How to find customers
Spoiler alert: this is the wrong question to be asking.
A better question to ask is:
How can you help customers find you?
Or better yet ...
Where do your best customers want to find you?
In an ad?
In a marketplace?
Referred by a friend?
Nailing this context could make all the difference.
For example:
I can attribute ~$100k of my revenue in 2021 to getting coffee with some guy I had never met, having zero expectations of ever 'selling' him anything.
Yet I’ve spent ~$50k over the last year trying to make Meta ads 'work' for me.
Now don't get me wrong ... they've definitely 'worked'.
But that $6 cup of coffee had a much better ROAS.
Time to drink more coffee with new friends.
