[PROGRESS] From Enterprise Tech Layoff to SaaS Founder: The Feb 1st Sprint
SAAS / APPS STORYWe’ve interviewed a diverse group of landlords, from 4-unit owners to 250-unit pros when I worked on the RE SaaS. Their needs vary from 'zero-headache' management to aggressive cost-cutting. I’m approaching the iOS app with the same lean mindset I used for my last RE SaaS: build fast, validate...- qaerst

[PROGRESS] From Enterprise Tech Layoff to SaaS Founder: The Feb 1st Sprint
SAAS / APPS STORYEarly traction is a great signal, but it isn't a business. My first SaaS solved a real problem, but I hit a brick wall: The Migration Friction. Even with a superior 'painkiller' solution, I was asking users to leave their current ecosystems for a slightly better experience. I spoke to 10 ICPs...- qaerst

SAAS / APPS STORYUpdate: The Power of the Pivot: Knowing When to Walk Away I launched my SaaS and saw some early traction, but the unit economics didn't add up. In this niche, the Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) is unsustainably high—which explains why the competition is burning through cash. Even with a...- qaerst

[PROGRESS] From Enterprise Tech Layoff to SaaS Founder: The Feb 1st Sprint
SAAS / APPS STORYBefore anyone asks: no, this isn’t a flashy "AI-disruptor" or a delusional social media play. I chose a boring niche: Property Management Software. I didn't guess. I mined local business databases and public revenue numbers to see who is actually making money. I found a competitor that has been...- qaerst

[PROGRESS] From Enterprise Tech Layoff to SaaS Founder: The Feb 1st Sprint
SAAS / APPS STORYHey everyone, I’ve spent the last few years in the "Cozy Slowlane." I had the classic setup: a tech consulting job, great pay, a state-of-the-art company car, and a portfolio of big-name enterprise projects. Then reality hit. The economy shifted, clients pulled back, and my entire team was...- qaerst
