Last week I launched a simple (humanAI π§ββοΈ) MVP to help people save time and increase the impact of crafting messages to their weak network ties (most of us have around 900 LinkedIn connections but zero value).
I had 42 sign ups at www.shokku.co/beta from IH, Reddit, and some Slack channels.
My critical assumption was that I could help people save time (people told me they spend on average 30m writing these things), and improve hit rate (scheduling a call or coffee).
7 people went on to use the service resulting in 5 successful responses.
I am quite satisfied with the results but now need to test a new assumption (a little bit stuck on this).
When it comes to nurturing your second tier network, what challenges (if any) do you have?
