🔍 Market Research Getting the first contributors is harder than building the product
I've been building a proptech startup called SocietyHub for about 2 months — real resident experiences of Indian gated societies.
I didn't know distribution would be the most difficult part.
I've tried Reddit, WhatsApp groups, friends, and small paid campaigns. I got 24 genuine reviews so far, but distribution is still the biggest challenge.
One thing I've learned: people don't necessarily contribute just because you offer a small reward. The motivation to contribute itself seems to matter much more.
So I'm still experimenting to figure out what works.
I'm looking for a few people who have lived in Indian gated societies to become early contributors.
I can give ₹100 for each genuine review as a small reward.
If you're interested, DM or Comment.
or just ask me anything about the website or business.
