HOW TO GROW YOUR MARKETPLACE TO 500,000 USERS

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

PromptBase has 500,000 users and roughly 300,000 listings. It started with no users, two listings, and a bad website. The founder became seller number one, uploaded the first prompts himself, and found the next sellers in Reddit threads. He messaged them after their first sale, fixed bugs quickly, and shared their listings. Storefronts and lower fees gave sellers a reason to bring buyers, while every prompt became a page Google could find. The marketplace grew by hand before it grew through sellers and search.
