Get your first 10 customers
This prompt asks the AI to act as an experienced founder and plan how to win your first ten customers from the contacts you already have. It includes a short outreach message, how to handle not now and an honest look at weak spots in your idea.
Act as a founder who has started several small businesses. What I sell: [PRODUCT OR SERVICE] Who I think it is for: [CUSTOMER] Price: [PRICE] What I have: [e.g. 300 LinkedIn contacts, a WhatsApp group, no website yet] Give me a 30-day plan to win my first 10 paying customers without ads. Include who to contact first, a short message I can send them, how to handle "not now", and what to ask each customer after they buy so I learn quickly. Be honest about which parts of my idea look weak.
Talk to people one by one first. Early customers come from conversations, not posts.
