How would you grow this side project?

Would love some ideas around how you might grow this side project:
https://startupnegotiator.com/

The Startup Negotiator is a service which helps startups and indiehackers to save money on their software bills by negotiating on their behalf.

But, instead of negotiating on behalf of individual startups, our goal is to aggregate the demand of 1000 startups before negotiating with providers. This will allow us to get the best deals possible.

How would you grow the email list to 1000 startup founders?

      INteresting @visualdev - is it a productized service? Seems promising.

    I'm not an expert at copy writing so take this advice with a grain of salt but I would try to shorten the explanation. The more concise the better. Maybe you can break it down into steps so that the formatting is nicer to take in rather than a block of text.

    I can't say much about the actual business aspect of things but it sounds like it could be useful. Maybe write up some posts about real examples of how this can be done with a providers like AWS or Digital Ocean, etc.

    One other thing. It's not immediately apparent where to sign up so I'd add a button under the intro to bring you to the sign up form.

      Thanks a lot for your feedback. Completely agree that the start is a bit long-winded. I've update it there to be a bit more concise and have moved an explainer to below the signup form. What do you think? Is it still clear that its group negotiations vs negotiating on behalf of one startup?

      Hear you on the button too. Unfortunately, I'm just using convertkit for the landing page and you don' t get much wiggle room in terms of designing the page.

      Thanks again
