Step-by-step action plan for getting your first 10 customers, broken into 30-minute activities:
PROMPT
“I’m building a [describe your product/service briefly] and want to get my first 10 paying customers as fast as possible—without spending money on ads.
Create a 5-day action plan for me that breaks the process into 30-minute focused activities. Each activity should be highly specific, actionable, and move me closer to the goal.
✅ Start with validating demand (e.g., outreach to people with the problem).
✅ Include scripts for DMs, emails, or posts I can use.
✅ Prioritize scrappy, direct methods like posting in niche communities, cold DMs, and asking for referrals.
✅ Assume I don’t yet have a product—just an idea and willingness to create a lightweight version (Notion doc, Google Sheet, or Airtable) to deliver value.
✅ End with strategies to leverage those first 10 customers into 20+.
Use the tone of Business Juice (casual, confident, no-fluff, a bit cheeky).
Output the plan as:
This is for a solo founder with limited time and no audience—keep it scrappy and practical.”
