I’ve developed a platform for MBA graduate students, offering 1:1 mock case interviews with former/active consultant experts, currently focusing on consulting.

The app is still in pre-alpha and fully functional for both sides, I'm in the phase of onboarding consultants who may be interested in joining and start posting their coaching offers on the platform and making extra cash per month by helping students be better at case interviews.

However I struggle to find consultants, I get few responses to my invitation messages, and this slows my growth because I need consultants in the app before I start looking for students.

I would like to hear your advice on that and if you have some tips.

One possible strategy is to identify niche professional forums or groups where they gather online and promote your platform there.

Additionally, consider offering exclusive perks or incentives to attract consultants, making participation more appealing.

Because let’s be real—most of the people that you are looking for are already well sought after or own businesses of their own.

What are you offering them which they’re not already getting paid for (or paying themselves for) somewhere else?
