Our first growth hack worked.
Quick context: we've built a creator-payments platform
@BuildWithGrove. Think Linktree, but with paid messaging and paid content built in.
Two weeks ago, we started pre-registering creators on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and X. People with 25k-250k followers who never asked to join. We signed them up, emailed them, then tipped their content for a couple days. $0.01 to $0.10 per tip.
Today, one of them (a creator with ~60k followers on X) posted a screenshot of our platform asking their audience what this platform even is.
My partner,
@fredt_io, jumped in, answered their questions, and converted them to a user.
Total cost of that acquisition: less than $1.00.
You don't need to wait for creators to find you. Go find them, show them something real, and let curiosity do the rest.
Join thousands of others who are already getting paid for their content on X:
