How I Got 100K Clients with My Music Tech Startup – No Ads, No Investors

When I launched Afroplug, I had no investors.
No marketing budget.
No growth hack playbook.

Just a laptop, passion, a clear mission, and consistency.

Today, in 4 Years:

Afroplug has reached over 100,000 music creators worldwide — and we’re still bootstrapped.

This blog post shares the real story behind that growth.
And if you’re building something too, my new ebook might help you:
100K Clients – Music Tech Founder Guide (No Ads, No Investors)
Now available.

Why I Started Afroplug

Afroplug started with a simple idea:
Make quality music tools accessible for creators around the world.

At the time, I was producing, DJing, and creating content—and I realized how many creators couldn’t find sounds or plugins that really spoke to their culture or favorite afro genres. Most platforms felt distant, lack of resources or low quality.

So I built something different.
A space where music meets innovation, with curated tools and real community support.

📈 How We Reached 100K Clients (Without Ads or Outside Money)

No secret formula. Just a few clear pillars:

  • Take Care of Afroplug customers with Premium items and tools on www.afroplug.com
  • Solving real problems for real creators
  • Collaborating with trusted platforms like Splice, FL Studio, LANDR, and Tracklib
  • Focusing on organic growth: SEO, content, community, email
  • Bootstrapping: every euro earned was reinvested

All of this led us to 100K+ users—and a growing global brand.
