When I got into SAAS, I thought it went like this:

  • Build a project you have in your head
  • Profit

No one told me about validation, marketing, and sales! And I only figured it out 6 months after coding up my first project, finding 0 users. Why is it so hard to understand the importance of these concepts for programmers? It's like we insist on only learning them after we fail.
