#1 Find a problem
Problems are everywhere.
Everyone has one:
>> Agency Owners
>> Coaches
>> Freelancers
All you have to do is Investigate, ask Qs and deep dive into a niche.
Then find a painful problem that people wouldn't mind paying money to get rid of.
#2 Find an existing solution
This one is the easiest part of the process.
Here's what to do instead:
Go to Google and search for "[Problem] + software".
Compare the available solutions.
Pick the best one.
#3 Reverse engineer how it works
Break down the solution in it's core components.
Most SaaS are structured this way:
>> Database
>> Back-end
>> API
>> Front-end
This is easier if you already know programming.
But if you don't, you can pay someone to break it down for you.
#4 Make it better
Think of ways to make it better.
See what the current solution is lacking and fix it:
>> Is it too slow? Make it faster
>> Is it too ambiguous? Make it simpler
>> Does it lack features? Add them
The thing is to add VALUE to your solution.
#5 Build it
I've said this before and I'll say it again:
You DON'T have to code your SaaS yourself.
Instead, pay someone to build it for you:
>> Go to lemon(dot)io
>> Tell them about your project
>> Let them match you with a dev
>> Give project to dev
>> Wait until it's done
#6 Traffic
All that's left is driving traffic to your SaaS.
Start with free traffic:
>> Blogs
>> Social media
>> Podcasts
>> Newsletter
>> Your own course
Then use paid traffic:
>> Ads
>> SEO
>> Influencers
From $0 to $2.5k MRR -> free.
$2.5k and above MRR -> paid.
That's it!
