Where to find filmmakers in order to convert them to customers
The idea that helps Filmmakers
Filmmakers want to find funding for their next film project. However, they can't get it because they struggle to connect with potential investors.
Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. FilmFund Connect.
FilmFund Connect: A Funding Platform for Filmmakers : FilmFund Connect is a software platform that connects filmmakers with potential investors, making it easier for them to secure funding for their film projects. Of course it is much better than the stuff from Kickstarter, or Indiegogo!
How to find Filmmakers
You can get insights about the pain points of filmmakers 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 filmmakers 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 filmmakers, 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: FilmFund Connect: A Funding Platform for Filmmakers.
