: one sentence. who has the pain, and what just changed for them. can't write it? don't send anything yet.
@palassis at capacity, the fix usually isn't more clients, it's better ones. go back to the 2-3 people who almost hired you and ask what stopped them.
warm leads cost you one message, not a whole new pipeline.
@agazdecki the part people skip: the $6M is certain, your next 5 years aren't.
20% growth on $1M profit feels safe until one big customer churns or a competitor shows up with vc money.
the real question isn't the price, it's how much of your future you actually control.
@thejustinwelsh the "lifestyle business" insult usually comes from people counting headcount, not margin.
small team, real customers, profit every month. that's not a lifestyle, it's the strategy most startups pivot into after burning 3 years.
lunch with your wife is just the dividend.
@Ftalksalot i'd drop the iphone story and post the service itself: 'i register your company in x days, here's what you need' + price. people who just started a business search for exactly that. then share it in nigerian startup groups, thats where they hang out
@rrriiisss03@RobbyFrank@marclou no audience is actually the easy mode. go to the places where people already complain about the problem you solve (reddit threads, other people's replies, small forums) and answer them properly. 5 useful answers a day beats 5 posts to nobody
@santoshstack@thenowhereway building got easy, thats why everyone's stuck at the same spot. skip the broadcasting, find 10 people who complained about your exact problem this week and message them one by one. 10 real convos teach you more than 1000 impressions
@kip_roland you already know how to sell on live, so your first plant buyers are collectors, not random whatnot browsers. lurk where tc plant people trade, note what they keep asking for, then run a 20 min test stream with 5 listings. real bids beat planning.
