What do I need to offer to attract beta users?
Hi everybody! 👋
I’m Guta, based on Brazil and co-founder of Dashbreeze. We’ve just launched our beta version and would love to acquire some beta users.
With Dashbreeze, you can easily turn your spreadsheets or connect Google Sheets or Notion into shareable dashboards and charts. No coding needed.
We were thinking of offering good discount coupons to the first interested users. Do you think this is a good strategy? What strategies have you used that were effective in this regard?
If you are interested, you can test it out without signing in by using our demo version, or create a free account:
Feel free to share your thoughts. You can write in the comments section here or email us at hi@dashbreeze.com.
Thank you very much! 😊
Hi Guta, I've tried to sign up and explored a little bit your app.
Here is some feedback for you:
As for the beta testers, just reach out to 100+ of your potential customers using X, LinkedIn, Reddit, or another social platform, and about 5-15 people should respond.
Something like this:
I noticed you're interested in [specific interest related to your app]. That's awesome!
I'm working on a new app that [briefly describe what the app does and its value]. We're currently looking for beta testers to help us refine it.
Would you be interested in giving it a try? Your insights would be incredibly valuable, and it only takes a few minutes to get started.
Thanks a lot!
It’s really kind of you to take time out of your day to actually test my software. Thank you very much! I’ve already adjusted everything you pointed out. I will also follow your advice to do cold outreach.
Congrats! I'm no expert, but the only thing I can say is to share your link as much as possible. I have this rule that you dont 'create' traffic, you direct it. "Traffic" or people that might want to use your product already exist and peopably all group i the same place. If you know any influencers that speak on no code, sharing your link in their comments, and just generally around their content might help.
Lets say you follow JJ from softr. People that follow him are propably interested in making apps from Google sheets. If you can direct some traffic away from his content, to your website. You'll have a flow of target traffic.
Ideally getting people with an audience to endorse you is your end goal.
Hope this helps!
Thank you very much for your tips!! Very helpful!
I also recommend considering offering exclusive features or early access to new functionalities as additional incentives. Additionally, enhancing your visibility through SEO could help attract more beta users. You might want to try using SEO AI to optimize your approach. I hope these suggestions are helpful!
Really like your suggestions. I'll try them out. Thanks!
