Ecommerce SaaS GTM Support

EIOS is a newly launched SaaS tool for physical-product ecommerce founders. Before making consequential decisions around inventory, suppliers, promotions, ads, offers or launches, EIOS identifies risks and missing information and gives a PROCEED, INVESTIGATE or WAIT recommendation with a concrete next action.

The product is live. I now need a hands-on GTM/customer-development freelancer to help validate the market and acquire our first real users.

Your work:
• Build a focused list of qualified solo/small-team physical-product ecommerce founders.
• Execute personalized outreach via LinkedIn, email and relevant communities.
• Recruit founders to test EIOS using a real business decision they are currently facing.
• Collect structured feedback: what EIOS caught, what was obvious/wrong, whether it changed their action, and whether they would use it again.
• Test the key objection: why use EIOS instead of ChatGPT or Claude?
• Once value is demonstrated, test willingness to pay and recommend the strongest initial GTM approach.

Initial targets: 50–100 qualified prospects, tracked outreach, and 10 genuine pilot users with documented feedback.

This is NOT a paid ads, SEO, social-media-management or mass lead-generation project. I want hands-on customer development and quality conversations, not thousands of scraped leads.

In your proposal, tell me where you would find the first 20 qualified founders, how you would approach them, and one example of how you personally acquired early users for a new product.
