    $1k/MRR SaaS by end of 2027 challenge (Progress Thread)

    EXECUTION

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION

The product works, but I don’t yet have recurring active users or real paying customers. I’m starting this progress thread to document what happens as I focus...

    I built an Amazon pre-launch tool. Now I need to find out if the problem is actually real.

    STORY 
    I have been working on a small SaaS called LAUNCHGUARD. The idea is actually pretty simple. Before someone launches a product on Amazon, there is a lot of information around that product. The listing, product label, packaging, Declaration of Conformity, test reports and other documents. My...

    Looking for Strategic Direction on a SaaS I've Built. Scale, Partner, or Exit?

    Threw my old search code on the Shopify app store

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    A few years ago I needed fuzzy search for my own e-com store. Vendors were way too expensive so I reverse engineered my own. Worked great for that one store. Woke up past Christmas with the idea to just throw it on the Shopify app store. See what happens. Used Claude Code to build the theme app...

    Back after years of grinding and finally seeing the flywheel spin

    INTRO 
    Hey everyone, Back on the forum after lurking years ago. At the time I had an agency with a partner. Read the Fastlane book and it clicked. Classic time-for-money trap.

    SAAS / APPS STORY 
    Hey 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...

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Background Five years ago, I read The Millionaire Fastlane. It changed my view of entrepreneurship. The book clarified my thoughts on money and society. I thought investing would make me rich. I kept hearing, “All the rich do real estate,” plus talk of stocks and forex. TMF flipped that. It...
