Bootstrapping Saas

A tonne of things went on and I had a lot to say

Show Notes

Two big announcements:
  • Next show (EP17) I will have a guest who I will announce a few days before the show. He is a sales marketer for B2B #Saas businesses
  • I have new sponsors for the show starting EP17. One will be sponsoring for 6 weeks and the other for 3. They are both services and products made for us
  • I will be taking off for a few days just to recharge.
  • Doing things differently with consulting: working hourly vs fixed pricing
  • New consultancy gig that will help me financially continue running Claritask
  • What is bootstrapping? (to me)
  • Talking about Philip's article: https://twitter.com/valsopi/status/1163569933894266888 and my response to it: https://twitter.com/valsopi/status/1163569943931170818 — on maybe there's no journey really (please, listen to the details of it)
  • The tweet that resonated a lot with others
  • Healthy habits (physically/mentally) as I go into September with Claritask on one side and the new consultancy gig on the side
  • Don't follow Basecamp (or anyone else)
  • It matters "Who" is making the product. How you can be the "who" behind the product

What is Bootstrapping Saas?

Bootstrapping Saas is a podcast where I document my attempts at getting to $10K in MRR with my Saas products as a one-man show: designer, developer, marketer.

I talk about recent updates with my SaaS', conundrums, lessons, successful outcomes, and a few personal things here and there.

Once in a while, I bring in a guest and we talk.

The show is roughly prepared with bullet points, but mostly a free rain of thoughts with whatever is going on that week.

The first 40 episodes have been mostly about Claritask up until I exited: https://bootstrapping-saas.transistor.fm/episodes/claritask-sold

Starting with Episode 41 I cover more attempts, ideas, findings, and other potential products.
