What they did
Early grind: wrote all the articles himself, reached out to influencers, posted a lot on Reddit and worked hard to get backlinks. Goal is 'asymmetric' marketing: heavy effort up front that later brings customers on autopilot via Google and LLMs like ChatGPT recommending the tool.
What happened
SEO/LLM recommendations are one of his three best channels; traffic is steady (roughly 300-500) and people keep buying on autopilot
- Stage
- Early (Early, then compounding)
“My three best marketing channels so far are word of mouth, affiliates, and SEO or ChatGPT and other like LLMs recommending me.”
“I did a lot of grind in the beginning. I created all the articles, I reached out to influencers, I posted a lot on Reddit, etc. Getting all the backlinks is also a struggle, but at some point, people just keep coming to your website and buying on autopilot.”
