Where and how can i find my first paying client?

Advice :advice:

I started building my ai governance consultancy few months ago. Currently i am doing

\- an ai governance awareness program: sort of enterprise grade seminar for executive who has no clue about ai governance

\- ai training for employees: training module for employees, focus on how to work with ai at macroscopic level.

\- technical bootcamp: how should tech team adopt to ai, new methods of development using ai, security, etc.

\- iso 42001 consultancy

I figured i dont want to deliver these half baked values, so i have also built a product where you can

\- quickly create ai policy,

\- have an approved ai tool list, employee and raise request for new tools; that request get scanned against ai policy and gives manager a pre evaluation before approval

\- integrated training videos on this platform

\- a feature to raise ai issues to upper management

(Upcoming: will add soon in next iteration)

\- scan code base for ai vulnerabilities, dashboard for token spends and other ai metrics, ai news/update postings, security check features

My question is i am a good builder, i have great communication skill. But where do i go to find my first client? My target audience are small medium business & startups. Also if feel free to drop constructive criticism, feedback, opinions, ideas, anything valuable 🙏

Ps: i am indian based out of north America
