In the early days of boot strafinges, how do i get my message in front of my audience as much as possible? And when your boots strapping, you have to always remember, i have more time than money in the early days. The big players, they're not focusing on us o. Like influencers love working directly with founders. Would they rather talk with you, the person who made the product, made it all happen? Or would theyrather talk with some inturn who's been working there for one month and doesn't really know what's going on?"
