I launched on PH with little reception and barely crossing 5 signup.

I am open to any idea as long as it doesn't involve me spending any money. LOL

    I would suggest building up an email list then start talking to everyone of them. The reason being not everyone would reply but 10% of a 100 emails list would help tremendously.

    Maybe you can get some inspiration from these:
