You have an idea. But no customers yet, and no budget to go get them. Here's the truth: the founders who get their first 10 customers fastest don't outspend everyone else. They out-think them. They find the right people, say the right thing, and convert conversations into commitments. Register now and come ready to take notes.
What You'll Learn:
  • A step-by-step framework to find your first customers in places you're already overlooked;
  • How to write a three-sentence outreach message that doesn't read like a sales pitch;
  • What a "validation sale" is and how to use it to de-risk your idea before building more;
  • How to build a simple referral loop from your very first customer conversation;
  • Which AI tools cut your customer discovery time in half without sacrificing quality.

Who Should Attend: 
  • Experienced professionals who know their industry but have never sold their own product;
  • First-time solo founders who are stuck between building and selling;
  • AI-curious professionals who want to use AI to accelerate their go-to-market from day one;
  • Pre-revenue founders who need to prove demand before their runway runs out.
