Ask HN: How are you acquiring your first hundred users?

>>amanch+(OP)
In 4 months I published:

  - 22 YouTube videos

  - two LinkedIn posts a week

It has to be said that I was well plugged in to niche forums and subreddits.

Now I have:

  - 100 signups

  - 28 demo completions

  - 500 subscribers on YouTube

The product is: https://foxev.io (learn about electric car tech like you learn languages with duolingo).

so much media content and only 100 user… damn thats tough

I am quite happy with this to be honest - I am hoping for a viral post of course, but I do get noise out of it and (previously) strangers are looking at what I do.

Like, how else should it work? There is of course always Google Ads but that strikes me as more short-sighted than building a backlog of content to refer back to.

I wish I knew always-working answer and wish it was easier.. it is tough!
