How do companies like Blue Apron/HelloFresh find early adopters?

The idea of not ordering food delivery, and not shopping for groceries is new and a discontinuous type of innovation, which requires a change in consumer behaviour.

How do these aforementioned companies find their early adopters? Everyone eats, so how do they find people willing to try this?

Press, advertising, outreach to their networks. The same way you find early adopters for anything!
