My SaaS made $1400 in last 7 days!
I run a SaaS named Youform, which is an affordable Typeform alternative, and I made $1400 revenue in the last 7 days alone.
Sorry for the clickbait-y title, though. I am tired of all those "I made $X in 4 days of launch after learning to code for 2 weeks" posts. Reddit is filled with them these days.
Even though the title is real, the story isn't just that it is made in only 7 days.
I have been on this full-time for almost a year now. Prior to that, I was developing the platform for about 10 months (while freelancing) before I saw even a single dollar come in. Not only that, I created more than 5 products before Youform, and none saw any major success.
So, when I see all those "quick" money-making posts, I know something is wrong. I also thought about how disappointed I would feel if I were starting today and only had $100 MRR after months of hard work, while someone else was making $1000 in just the first day of launch. Hence I thought of writing this.
So if you are running a SaaS and think that you are not good enough to run it because someone else is making money quickly with their OpenAI wrapper, remember that either they are:
- Selling a course
- Spending money on ads to get that revenue
- or lying
Remember it takes time, and everyone is working in their own "timezone." Keep grinding and have patience for the sun to rise in your "timezone." :)
