How to get build in public YouTubers to promote your developer tool
- 1
Start with 20–30 good fits
Pick creators whose recent videos match what you made, who posted in the last month, and whose typical views are steady. Mid-size and small channels reply far more often than the biggest ones.
- 2
Write to each one personally
Mention a recent video of theirs, say in one line what your developer tool is and why their audience would care, and make the offer clear: free access, a fee, or both. UGC Finder writes this email for every creator.
- 3
Follow up once, then track it
Creators get a lot of email. A short, friendly follow-up after a week is normal. Cross off who you've contacted so you (and your team) never email the same person twice.
