Keep writing about real benefits of using your projects, be patient (don't bet on something that might not be ready to become a big hit yet), be transparent and have a low level of shame (don't be afraid to ask) as every failure is an opportunity to learn and improve things unless you quit. Not a lot of people do that. Similar to a job, true innovation includes tasks that are really boring but necessary.

Once you see someone doing the same, converting from a user to an advocate, then things will become easier and you'll start getting more feedback.

Last but not least, tell us what worked in your case and what didn't work. If everything was easy, everything would be boring, so such tasks are by definition hard :)
