Marketer Thought, Organic Marketing is Dead now you need big Funds.
Heh everyone, so I am a full stack developer and a solopreneur building an AI application builder Zolly. Last month launched it and thought to get first few thousands signups organically. Tried all the platforms people suggest. From Reddit to PH, HN. The attraction was not that great. I thought I am doing something wrong.
I started studying about organic marketing over digital media. And the more I study the more I realise. That I need to have deep pocket and huge funds to win over the market.
I see inferior products gaing huge market share through marketing. They run ads left right center. Get signups and then go for funding. Use that new funds to gain more users through advertisement.
And the cycle repeats.
So, I realised as I have no funds I might not win the market and have to loose the battle. My product is good as per the people using, they are loving it, getting recurring revenue on the weekly subscription. But the attraction is so low and the visibility of my product around internet is so low. I don't think I can sustain the market.
So Marketer's what do you guys think? Is there any way I can promote, advertise my product. Any organic way where I can reach out to more people with my application?
