hokihy72··on Ask HN: How did you acquire your first 100 users?
We stopped selling it last year to focus on our next product, which is aimed to solve the root of the email problem. It definitely has a future, so stay tuned!

But through working with our customers for years, we saw that while we really helped people get their email more organized, we weren't solving the root problem: that anyone can dump anything they want into your inbox in the first place.

We felt called to double down on a killer solution we figured out for that problem first (https://throttlehq.com/).

For us it was through a Kickstarter (https://medium.com/@alexobenauer/how-i-launched-my-company-w...), and the majority of the first 100 backers (that I didn't already know) were from Hacker News.
