How I got my first 7k users with just $230:

Ran X/Twitter ads ($10/day for 3 days)

Did basic SEO (ranked on “YouTube AI chat” related keywords)

Cold emailed small influencers (worked with 2 for $100 each)

Total spent: $230

Revenue so far:

6 lifetime users ($49 each) → $294

15 monthly users ($20/month) → $300/month

Total revenue: $594 in the first month Monthly recurring revenue (MRR): $300

Simple moves. No fancy hacks. Just tested fast and kept it lean.
