Last August, I have read the book of 12 Week Plan by Brian Moran. This book helped me organize in how can I execute my marketing strategies to scale it and start generating revenue.
I’m currently building Verkisto, a service which helps bloggers get ideas quickly and generate blogs that are SEO-friendly.
Here’s my plan:
thing is, when executing my plan, I’m seeing some results but none of them generate revenue.
Threads and Twitter/X: I’m commenting on other people’s posts by offering them my service and I’ve gained some followers as a result but I’m not making money from them.
Instagram and TikTok: Made some short videos, people like these videos and visit my profile but none of them generate revenue (again).
I have also tried Reddit by using related subreddits but most users also promote their services all the time and the ones that seem interested, they don’t pay for said subscriptions. And those who seem interested, they are broke.
I have also tried reaching out to influencers but none of them have answered to my emails and comments. The way I found them is by using services like SpyFu to learn how similar apps to mine get their traffic and found links to blogs where they are showcased. After that, I would reach out to these influencers on twitter or threads to see if they’re willing to collaborate but none of them responded.
According to Google Analytics data, I had 72 users in the last 30 days but none of them have converted. Most them come from Reddit, Twitter and Threads where I showed them the link to my app.
What approach should I take from here? How would you turn things around if your goal was also making 6K USD monthly?

Here’s my plan:
| Tactic | Due | Begin in | End in |
| Identify top customer segments and ideal channels for acquisition. | Week 1 | Week 1 | Week 2 |
| Engage in cold outreach (10 potential leads per day). | Each week | Week 2 | Week 12 |
| Launch targeted ad campaigns and track conversion rates. | Each week | Week 3 | Week 12 |
| Build partnerships with complementary brands or influencers. | Each week | Week 4 | Week 12 |
| Offer limited-time promotions or discounts to encourage sign-ups. | Each week | Week 5 | Week 12 |
| Set up a referral program to incentivize current users. | Week 5 | Week 5 | Week 12 |
| Track key metrics (CAC, conversion rate, LTV) and adjust strategies. | Each week | Week 6 | Week 12 |
