How to get your first SAAS customer

This book includes stories, interviews, and insights from people who have built their own SAAS products. These are real people with real businesses. Many of them talk about their failures, strategies, and the process they followed to getting their first customers.

You'll learn what to avoid, what you should be doing and thinking about, and, most importantly, the repeatable process that successful founders use to get their first SAAS customer. 

Who is this book for?

There is an abundance of guides on how to build, grow, and sell a software startup. Yet, no one talks about the first and most important step: How to get your first customer.

This guide was written to help you do one thing, get a paying customer for your SAAS startup. It's the guide that I wish existed when I was struggling to find customers.

So many people talk about building for scale, having solid foundations, developing support, engineering, and marketing systems yet no one talks about that very important and defining step in building your startup; Your first customer will change the course of everything. A paying customer is the strongest form of validation.

If you have just an idea, an MVP, or are looking to get your first SAAS customer than look no further. This guide is a simple process to land your first customer and beyond.
