I grew 4 SaaS tools to $100k+ / month here is the playbook: 1. build an MVP in a week, not 3 months 2. ship it to 5-10 people manually 3. get into their DMs, emails, literally everywhere 4. talk to them every single day 5. fix what breaks, understand what they actually use / want 6. build features for their real problems, not yours 7. ship the update, ask for feedback again 8. repeat until they can't live without it 9. once you see stickiness, go public 10. launch, post, do the content 11. work your SEO, start ads, kick off affiliate 12. scale what works, kill what doesn't most founders skip steps 3-9 talk to people or fail
