That's for your links. It will be good for me to follow along.
Do you think a manual sales approach would help you? Like, find customers you think would like your product and cold email/call them.

I do think it's a good option, as I only need another 6 subscribers to the top end plan to reach profitability. In fact I've recently been trying a cold email outreach campaign, so far I've only sent about 90 emails, 50% open rate, 12% clicked through, but no sign ups. There will be more about that in part 3
