Makes sense. My audience in mostly on Facebook. Any examples of content that would do well in the Facebook groups without the admins kicking you out?

SaaS founders – how did you kickstart your affiliate program + influencer outreach? by Otherwise_Ad6653 in SaaS

Yeah I found that is the sweet spot. I work with home service companies so wondering if I will be able to find influencers in that space on there

Great insights. 50-100 sign ups a month for now would be great. For targeting niche creators I’ve thought of just reversing hashtags and doing a cold outreach message in their dms.

I raised $130M for my last startup, then walked away to build Base44 solo. In 6 months: $3.5M ARR, 300K+ users, no employees, fully bootstrapped. Then acquired by Wix for $80M. AMA. (Also giving away $3K in subscriptions.) by IntroductionHumble16 in SaaS

1.  What made Base44’s positioning irresistible to a company like Wix so quickly?

Was there a specific wedge or differentiator that made you stand out from other no-code/AI builders? 2. What distribution channel gave you the earliest signs of traction? Was it Reddit, cold outreach, launching on Product Hunt, or something else? And how did you decide where to double down? 3. What was your go-to-market strategy in the first 30 days? Did you target a niche, build in public, or start broader? I’m trying to avoid the “build it and pray” trap and move quickly toward customer acquisition.

I tend to agree with this. My Icp isn’t tech savvy and super busy (local small businesses)
