    Yup, it's like Buffer, but more like Edgar. We're adding instagram currently.

    yo, I used to co-own amzshark.com and you were a badass competitor. I remember we were developing a directly competitive product but it never made it out of beta. Sending emails is stressful! Keep it up man! :)

    Whatsup everyone! I am a longtime lurker and once did an AMA about how I successfully bootstrapped my last SAAS here: https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/grew-a-saas-from-0-to-30-000-monthly-revenue-within-1-year-1mm-v-0-invested.64473/ I've been away working my butt off for 4...

    This is called amassing technical debt, and yea, it's a decent idea and is pretty normal. Debt is a tool. The code can be imperfect but the product should be perfect. A MVP is a perfect version of a minimal version of your product, not a shitty version of the whole thing. The reason for this...

    Alright, I've replied to your email. Please make sure that the discretion I am asking for is enforced in this thread. Thanks. Customer churn is 14% monthly and MRR grows (or has grown) at 10% month on month lately. So if hypothetically we have 100 customers then during a 30-day period we'd...

    Enterprise b2b can be pretty low-touch. For example if you make something that helps someone in, for example, a sales role, do their job better, and it's only $50 a month, you'll soon be able to scan through your customer list and see that you have customers who work on the sales teams at big...

    So small business b2b sales doesn't really require a sales team. But enterprise b2b definitely does. Enterprise b2b is cool because the decision makers/buyers are playing with OPM (other people's money) and so it's sort of similar to selling to the government, from what I can gather. You can...

    copying and pasting the below from a question I answered via PM. This is relevant to anyone searching for a SAAS idea: It is my firm belief that 'email' as a protocol is a catch-all and we use it when we don't have anything better. Anytime email is used frequently to perform a task that it...

    So this is exactly why I love the software business so much. The truth is that it's possible to sell ice to eskimos, or worthless diet pills to obese women, or timeshares to middle-class Americans. Often, marketing and sales are what actually "make the money" in a business. Actually creating...

    sorry for formatting... For you personally, you need a stronger tech background or a technical partner. Otherwise it will simply be extremely difficult (if not impossible) for you to compete with most of the people out there running SAAS. If any staff want to send me a private message...

    Programming (I helped) and spamming Facebook groups. Literally 99% of our growth came from word-of-mouth which came from word-of-mouth which came from word-of-mouth which came from posting in Facebook groups and being mentioned on podcasts. Facebook groups are one of the greatest-value forms of...

    Go through the following books/courses before starting. You could read/do them all within 2 weeks, which is roughly the amount of time I like to let an idea sit (so the passion fades and I can see it without rose-colored glasses). In descending order of importance: Lean startup (or the...

    Sorry for being a noob, but HOW DO I GET THAT "ASK ME ANYTHING" tag on this thread so it appears when people look for ASK ME ANYTHING threads? Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. I grew up on direct response marketing and the generally shady affiliate industry and made my first real money...
