Where to find gamers in order to convert them to customers
The idea that helps Gamers
Gamers want to easily find and play new indie games. However, they can't get it because they struggle to discover lesser-known indie games in a sea of popular titles.
Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. IndieQuest.
IndieQuest: Indie Game Discovery Platform : IndieQuest is a platform that connects gamers with indie game developers, helping users discover and play new, unique indie games easily. Of course it is much better than the stuff from Steam, or itch.io!
How to find Gamers
You can get insights about the pain points of gamers 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 gamers 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 gamers, 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: IndieQuest: Indie Game Discovery Platform.
