Hey dev.to fam! ๐
As an outreach expert, I often see how developers underestimate the power of building relationships beyond just writing great code. Whether youโre an indie dev launching a product, an open-source contributor, or looking for your next gig โ outreach can be a total game changer.
Hereโs why outreach matters for devs:
Showcase your work: Getting your projects or blog posts featured on relevant sites or newsletters can skyrocket your visibility.
Build collaborations: Outreach helps you connect with other devs, mentors, or companies for partnerships or gigs.
Grow your network: The tech world is all about who you know and what you know.
Quick tips to start outreach as a dev:
- Personalize your messages โ no copy-paste spam!
- Focus on mutual value, not just โWhat can I get?โ
- Be consistent but respectful in follow-ups.
- Leverage platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, and even GitHub Discussions to start conversations.
Outreach isnโt just for marketers โ itโs for anyone who wants to grow their impact and community.
