Ask HN: How are you acquiring your first hundred users?

I am building a B2C AI SaaS with $50/month price. How would you go about getting with first 100 users and then the next 500 users.

What we are currently doing: 1) Cold outreach to power users - to convert them into affiliates. 2) Cold outreach to individuals who have target ICP communities. 3) SEO for more long term (not for the first 500)

Forget the usual SEO and focus on high-quality, in-depth textual and video content.

Build your list for email marketing.

Paid ads (FB, Google) to drive targeted traffic. PS - I do that.

How do you do that? This is where I struggle.
