Subscription web sites: How did you get your first customer?
run4yourlives: I don't know you, and I could probably churn out a bunch of semi-valuable tips, but instead of doing that, I'm going to suggest the following: Find a partner that has the business skills you lack in marketing/sales/promotion.I think you'll be much better off with someone like this worrying about these problems while you handle the technical realities. Once you get customers, the problems of getting them will seem trivial to the problem of keeping them.Good luck.
