Ok so blogging on your own site? Just pushing out blogs every day yeah?

AMAZING! Kudos to you and your team!

I am also building a SaaS, almost done MVP dev. but I can totally imagine how good that must feel to get first few customers.

Regarding the blogging, did you create your own article website? Or write for an existing place?

I literally have zero clue about the blogging part of things for marketing the business - feel free to educate me haha.

But I have been hearing a LOT of really good stuff about the SEO blogging being super effective...

Trusting too much in the conventional way of doing things needing (passion, interest, even skills etc.) to build a profitable business.

Thank you for sharing and well done, that certainly is an impressive timeline you've managed to explain through.

  1. Where did you find your first people for your waitinglist, i.e how did you market it to get these people interested.
  2. Where did the sales come from, Product Hunt, email list, or something else?
  3. What are your plans for marketing it, and what has worked so far, as well as what hasn't worked?

Thank you, I wish you all the success and blessing to continue doing this and to really turn this into something big! Good luck, and if you manage to answer these questions, thank you kindly in advance.

Thank you so much for making this post - you don't realize how helpful it is for my team and myself, sharing it with them right now!

Currently building a B2B SaaS as a first-time founder and have been digging up the internet to find things to help with the process of finding waiting list signups.

This post was super helpful in 1. how realistic it is - and I liked your comment below about the safety it brings > the hyper growth some tech companies have and then burn out into nothing down the line - some great points to unpack there, and 2. in being open about what you did try, that didn't work, and also WHY you tried those things - that has so much value for me because sometimes I may want to try something other founders have tried that didn't work, and explain away the warning signs with my WHY being different. Thanks!

I really like the "request a demo" instead of a signup, makes me feel a lot more comfortable giving my details, as I don't feel like my email is now going to get even more full than it already is with spam mail - definitely going to be borrowing that!

The website looks super great, I like how concise it is, as well as clear. I understand it right from the first few graphics - those graphics help a lot! Nice touch at the end with the "oh- ..." i liked that haha, made me chuckle - it makes you feel like the people on the other end are humans just like you, so kudos there.

Going to jump straight to your DMs now and ask for some more details about what you tried etc.
