Scared of Launching🚀 into Silence? Here’s How to Get Your First Users

Launching a product can be terrifying, especially when you’re met with silence. Many founders struggle with this fear—either delaying their launch or facing disappointment when no one notices. The truth? Building is easy. Getting users is hard.

Why Launches Fail

Successful launches require more than just a great product. You need:

As Dan Kennedy famously said, “You’re not in the [product] business. You’re in the marketing-your-business business.” The best product doesn’t always win—the best-marketed one does.

The Introvert’s Dilemma

For introverted founders, marketing can feel exhausting. Cold DMs and relentless outreach often feel spammy or uncomfortable. But avoiding these steps means your product might never find its audience.

Solution? Focus on organic engagement. Instead of cold outreach, participate in discussions where your target audience already hangs out. Platforms like Reddit are goldmines for this—if you approach it right.
