Transitioning from pre-revenue to bringing in your first paying customers is a key inflection point for any startup. How do you know if you have product-market fit? How do you find customers that are willing to pay for your product? Once you land your first customers, how do you scale customer acquisition? During this interactive online event, Rami Essaid will answer these questions and share more tips for startup founders for landing their first customers and scaling up to $1M in revenue and beyond. There will also be a long Q&A session where you can ask Rami questions.
