Can't get customers? One founder offers free sales help

A community member in the MicroSaaS space is offering free sales and marketing advice to solo founders who have built a product but can't figure out how to sell it. It's a practical, low-cost way to get unstuck if selling feels like a wall.

Many solo founders who build software are great at making the product but have no idea how to find paying customers. This Reddit post offers a helping hand — the poster has sales experience and is willing to give direct, personalized feedback to anyone who shares their situation in the comments.

For a one-person business owner who is stuck at the 'how do I get my first customers' stage, this kind of peer mentorship inside a community can be faster and more honest than generic blog advice. It's a good reminder that asking for help openly in niche communities often gets real, actionable responses.

Key points

  • Free sales advice offered to solo founders who can't convert their product into customers
  • Poster has hands-on sales experience and will review individual situations
  • Especially useful for developer-founders who are comfortable building but not selling
  • Share your situation in the comments to get specific feedback
  • Shows the value of asking openly in small, focused online communities
