Youve got $1000/month to get your first 30 users, whats your playbook?

I’m getting close to launching Kogenie, a tool that helps marketers and copywriters create multiple static ads in minutes with human-like, hyper-targeted copy and ready-to-publish creatives. Think Canva, but focused on ads.

Here’s where I’m at:

  • Budget: around $1,000/month, but half already goes into development and content.
  • Goal for the next 4–6 weeks: • Get the first 30 users to try the product
  • Build a small, loyal early community of marketers/founders who actually need ads regularly
  • Context: • No existing audience • Early stage, so I’m looking for effective ideas

If you were in my shoes, no audience, $1000 a month, and a few weeks before launch, how would you go about finding those first 30 users and getting early traction?

We will aim for investment sooner or later. What do you think can help in finding users in that sense as well?
