Newsletter will not get you your first 100 Clients, Yep!!


​

In This Newsletter, We Will Talk About

Last week we launched GTM Vault v.01 and I am glad to inform that we have closed the first batch subscriptions.​
​
Though we fell short of our estimated number of 500, but really thankful to those who believed in our content and appreciated the non-AI, well-researched playbook.

But do you know where do we have the most founders investing in Business Insights?
Its the Silicon Valley

Proof lies in the Pudding, check out these stats

  • Clicks - 4,467 πŸ’š
  • Click to delivery rate - 31.4% πŸ’š
  • Click to open rate - 86.9% πŸ’š
  • Stripe Payment Clicks - 1200 πŸ’š
  • Payments completed - 371 πŸš€
  • Payment Demographics - 71% headquartered in Silicon Valley

Now you know why i said that!!, Its still an observation though.


Next up on the line is why we published this subject line?

Especially after confirming successful subscriptions of our GTM vault v.01

Do we not want, everyone to find their clients through emailers?
That is not the case but the reason is slightly deeper, because we found our First Paying customers by iterating 3 times and by speaking to 42 Founders and Newsletter writers on LinkedIn.

Yes the same age old, "Speak to your Customer" shtick.

But there is more to it, read on!!


Every Month, I watch the same pattern destroy founder momentum:
β†’ Build a product
β†’ Start a newsletter to "build an audience"
β†’ Write 10, 20, 30 issues
β†’ Hit 500 subscribers
β†’ Still have fewer than 50 actual users
​
You're spending hours crafting the perfect subject line. Obsessing over open rates. A/B testing your CTAs.
Meanwhile, your competitor just closed 40 users this month by doing something completely different.
​
​Here's the uncomfortable truth: Newsletters don't get you customers, but conversations do.

Email campaigns are incredible for keeping customers, but they're terrible for getting your first ones.
​
Here's why?:
Newsletters are a broadcast tool. You write once, send to thousands, hope someone bites.
​​
Early acquisition is a conversation tool.
​
​
​You find one person with the exact pain you solve.
You talk to them. You convert them.
​
​
When Glossier was at zero customers, Emily Weiss didn't send newsletters to strangers. She found 47 women on Instagram actively complaining that beauty brands didn't understand them.
She personally replied to every single one.
Those 47 became 200 evangelists. Those 200 brought 10,000 customers.
The pattern wasn't: Build β†’ Newsletter β†’ Audience β†’ Customers
​
​It was: Build β†’ Conversations β†’ First 100 Customers β†’ Then Newsletter (to keep them engaged)

You're using a retention tool for an acquisition job. That's why it'll never work

You need to stop broadcasting and start listening.
​Somewhere right now, 15-20 people in your niche are actively looking for what you built. ​
​
They're posting on Reddit: "Does anyone know a tool that does X?"
They're tweeting: "Why is there no solution for Y?"
They're asking in Slack communities: "I've tried Z and it's terrible.
What else is there?"
​These aren't cold prospects, they're warm leads!
​
Your job isn't to interrupt them with an ad or add them to a drip campaign.
Your job is to show up in that moment with a message that starts a conversation: "Hey, I saw you asking about [pain point].
We actually built something specifically for this.
Still early, but happy to give you access if you want to try it - no strings attached."
​​
That's not marketing. That's just being helpful at the right time. And it works because you're not selling - you're solving.


The Problem

I know, that you Don't Have Time to Find These People, You're building product, Managing a team, Dealing with bugs and Fighting fires.​
​
​There's a better way!

The First 100 Users Sprint

We do the research you don’t have time for.
​In 7 days, you’ll have:
​
​
βœ… 15–20 real people asking for solutions like yours (posts in last 30 days, not stale leads)
βœ… Personalized DMs crafted from their exact pain
βœ… A playbook on how to turn replies into users

Your job: Send the messages. Have the conversations. Close the deals.

Our promise: If you get zero responses, we find you 15 more for free.

This is for you if:

  • You're at 0-200 users
  • You've tried ads and they're not working
  • You're willing to have real conversations

Not for you if:

  • You're already at 1000+ users
  • You want someone to "do marketing" while you stay hands-off

We’re capping this to 25 founders only so we can QA every list.

Investment: $285 one-time​
Timeline: 7 days.

This is the first personalized consulting provided by us, customised for each founder

Or​
​The Real Question:​
Spend 3 more months writing newsletters nobody converts from?
Or spend 7 days talking to 20 people already facing the problem you are trying to solve?
​
