Because I struggled with consistency in my marketing efforts, I wrote a new tool that sends a "ping" to my mobile phone whenever some people on the Net are discussing the problem I solve in my business.<p>This "ping" is now the main trigger for me to jump into the conversation they are having, and help them solve their problem. The most ethical form of marketing that I know.<p>CustomerPing solves the consistency problem elegantly and sends new potential customers your way, every day. People enjoy your help, begin to trust you, and will eventually buy your products.<p>How it works:<p>- CustomerPing listens to RSS feeds (e.g. from Reddit, Mastodon, etc.) and runs the articles through a LLM that ranks each article vs. the relevance criteria that you specified.<p>- This means that you get only relevant articles where a future customer of yours is in pain. The AI filters out all the bragging, know-it-all's, "read my blog post"s, etc.<p>- It publishes the filtered articles via RSS again, each with an AI-generated summary and a relevance-percentage between 0 and 100%. It also contains a simple keyword filter so that the AI doesn't have to deal with totally off-topic stuff.<p>- The output is a new RSS feed that you can subscribe on your phone, in Slack, or whatever other tool you want.<p>Try this huge time-saver as a customer development tool for your startup as well, and give me some feedback about it.<p>Every new user gets 200 articles rated for free, so you can calmly try it out.<p>Click this link to see it: [CustomerPing.ai](<a href="https://customerping.ai" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://customerping.ai</a>) – so curious what you'll say!<p>Matthias<p>Founder, CustomerPing
If this works well this is brilliant. My first successful SaaS got most of its initial traffic from comments placed in places where people were discussing the issue I was solving. This was my main Marketing approach
