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)

I have never sold anything. But as a cheapskate when it comes to online subscriptions I think my input might hold some value.

The way I get drawn in is by first trying the product for free. If your product doesn't have a free tier or free trial then I recommend you creating it.
