If the bio says "web agency owner" my dm is..

Hey X 👋
Can you advise me if @vitalwidgets can save you time and ship websites faster?

(That's it, more details if they reply)

My cold DM process

1. Search "webflow", "static website", "frontend" & other relevant terms

2. Go to "Latest" tab, find recently active people who are tweeting about it

3. Scan the bio, shoot a short & relevant DM

Questions friends asked me at a reunion today

"Do you have investors?"
"Why aren't you raising funds?"
"You even serious?"

The "raise capital, build startup" path has been over sold, over told & over glorified. Its nauseating. But who'd explain it to them?

I need to follow more people who are tweeting about sales and marketing for indiehackers/bootstrappers. Any recommendations?

I have so much to learn and develop these skills

Do you really read the long ass description that makers write on their @producthunt launch? 👀

..asking for a friend

@adamlyttleapps It has changed my mindset completely.

e.g. since I'm getting decent response from profile visits - after they read my bio and pinned posts. I'm not investing on a landing page atm. Not sure if I'm optimising for max gain with min effort or I'm being plain lazy 👀

I'm building the email capture widget now. This is how it will work.
