    Creating an SaaS startup without being able to code.

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    It was recommended by a friend. I found it very helpful on how to find/choose and test an idea. Idea extraction 1 client, 1 problem, 1 solution It really helped me break down each stage I needed to go through and get the project rolling. It made the process manageable through bite sized...

    Creating an SaaS startup without being able to code.

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Hey thank you, I appreciate the compliment. The foundation is definitely not mine.. When I said worked on it, I meant I studied it and watched the tutorials etc.. I definitely cannot take any credit for creating or owning that course! I don't think I can edit my original post because as it was...

    Creating an SaaS startup without being able to code.

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    I'm having some growing pains this week, as the project grows so does the daily routine requirements. Gaining a client means I need to be a lot more regimented and on top of things. I listened to a great podcast episode called "Win The Day" (Highly recommend for anyone looking to get a routine...

    I hope everyone reading is having a productive Friday. I'm still riding the high of getting my first customer earlier this week. I got paid today for a four month user period up front. I set it to 4 months for a number of reasons. It locks the customer in for a time period I'm comfortable...

    Creating an SaaS startup without being able to code.

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Success!! The presentation went well. Customer1 was really happy with how the SaaS worked and looked. I learned a lot during the Q&A section too. I definitely feel the software is adding value and moving in the right direction. Customer 1 is more than happy to start paying a minimal monthly fee...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    My presentation plan for later this week. For past jobs I've done a few presentations for other peoples SaaS. The biggest thing I've learned from these are to keep the talk time sort and get the product into the customers hands. The plan is to split the presentation into 3 parts: Powerpoint...

    Creating an SaaS startup without being able to code.

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Good progress made last week. The website is now complete and the initial stages of SaaS is linked to it. I'm really happy with how its looking. I wanted to have this finished before I presented the software to either client so that the project would look a little more complete/professional. I...

    Where to Park the Little Money that I have?

    INVESTING 
    @MJ DeMarco , I probably could have explained it a little better. Its not government sponsored in the sense that the government themselves don't give you the return on your money, they just don't charge you tax on the earnings. It was introduced and came into effect in January 1st 2009 by the...

    Where to Park the Little Money that I have?

    INVESTING 
    I'm not sure of your location but in Canada we have the option of a TFSA (Tax Free Savings Account). With TFSA your bank invest it for you most likely to get a higher return than 1% usually promising somewhere between 5-8%. I use a mutual funds TFSA to invest in longterm options and only put in...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Its a slow week... Slow weeks are like the hard yards in football, the 3rd and 1 if you will of the entrepreneurial world. As tempting as it is to throw long again and aim for maximum reward, all I need is that 1 yard get to the next phase to regroup. This takes something which in the past I...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Hey great question! Short answer: Yes and no. Long answer: The previous job I worked gave me access to a wide variety of businesses in a number of industries and at the time was large market research but I only realized it later. (Opportunities are all around us hardest part can be...

    Creating an SaaS startup without being able to code.

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Sorry for the long opening post. I was asked by @Young-Gun to start a progress thread on my experiences to date of starting an SaaS business. I have spent the last 6 month putting plans in place to hopefully start a successful business but the foundation started a little earlier. 2013- The...

    I was just talking with my brother about this the other day (brief conversation with second hand information). He has a summer internship lined up with a German tracking and tracing company that is trying to execute this. The European Union are introducing legislation that all over the counter...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Honestly, I only joined Friday at the recommendation of my buddy @Fox . The plan was to meet like minded individuals and document the journey exactly like you're doing. I was waiting to get a feel for the Forum before kicking off a thread. If you think its something that would be of value, I...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    All very good points, I can see you have this well thought out! Yes, I had thought that they market was possibly too small, I had not seen written earlier in the thread but I wanted to push you for that answer just to ensure you had looked at all options and with an answer like that its clear...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Great thread, having gone through some of this process to date myself I can tell you're on the right track and dropping some serious knowledge for anyone thinking of doing the same. I'm in the process of completing my own SaaS at the moment. I just received my first 3 modules of software that I...

    Money or Wisdom?

    MINDSET 
    I would place having wisdom ahead of having money. Having the wisdom to create, add and find value would eventually lead to success/money. Having money without the wisdom or knowledge to use it wisely could possibly lead to failure/loss of money. Money is a tool Wisdom is the...
