Where to find teachers in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Teachers

Teachers want to easily create and share educational resources. However, they can't get it because they find it challenging to collaborate with other educators in real-time.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. CollabEdu.

CollabEdu: Real-Time Teacher Collaboration Tool : CollabEdu is a cloud-based platform that allows teachers to collaborate in real-time, co-create lesson plans, and share educational resources seamlessly. Of course it is much better than the stuff from Edmodo, or Google Classroom!

How to find Teachers

You can get insights about the pain points of teachers if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

Find out where teachers hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of teachers, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: CollabEdu: Real-Time Teacher Collaboration Tool.

I described the process here in my blog post: Identify a hungry audience.

If you do this manually, it may take you hours each day. Automate it, with a little help from the AI in CustomerPing!

If you think that one of those results looks like teachers wrote it, you can create a “customer radar station” on the forum where the post came from.
You describe what makes a post relevant to your business.
CustomerPing will “ping” you 24h a day, whenever teachers complain about their pet peeve: They find it challenging to collaborate with other educators in real-time.
Good for you because this is something that you can solve with collabEdu: Real-Time Teacher Collaboration Tool, right?
