How did you get your first paying customers?

I often read stories of how Saas founders got their first paying customers. But many times they don't mention the channels they used and the conversion rates they got.

That's interesting because we can learn from their experience when we launch and promote our products on different channels.

So if you do have some data about your product (e.g. which channels work the best and what conversion rates are you getting), please share it here.

I'd love to hear it!
