Disclaimer: I am not writing any of these to brag, just to encourage first time entrepreneurs who are finding it difficult.<p>I recently put out my new app wolfpacktales and like any Entrepreneur will do, I pitched the big name blogs/sites. As it usually happens, I didn’t even get a response from the writers I pitched. I wasn’t deterred.<p>Wolfpacktales: Just think Campfire meets social networking. It’s a group conversation app, where users create private groups (I call wolfpacks) and invite people from their social networks – Facebook, Twitter, Gmail & LinkedIn – to join the conversation.<p>After realizing there would be no success with these big blogs, I pretty much invited all 546 of my Facebook friends to a random wolfpack I created. I also took to the smaller blogs, startup submission sites etc and pitched about 50 of them. I knew all I needed to get going was just a little initial traction just because of the inherently viral nature of the app. That’s exactly what happened. On Friday, I had seen 120 people signed up, that number kept increasing over the weekend and as of this Morning (Monday), there are 2,567 users. I know it’s not a big number by any means, but it shows potential. And yes, I do realize that GroupMe didn’t take all that money just to market their product…I’m just noting that no money, and no big press doesn’t disqualify your product.<p>Moral Lesson: Read the last line.<p>Will write another update in a few days/weeks.<p>Link: http://wolfpacktales.com (It’s still very much new, so I welcome feedback!)
