Why Micro SaaS Trend is Exploding
the future of online business
there have been some GIANT shifts in the software space in recent years
the old way of doing software was:
raise venture capital money
hire a ton of engineers
take 6-12 months to build an MVP
focus solely on revenue, not profit
hope and pray for a giant exit some day to make a return for VC
all while having your investors breathing down your neck and having to report to them…
this is not freedom, this is a low % play at getting rich, this is NOT for 99% + of people
there’s a new and better way that people are doing this
called building “micro SaaS” companies or being a “solopreneur”
no team, no overhead, the future of businesses all the way up to $10M ARR will be teams less than 10
founder, co founder (one technical, one marketing/ceo) some sales people, and then customer success (which really you can mainly use AI for)
and there’s tons of people being a one man show, they build their app on no code (or use code if they know it) they build in public, and they test new ideas until one sticks
and many of these people get their one man software company to $5,000 to $10,000 MRR
and not only does this allow you to pay yourself a nice lil bit per month - you still are also building an asset you can sell for $250,000 to $500,000 and then rinse and repeat
is that the sexy giant exit that venture capital firms want? no
but you did it with basically no risk, no investors breathing down your neck, your cash flow positive and profitable (80-90% margin) and can sell it whenever you want
this path provides you more freedom, and a higher $ chance of seeing good money
most people’s lives would be changed by a lump sum payment of $250k
is it retirement money? no
but your living expenses are covered for a few years now for you to go for something bigger
these 1 or 2 person companies are the future
you can use AI for SO much now…
to help you get ideas..
to write copy…
to design landing pages…
to do market research…
even right now with me and Zappx
it’s just me, my CTO, and 1 sales guy
using AI for customer support
this team will take us to $10,000 MRR easily
we’re 1/5th of the way there right now
and I’ve documented every step for you to follow
