I built a pricing calculator for marketing agencies β€” 0 installs in 2 weeks, here's what I'm learning

Hey IH πŸ‘‹ I'm Mark, solo founder building PriceIQ β€” an embeddable pricing calculator for marketing agencies. The idea: instead of "Contact us for a quote," agencies drop a 30KB widget on their site. Visitors answer 5 questions, get an instant price range, and the agency gets a pre-qualified lead. Here's my honest scorecard after 2 weeks: - 38 cold emails sent β†’ 0 replies - 6 LinkedIn InMails β†’ 0 replies - Listed on Capterra, AlternativeTo, SaaSHub β†’ 6 organic visitors - 1 inbound from a directory (SaaS Browser found me) What I've learned: 1. Cold email to agencies who aren't thinking about pricing friction = interruption, not value 2. Directory listings actually compound β€” 6 organic visitors found me through search 3. The product works. The distribution doesn't. Yet. Now pivoting to intent-based distribution: showing up on Reddit/Quora where agencies are already asking "how do I add a pricing calculator?" Would love feedback from anyone who's cracked B2B SaaS distribution as a solo founder. trypriceiq.com β€” free for up to 50 leads/month.
