I own two bootstrapped SaaS companies worth more than $4,000,000

Here is my exact playbook for hiring developers 100% for FREE

No bull shit... I just figured this out... Here we go... In 2017 - I was in Sales at Vonage and had a customer I was trying to close for $720,000

The customer said "If you can do X, I will sign up"

Vonage said "No"

So I went on Upwork

Hired a developer in India

Built X

Closed the deal and got a FAT check

$0 to $30,000 MRR in 60 days 🤯

That's what I just watched @oliver__b1 do with a Chrome Extension

Below is how he did it
AND why it is hella disrespectful If you don't know @oliver__b1 he sells sex chocolate on the internet

Yup!

You read that right.

He owns a company called Tabs that sells chocolate with the idea being it increases your sex dive.

I love this (not the product)!

It reminds me of...

Here is a funny story on how I am using Wix to build a $1m dollar SaaS biz in the next 6 months 😜

(Am I full of shit? Probably! Click "Show this thread" to find out) [Story Time]
I run super profitable SaaS company called Loup that sells a monthly service to over 200 voip providers in all 50 states.

I am a lucky SOB... BUT... I am also greedy!

Loup has over 60% of the total approachable market (TAM) on the platform...

Soo...

We are fucked... There I said it!

I just saw the most impressive display of AI I have ever seen in my life!

Check this out... My buddy @umar482 runs software development shop in Pakistan
(He is the guy I hired for @median)

Like every business owner, he wants more customers

Historically, some of his best customers are Shopify owners that he built custom apps for

This is where it gets crazy

3 days ago I saw this video of @ezrafirestone on Insta

2 days ago I had ChatGPT write this blog
(hellomedian.com/article/5-live…)

24 hours and we added $1,200 ARR on $27 dollars of Ad spend 🤯 Wrote this tweet while I was building out my Twitter Ads strategy

https://twitter.com/AKASpencerScott/status/1638193450721120256

Here is a cool update on this tweet.
Ad Spend = $26.36
MRR Added = $100 ($1,200 ARR)

https://twitter.com/AKASpencerScott/status/1638193450721120256

That's right, I have spent a total of $26.36 cents on Twitter, Facebook, and Insta Ads

(Yes, I know that is a laughably small amount)

Resulting in 2... YES 2 new customers!!

Adding $100 MRR ($1,200 ARR)

Here is how I setup my Twitter ads if you are interested First I asked ChatGPT to write me a blog post titled

"5 LiveChat apps that will save you time"

[Listen People] Stop the madness!

Google does NOT give a shit about AI generated content!

Ask the hundreds of thousands of dead mom blogs who where sold a lie that if they just post about their passion they can make a living.

Someone will find it right? WRONG! If you have ever done SEO in your life, you know that the content is 10% of the battle

Good content alone will NOT get you to the top of Google

The other 90% of the SEO battle is MARKETING!

We all thirst for that precious gold that everyone knows about but no one talks about..

[Free Business Idea] But first... A short story...

I just went to my barber. When I walked in I noticed they had a NEW PS5 sitting on the counter.

Me: "Why is that there?"

Barber: "It's a raffle we are doing. $50 buys you a ticket to win it. We wanna bring in more traffic." Me: "That's stupid. Why not raffle off a year of free hair cuts?"
(we're friends)

Me: "People are coming here for hair cuts, if they wanted a PS5 they would go to best buy"

Me: "Sell the people what they want"

Barber: "That's genius" 🤣

Me: (shocked they didn't think of that)

In the last 30 days I spent $4,500 on paid advertising for my small SaaS company @median

Here are the results and what I learned... Paid advertising can have a MASSIVE impact on your business both 📈 and 📉

The 📈 is HUGE due to MRR
The 📉 is HORRIABLE if your systems aren't setup for paid

Let's jump in...

I'M A FUCKIN BEAST!
(that's how it feels when you break through with cold email)

I wanna get with @Patticus and @GuillaumeMbh to do a MASTERCLASS on cold emailing.

I cold emailed the CEO of a DREAM customer I want.
5 emails later and we are IN!

Here is EXACTLY how I did it... I started with BuiltWith[.]com and pulled a free list of LiveChat customers.

BW gives you the first 100 websites free.

I saw a Logo I wanted so I went fishing.

The first step was identifying if they actually use LiveChat.

So popped on the site & started a chat...

TIP: Cold email is still the best way to grow a businesses with no money.

Here are the tools I use if you are interested.... Builtwith[.]com

This tool looks at the code of a website and identifies the tools they are using...

Then it indexes them so you can find all the "Salesforce" customers.

It's expensive BUT it's probably my favorite tool on the internet.

PS: They have a dope extension

Wanna make $1,000 dollars?

Here is how to steal $1,000 from me (and other businesses) and I will THANK YOU for it.

Here we go... This month I will spend over $4,000 dollars on paid advertising for @median

Of that spend, $2,000 dollars is going to Google PPC.

For those of you who DON'T know, that means I am renting the penthouse at the top of Google's monopoly sky scrapper.

and rents due each month...

Watch me build a software company from $0 to $10,000 in 3 months in this thread.
