We are building ano nline Marketplace, We need help!

Hey everyone!

We’re two software engineers building a B2C marketplace. We managed to put together the initial platform in just a few days, but now we’re trying to reach the harder side of our marketplace—high-net-worth individuals—for feedback before finalizing the features. (For context, these individuals are quite active on social media and earn a decent income.)

I’ve been reaching out to them via TikTok and Instagram to gather their feedback. The challenge? Either we get no response, or (like today) someone even called me a scammer! 😅 (For clarity, I shared my LinkedIn profile and the platform link and followed up via TikTok after not getting any response to my emails.)

Is there anyone here—preferably in the UK or US—with experience in influencer marketing who could guide us? We’d greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions, and we’d be happy to offer something in return.

It’d also be great to connect on LinkedIn or X (formerly Twitter). If you have experience with marketplaces, we’re even considering bringing on an advisor.

Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏
