We launched a SaaS company about a month ago. It’s a no-code data prediction platform where you can upload a spreadsheet and build machine learning models — no LLMs involved.
We think it’s pretty cool, but honestly, one of our biggest challenges right now is getting people to talk to us about it. I’ve been reaching out on LinkedIn, but most people don’t respond.
I’m trying to figure out what makes the most sense at this stage:
Should we offer a free trial first, or would a webinar/demo be a better way to get people interested?
Part of me feels like people don’t want to hear about a new product when they don’t know us yet or aren’t getting anything from us first.
For those who have launched a SaaS before, what worked for you when you were trying to get those first conversations?
I wouldn’t test trial vs webinar yet. I’d find five people with the same spreadsheet decision, build one prediction with each, and note where the setup repeats. Which role owns that problem today?
i like that idea!thank!i need those people.
Before choosing trial vs demo, have you learned whether the people who do respond understand the problem but hesitate to try, or whether you're mostly reaching prospects who don't have a strong enough use case?
i know who more likely to have problems but they need to know more how much we can help them.maybe i want to educate them first before selling.i really dont know which direction.it is www.yourcloudgroup.com ,Can you check and tell me what you think?if you dont have time it is ok.
That distinction is worth digging into, especially the gap between recognizing the problem and understanding the value. If you’re open to it, what’s the best email to reach you on?

Thanks! I’ve just sent it over.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts whenever you have a chance.
