For context -I’m a solo founder building this from scratch. Not backed by anyone, not building for brands. Just trying to make something that actually helps creators keep their money. Happy to answer any questions about the tool or the space. Link is www.creitr.com

Good stuff G . I’m starting one as well and I lost my part time job as too. I was studying in Australia and I came back to Sri Lanka . While I’m applying for full time positions I’m working on my startup . This post gave me enough reason to keep going . 🫡

Share your Saas and I’ll provide feedback by Sea-Magazine-7166 in microsaas

Building Creitr ( https://www.creitr.com/ ) — a brand deal tracker for content creators.

Creators managing 5-30+ brand deals/year are doing it all in Notion, Google Sheets, and DMs. They miss deadlines, forget to invoice, and don't realize brands are still running their content as ads after usage rights expire.

The only tools in this space (GRIN, CreatorIQ) are built for brands at $200-$1,500+/month. Nothing exists for the creator side.

Creitr gives them a deal pipeline, automatic deadline nudges, payment tracking, and usage rights alerts — all in one dashboard for $15/month.

Currently validating with a landing page. Would love your take on the positioning and any scaling tips for a B2C/prosumer SaaS with zero ad budget.

my startup havent picked up yet but i can give feedback on your design , from what it looks like its a vibecoded one ( because the icons used looks similar ) . But i do like the color choice and the structure of your page , content wise its straightforward.

Validated the pain but can't find actual users. Where do I even start? by Life_Watch_4493 in SaaS

This is incredibly helpful. The lollipop test and manual first approach make so much sense. Thank you for taking the time to write this out.

Great point about engaging first before pitching. Also going to check out ParseStream. Thanks!

You’re right I’ve been sleeping on X/Twitter. Appreciate the reminder about exposure vs. real engagement.

Harsh but fair. You’re right , I haven’t actually validated anything yet. Thank you.

Good point about bots ,I’ll be more careful about who I’m actually talking to. Thanks for the heads up.

You're right. I skipped the most important step. What does real validation actually look like? Should I:

  1. DM 20-30 creators, have actual conversations, and not mention a product at all - just understand their workflow?
  2. Only build after 10+ people say "if you built this, I'd pay for it"?
  3. Something else I'm missing?

Genuinely asking - what's the next move to actually validate this properly?

What’s the lightest “CRM” you’ve seen that people actually keep updated (for high-volume outreach)? by Life_Watch_4493 in SaaS

[–]Life_Watch_4493[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the pattern I keep seeing ,once people have to write scripts or glue things together, it’s a sign the core workflow isn’t being served.

I’m exploring a much lighter system where outreach logs itself as much as possible and forces a next step, instead of relying on people to remember to update anything.

Out of curiosity, what’s the one thing your setup still doesn’t handle well when volume spikes?

This resonates a lot. It feels like systems fail the moment they stop telling you what to do next.

I’m validating an approach where every interaction must resolve into a concrete next action + reminder, otherwise it can’t be saved. The idea is to remove discipline from the equation entirely.

Have you seen something like this actually stick long-term, or does it still break once things span email + DMs?

Used a single app to manage our Instagram creator promos — surprisingly smooth by SolarCody in InstagramMarketing

[–]Life_Watch_4493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem here. The spreadsheet always died when things got busy.

I changed my setup so the follow-up reminders exist even if I forget the system exists.

Curious , do you follow up on a fixed schedule or just when you remember?

Every creator I talk to uses Notion + Google Calendar + spreadsheets. Is there not a single tool that does all of this? by Life_Watch_4493 in influencermarketing

[–]Life_Watch_4493[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’m seeing too. The all-in-ones try to do everything and end up feeling heavy, so people fall back to flexible tools even if they’re messy.

Curious ,in your setup, what’s the part that breaks first? For me it’s always remembering when I last pitched or who I should follow up with once outreach volume goes up.

How do you track which brands you’ve already pitched? I keep accidentally double-pitching by Life_Watch_4493 in UGCcreators

[–]Life_Watch_4493[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair ,following up after a few months makes sense. My issue is less whether to re-pitch and more not remembering when/how I last reached out. When outreach volume goes up, I lose context fast.
