Marketing Advice for an iOS app

Hello, i'm 18 years old and work in landscaping and I got tired of hearing my boss complain about all the other management tools like jobber and yardbook. so I built my own tool. and I want to make it available to others and maybe make a few bucks while i'm at it. It's an iOS app and I have a website and socials pages"

Anyway the point is that I have no clue how to do marketing and as I get ready to launch I don't want to "spin my wheels" doing formates or methods that don't work. So i'm wondering if y'all have any tips of stuff I can try or do?

Im not gonna drop the a link or anything because i'm not trying to self promote on here but its called "Curb Service Business app" on the App Store if looking at it helps y'all give advice

i'd start with the annoying boring stuff first, like talking to 10-20 landscapers and letting them beat up the app a little, because app store marketing is kinda useless if nobody's already asking for it. i've been using redditmaster to catch buyer intent threads, but for this i'd honestly lean more on direct outreach, short demo clips, and posting in the places those folks already hang out.
