11 months of building a SaaS
Now turning over $8K every month 🥳
Not quite a rocket ship (compared to some other startups that are totally killing it)
But hey, fully bootstrapped
No VCs breathing down my neck
A small, 2-person remote team
I love everything about it 😍

If you’re stuck at $0 MRR, I recommend you do the following:
- add dark mode
- build more features
- add a free plan
- remove live chat
- add logout button
What else?

When I was 23 I tried blogging and quit.
When I was 25 I tried newsletter and quit.
When I was 26 I tried e-commerce and quit.
When I was 27 I tried SaaS(7x) and failed.
When I was 28 I went all out with Supergrow.
I didn’t quit.
Now we make $10k a month.
Just don’t quit.

- Double down on personal brand

Two years ago, I bought this M1 Mac on an EMI of $180/mo.
With this Mac, I started Supergrow.
Now, Supergrow makes $75k a year.
Buying it felt expensive, but it was totally worth it.
Hands down, my best move yet!

When I took the leap and left my full-time job to go all-in on Supergrow.
I promised my wife I’d return to a job if I didn’t make $1k in 12 months.
15 months later, we’ve hit $120K ARR.
That's the power of consistent execution.

If you’re struggling with acquiring your first customers, it’s likely due to one of the following problems:
1. You aren’t talking to enough people (sheer volume)
2. The people you’re talking to don’t have the problem you solve (wrong audience)

I tried working from a co-working space for 2 days
It wasn't great. The place had no energy
Most people are in full-time jobs, and they didn't seem happy
It was also really noisy, with lots of loud phone calls

1% of people will think my story is silly:
• I didn't finish school
• I lost my dad in 2016
• I worked in SaaS for 7 years
• I quit my job in March 2023
• Investing my saved money
• I build in public
Who cares!
I'm focused on making Supergrow a success.

Things that worked for me as a first-time founder:
1. Distribution > idea.
2. Start charging from day one.
3. Don’t create a new category.
4. Be patient; success takes time.
5. Experiment with different marketing approaches.
6. Take care of your health for business success.

Double down on decisions quickly.
As an early-stage founder, you need to make many decisions quickly with a relatively limited data set.
You don’t have six months or $50,000 to invest in every experiment in the hope that it will be successful.

Don't celebrate that you have a new business idea.
Don't celebrate that you built it.
Celebrate that you got people excited to pay for it.

There are two kinds of product ideas:
1. Nice-to-have (Vitamins): These are the products that your target audience might like, but they don't really need them.
2. Must-have (Painkillers): Your audience can't live without these products. They're essential.

Getting many messages about finding a unique startup idea.
Remember:
- You don't need a unique idea.
- You don't have to start a new category.
- You don't need to disrupt anything.
Just solve a problem you understand and serve customers better than others.

Definitely, there's always a chance for a new startup to succeed.
You don't have to be the first; you can still do really well.
Look at Tim, for example. He started Pally in a busy market and still made it grow to $80,000 every month.
That's impressive!
