How many marketing channels did you try before finding one that works?

by Darko Gjorgjievski

For me, it was about 2-3 (Reddit, Medium) before finding 1-2 that worked. What about you/

    Which worked for you? I'm still exploring channels and will try paid ads soon to reinvest some revenue. Will probably try Twitter ads first.

    I tried around 3 channels before finding one that worked.

    • First was cold email. It kind of worked but it was not scalable.
    • Second were communities (Slack groups). Again, poor conversion rate.
    • Third was listing pages and marketplaces. Did not find the right audience there.

    I started exploring LinkedIn earlier this year and I'm getting good results. Content creation is not easy, but this is the first channel that feels like a proper fit for the product and the audience.

    I'm still trying to find one that works. I have a Fitness management Saas and have tried:

    • cold-email
    • Instagram + ads
    • LinkedIn

    and now I'm trying fb, if you have any advice it will be very welcomed since I'm an engineer, not a marketing expert 😁

        I'm starting with just a FB account, trying to post in groups related to fitness equipment (I thought that's where I would find the people I'm interested to talk with) and following gyms to get more traffic

        Twitter and Indie Hacker are the best channels so far

    I've seen the use of affiliates work really well for certain products and services

        Rob Hope recently posted about this in great detail. He created an experiment on Black Friday to promote the sale of his ebook Landing Page Hot Tips . He utilised his affiliates, gave them 50% of the ebook price, and then wrote a brilliant article explaining the results
