Get Your First 3 Customers With Zero Audience

Nextdoor, Loom demos, and partner borrowing — scripts that work in week one.

Channel 1: Neighborhood + maps

For local services: Nextdoor posts plus steady Google Maps outreach daily. As an illustrative example, some operators report booking a first client within days this way — timing varies widely by market.

Channel 2: Loom demos

For B2B services: record a 90-second teardown of their site/process, send with one CTA. Small daily batches can win early replies — conversion varies widely, so track your own numbers.

Channel 3: Borrowed trust

Partner with one adjacent vendor (e.g. realtors for pressure washing) on revenue share.
