Last week's #buildinpublic report for Senja

We added $500 net MRR

- 48 upgrades
- 37 downgrades
- Work to reduce churn continues
-- Our focus is new product features, onboarding changes and + education to get people activated

Building a bootstrapped SaaS in public, without the BS

I’m thinking of starting a SaaS mastermind 

→ Other SaaS founders
→ Over $40,000 MRR
→ Bootstrapped or seed only 
→ High intent / dialed in

Any #buildinpublic people interested?

My biggest marketing mistake?

Not sending enough emails

I've spent YEARS wondering what nurture emails to send to leads, how I should personalize them for different buyers, and how to sequence them most effectively

I've planned SOP-style emails, customer-centred emails, behavioural emails, "claim your account" emails

I've created 10+ nurture sequences for different ICPs

But this was all over thinking

Nurture emails have one goal: remind people you exist

Everything else is a nice to have

So I've decided to stop thinking about what to write, and start hitting send

#buildinpublic

I used to run a music website that compared pop stars with potatoes

Now I spend most my day writing quite-nice sales and marketing assets assisted by AI

I want to capture some of the silliness and weirdness of my past

Who out there is sharing audacious, ridiculous marketing in the B2B space?

Is there any humour left? #buildinpublic

We're doing $1million ARR with 3 people

But now I am looking for the fourth

I want the marketer that can work alongside me and help take Senja from $1,000,000 -> $2,000,000 ARR

I'm personally working on product and lifecycle marketing

So I want the person that will do customer-centred marketing

Collaborating with partners, educating sign ups, reaching out to dream customers

Where do you find this type of person?

My instinct is that I need to head hunt them and this person won't come to me

Am I wrong #buildinpublic?

PS. the end goal is 5 people, best product, calm but productive company, $4,000,0000 ARR
