Read the free guideWith AI. And a little human judgement.
I want to talk to project managers
at small web design agencies
who handle client feedback.
Specific enough to find.

A made-up example from the guide.
A little look inside. Pick a step.
You don't need a perfect customer profile.
You need a starting point you can check.
Turn a broad idea into a specific role, business and task. Use AI to find potential customers with real sources.
Look at why each person fits. Keep what you know separate from what you're assuming.
Draft an honest message. Ask about their last project, then let their answers shape your next question.
“Go talk to customers.”
Okay. But who?
That's where this guide starts. I'm building the First Customer Club for people working towards their first customer with an AI or software business.
Finding 10 people doesn't prove demand. It gives you somewhere useful to begin.
