asked a broad question that a lot of members started answering from different angles. Rather than offer a single "best" idea, the practical approach is to convert opinions into small, measurable experiments that prove demand and show whether a channel scales.

Start with a repeatable microtest process you can run in a week or two:

  • Pick one clear outcome (trial signups, first purchases, email opt-ins) and one primary metric to judge success.
  • Create the smallest viable offer and a single landing experience that communicates the value proposition.
  • Drive a small, focused audience to that page from one acquisition channel only.
  • Run the test to a fixed sample size or budget, then measure conversions and cost per customer.
  • Compare results to your business threshold; either iterate or scale the creative and audience.

Track simple metrics: CAC = total marketing + sales spend / customers acquired and approximate LTV using average order value, purchase frequency and expected customer lifespan. Useful references on building repeatable digital tests and on lifetime-value/CAC concepts can be found at HubSpot and Investopedia respectively (, ).

Building on comments from , and the caution from , prioritize permission-based outreach, good tracking, and short test cycles. This turns opinions into data you can scale.

From what I learned running shops long ago it's never changed from:

  1. Products that people want.
  2. Service.
  3. Value.
  4. A little marketing.
