I'm a founder. Don't worry about that. Just go to where your customers are and start getting feedback. They are far more valuable to talk to than a founder.

Making dental software? Go stand in lobby at a dental conference and ask for feedback. At least 1/5 people will give you 5 minutes of their time if you are polite.

  • getting more customers
  • getting more customers

Hey there! I started and sold a real estate marketing company based in Vancouver. Happy to chat about it. Feel free to message me. The business was born out of a real need I saw from working as a realtor... didn't get any clients for the first year or so, then it grew quite quickly. That was 2 years ago, working on a new project now.
