Ask HN: How can I reach out to marketing agencies in the US?

Hi,

I want to reach out to social media marketing agencies in the US, but not sure where to start apart from searching on Google. I am the founder of Scribblewithai.com. It's a tool that lets user create social media posts using AI. I believe this tool will be really helpful for the agencies as it lets them create content at scale.

How shall I start to reach out to my potential customers? Is there any forum you are aware of that I can post on?

I don't want to be "that guy" but the Scribblewithai site flipped around so much I eventually gave up on its weird loading sequence, and expected entirely the worst. I have no idea what it was supposed to be even after it finally appeared.

Maybe my network had a slow moment. I don't know. But there was way too much flickering about for my taste. It came across as a whole lot of ads (that apparently were the content since they were all about garlic!) that took up too much space on the screen, and I never actually found the part where scribbling comes into play. Way too much scrolling, too.

You definitely need a co-pilot to turn this into something. You can't just ask AI to output stuff, and expect it to be good. This whole layout is super slow compared to the normal way people search for things.

Im thinking LinkedIn cold outreach would be your safe and easy bet. Start with a niche, say crowdfunding agencies or retail management agencies. These are examples from my world, and founders i know they all hire social media managers to create blog posts for them, do ghost linkedin writing etc. Then there are also big industry events like Retail Innovation Conference in Chicago, where many agencies exhibit, so you could find many of them in one place. Hope this helps. Good luck!
