Hi.
This thread's main purpose is to hold myself accountable regarding this project. I hope to update this thread at least once a week.
If I don't achieve this I'm a pussy bitch.
Anyone who's (or had been) on a similar journey can come share some ideas or tips.
Once I get there, the next step will be scaling up, so a totally different journey.
If you want to get into B2C you'll need a shit load of marketing resources (ie. money or fame) and the money won't be great (unless you have 1000s of paying customers).
B2B on the other hand requires relatively little marketing effort and the money's great because businesses are ready to pay more if your offer's returned value justifies its price.
Weird?
I have an idea which I'm trying to validate by talking to people in the field, but it's gonna take some time. There are already a few SaaS implementing some of the main features, but I plan to add more on top which would make it more powerful (and therefore premium) but those additional features are what I am trying to validate.
It should deal with a problem within the marketing field.
What does this mean?
No unnecessary extravagance. No waste of time or money: Implement the MVP with the least money and/or time.
How?
Money: At first focus on mail/linkedin outreach.
Time: Use of nocode tools wherever I can.
I have no domain or landing page yet. I plan on making them once I talk to few people in the fields to "pre-validate" the idea.
I will try to pivot the SaaS towards another problem or just find a new idea.
1- Talk to potential customers and draw out the product's features
2- Get the first paying customers
Position my offer:
1- Competitor analysis to tune my offer
2- Make my offer a GSO

Objective:
Launching a B2B SaaS and getting to ~$1k MRR.Why $1k ???
Pretty low, right?Once I get there, the next step will be scaling up, so a totally different journey.
Why B2B?
Because B2C is a pain in the ass.If you want to get into B2C you'll need a shit load of marketing resources (ie. money or fame) and the money won't be great (unless you have 1000s of paying customers).
B2B on the other hand requires relatively little marketing effort and the money's great because businesses are ready to pay more if your offer's returned value justifies its price.
What will my SaaS do?
Not sure yet.Weird?

How do I plan to implement it?
Lean startup? Fuck no, we're talking straight outta siberian gulag startup.What does this mean?
