Early stage startup founders often think marketing is something you do *after* you hit product-market fit. In fact, marketing is essential to *achieving* product-market fit. You need it from the beginning. This course teaches proven tactics you can use today.Hey y'all! Super excited to be hunting Sonia's very first course!!

Sonia has been working in early stage startups for 8 years now, both as a fractional CMO and as the first marketer at Atmos, a home building startup where she led growth from $0 through YC, Seed, and Series A. 

Along the way I've benefitted a TON from her advice. She always has the most useful tactics to help early-stage companies find their initial niche. You'll be able to go through this course quickly and easily come away with a dozen or more things that you can implement immediately in your startup, each of which increase your odds of finding product-market fit faster.

Founders, would love to hear what kinds of questions you have or things that are top of mind for you when it comes to marketing!Hey Sonia! The course looks like a powerful one. It's true that founders often hesitate on focusing to MKT and this can be more than helpful on that. Hope all the makers feel the same and wish you all the best hereCongratulations on the launch, @soniabaschez 
Absolutely spot on! Many early-stage founders overlook the importance of marketing in the journey to product-market fit. 
This course sounds like a fantastic resource. Can't wait to see the impact it makes! 🔥Cool concept, launching courses on product hunt aimed at early-stage startups. I'd imagine heaps of founders here would be interested. Good luck @nbashaw 🤠

Steph & Lucas@stephnass congrats on the launch! What stack did you build this with?@rgndws Haha that's a question for @lucasroquilly@stephnass @rgndws hey Philipp, same stack as usual: rawdogging PHP, JS, HTML, CSS with jQuery and Bootstrap (no framework) 😁Steph and Lucas, good job. Appreciate you incorporated some perks, map but predominantly educational materials for newbies :) Wish you GL with the launch. These aspects I like the most.@busmark_w_nika Thanks Nika, and really glad you appreciate the educational materials. Many founders just want to "rush" to VCs and fail at raising. With a bit more insights, they could increase their chances by a lot. That's why we put a lot of emphasis on the knowledge, and not just the tools. It's an uphill battle, but thanks for highlighting it! :D@stephnass Noticed it first because I put emphasis on education first (one of my priorities in life) :D so I was like: WOOOOW! :D keep going! :)Looks cool. I used Brieflink for quite sometime, but ultimately had to revert back to docsend and drive as the mentioned one gets too slow often. Hope the experience would be smooth with OpenVC Decks.@ashrahman Please feel free to test by yourself and tell us what you think about the experience 🤩Great product! I've used docsend in the past and it sucked. I remembered how it messed up my deck's formatting and of course, it's not free.
