My full story:




After college I spent a couple years building Gametakes - an app to record a podcast from your iPhone. Gametakes grew virally on reddit and taught me a lot about how to get customers at scale and build retentive products. But it was hell building this company.

It was my 8th attempt at launching a consumer product. We ended up selling it, but I was burnt out. This was a very dark time, and I consider 2017 to be rock-bottom.

I wanted to take a break from building my own stuff, so I joined an awesome YC startup - OneSignal. This exposed me to B2B, and I haven't turned back since.

When GPT 3 was announced, I left OneSignal and built my first saas app. It was AI SDR that would write cold emails for you. It grew insanely fast, crossing 10k MRR in weeks, but I learned this is a terrible business. Do not build an AISDR! I sunsetted the product after 6 months, feel free to DM me to learn more.

The silver lining from building that product was coming up with the idea for pandapose, and AI image generator. That got acquired.

After that I built Paage. It lets you put all your sales material into one trackable link.

Paage grew quickly, hitting 200k+ ARR in its first year. Today, Paage is used by thousands of AEs.

In October of 2024, I started getting scared that a simpler, more stripped down version of Paage with AI baked in would kill the business. It was a risky move, but I decided to bet the farm on building that product in parallel to running Paage. Why let someone else profit off my demise :)

This product is called Send.co. I think it'll be very big, but we shall see. I share updates regularly of things I'm learning building it and what I'm shipping. 

You should follow along. If you read all this lemme know, would love to connect.

Day in the life of a B2B SaaS Founder, part 3

I'm launching something new that automates what every GTM team does manually.

Been building this for months. Use cases are insane..

It solves two problems every sales team has:

1) How do I make every rep sell like my best one?
2) How do I answer buyers instantly without slowing deals down?

Send now solves this. More details to come soon...

I'm giving early access to a small group who want to share feedback.

If you wanna try it, comment below and I’ll DM you.
