Made my first $120 with a Bubble app.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to experiment with Bubble to see how far I could push it to make a revenue generating app. I built MyRequestRoom.com, a way for musicians to accept digital requests safely in COVID (I moonlight as a piano player so the first customer is a location where I play). My co-workers are now all on it and the next step is user acquisition beyond the bar where I play.

What are the best resources on the marketing side to expand the audience for this type of product? I was thinking lead lists (there aren't that many piano bars though...) or FB ads (but then would want to learn about optimizing landing pages)

First revenue.

    Congrats on your first customers!! Any tips on learning bubble?

      Hi there -- I learned mostly on YouTube videos. Have you used any other nocode platforms / have you coded in the past?

    I have no idea what your site does.

      Well that's pretty good feedback! The target market is people who play at piano bars -- but I clearly have to do a better job of communicating what the product is, maybe with screen shots.

        There is no where on your site that communicates this. You explained by this in your OP but not on your site.

    Congrats on your first paying users, Matt!

    Before starting with any kind of user acquisition, build out the landing page so people can actually understand what the product is and why they should use it. One sentence is definitely not enough ;)

    Who exactly is your target audience?

      Thanks so much. Right now the target audience are piano bars and also individual musicians who take requests.

        OK, two ideas off the top of my head:

        • scrape all piano bars from Google Maps and reach out to them individually
        • post in all relevant Facebook groups, subreddits, and other communities where the musicians you want to target hang out (+ reach out to these musicians personally too if possible)
          Hard to say something more without knowing more about the product, so definitely start with adding more content to the landing page.

          Thank you for the Phantom Buster link, looks awesome!
