Where to find entrepreneurs in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Entrepreneurs

Entrepreneurs want to raise funds for their projects through online platforms. However, they can't get it because they have limited access to a diverse pool of investors and struggle to stand out among other crowdfunding campaigns.

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

Crowdfunding Matching Service : FundConnect is a platform that connects entrepreneurs with a diverse pool of potential investors based on their project needs and preferences. It utilizes AI algorithms to match projects with suitable investors. Of course it is much better than the stuff from Kickstarter, or Indiegogo!

How to find Entrepreneurs

You can get insights about the pain points of entrepreneurs 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 entrepreneurs 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 entrepreneurs, 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: Crowdfunding Matching Service.

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!

  • You describe what makes a post relevant to your business.
  • CustomerPing will “ping” you 24h a day, whenever entrepreneurs complain about their pet peeve: They have limited access to a diverse pool of investors and struggle to stand out among other crowdfunding campaigns.
