I was sending out email/video messages asking companies what problems/challenges they are facing so I can collect data and find a suitable solution to the needs. The response rate was insane low (below 5%).
After some discussion with some people they suggested me to search it more nearby first and expand later on. So I decided I should focus on companies more nearby my place (The Netherlands). I focussed on English customers first so I could outsource my work (since it's harder and more expensive to hire Dutch people).
Well okay, let's follow these suggestions and I should stick with Dutch companies first.
What it makes hard for me is I don't own any skill (did one study which is aviation), I don't know more than the basics of marketing & sales. How do I decide what kind of services/products I want to offer, which people need and what kind of niche to pick?
I'ts making me insecure because I don't know shit about running a business, getting clients and stuff like that. I'm still in the research phase. Well basically I'm nowhere but that's my next step.
Currently I have no clue where to start or get going.
I thought I was doing really well, sending out messages, trying to get in contact with other people but not getting any feedback is kind of demotivating (I won't quit). So for sure I need to do it different this time.
