> 4. Create a SaaS product that solves a consumer or business problem in a given niche...
Like it. Let me share my story.
Six months ago i read articles how Buffer, Drip and ConvertKit started and got an inspiration to do a SaaS project.
I love reading and trying to hack the process using different tools and projects. Some of them worked, some not, but no one gave me back.
The question was: to make a reading habit? And i found an answer: bite-sized reading — 5-10 minutes a day.
Next steps:
— i bought a domain (https://bookcelerator.com/summary) for $12;
— hire a freelancer to craft summaries of books a want to read ($35/summary, $70 total): «Zero to one» and «Hooked»;
— created accounts on Mailchimp and Paddle (payment provider);
— and launched an automation.
It took me 10 days to read summaries by myself, broken down into 5-minute daily emails. Then i realized i really like the process and it helps me with my reading habit. I posted a link and my story to Facebook and Twitter and got first 4 clients from my network. Now Bookcelerator is $200 MRR in two months, has 5 summaries to read (i will post 3 more on every weekend).
The problem is i don't know how to grow to $1k to quit my job and make it the full-time project.
