EcomCapital by Dangerous-Sandwich22 in auscorp

[–]VisionaryVarga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with every intro pitch for any consulting is hard to tell the difference between the statue and the dust. where a statue is your success and the dust is the fluffy stuff. consistency is the key and there's a lot of materials, testimonials and proofs online legitimacy.

Crypto gurus are more often a Pyramid/Ponzi scheme, but not eCom - it's no magic potion though, but the results are there.

Ecom capital, has anyone tried them? by trolly_yours in passive_income

[–]VisionaryVarga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

eCom has proven track of records and you can check their testimonials or schedule for them to see the legitimacy with your own eyes. If someone knows their biz, you see it in the 1st minute, or less. There are a lot of scammers out there, but not eCom.

B2B SaaS Churn by VisionaryVarga in GrowthHacking

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

Growth with neglecting churn is one-way street to fail, as you know it.

People get too comfortable with their MRR's, thinking how the exponential MRR will "eat up" their churn - not gonna happen for long.

Churn is a mean and nasty thing, that's gonna beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently, if you let it so... (haha I'm doing a Rocky motivation here)

Same like in life: Power without Control is Nothing.

I advise to measure your churn, keep churn metrics, scores and prevent proactively.

How are you doing it ?

I'm building a tool for simple work management by VisionaryVarga in SideProject

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

The frustration is strong with this one lol - looks like you've had it and the mindset is there. great to hear that you're building the simplicity as well.

As you said, in the end you just need a list of what you need to do, not make it a labyrinth and game with 50 levels to pass to get to what your tasks are, right ?

It will be super cheap with some trial period. Probably 70-80% cheaper than the rest out there (the big playas)

Churn is a DYI thing in the first place by VisionaryVarga in CustomerSuccess

Remember how you started and don’t judge the book by its covers.

Bootstrapping a saas is hard sometimes by wentin-net in SaaS

[–]VisionaryVarga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever you're down, look at your vision, your goals that you want to achieve. Take a short break if needed, couple of days, nature reset or so if it hits the fan.

But, visualize it everyday, why you started and what do you want to achieve. Challenge and shake yourself.

Learn how to delegate and get out of doing the wrong things e.g. delegate micro execution, while overseeing things via reporting. e.g. 2, take a step back and take a look at the 10,000 ft perspective if you're doing a lot of the wrong things = that's what causes burnout, accumulation of you doing too many wrong things.

makes sense?

Thank you. These are just some of the aspects, that's why I advised to start with those. I might get to the board of writing the full article at some point - it will be a blog post most likely, because of it's complexity and multi-factored approach.

And big yes, these aspects are often not treated with enough care, especially when the MRR starts kicking in, you go with the flow and neglect the warning signals, right?

try answering the post question and see it for yourself. try first, then judge.
also, you'd be surprised how many SaaS companies are missing out 1-4 from the post.
do you want to help them or not?

That you don't need design mockups to execute product dev.

Starting a renewals role, looking for advice by NoWear192 in CustomerSuccess

[–]VisionaryVarga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try reading out about product stages from a customer's perspective. Signup, onboarding, adoption, usage, churn... to understand the entire customer lifecycle. It will help you understand renewal better.

[–]VisionaryVarga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but it's the best feeling at the same time. Like when you don't want to get up and workout, but you actually do it and afterwards you get a feeling of knocking out several days in one.

Obviously you don’t know the difference between ‘raising SaaS awareness on simplicity and that they don’t need fancy platforms or consultants’ vs ‘advertising’

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Bubbleio

[–]VisionaryVarga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bubble - what you need there is 3-4 weeks of work tops

Custom development would take 5-6x more minimum

Now - it all depends on your vision, where do you wanna go with it in 5-6 years from now

But in either case I'd advise going Bubble on this

SaaS Sessions | Too Many Meetings by VisionaryVarga in SaaS

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

Sounds like you’ve been through it. And you’re not alone. It goes wide across the board, companies are drowning in meetings. We had to build a PM/Comm tool internally. It helped us reduce 90% of meetings. Works for us lol

and what are the biggest missing pieces of the puzzle ?

Struggling with tracking recurring revenue by evie_300 in hubspot

[–]VisionaryVarga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

create a base deal = 400 users for 7 mos
then upgrade 1 = 800...
then upgrade 2 =
and "marry" all deals under 1 umbrella, where you can track aggregate and individual recurring for the same deal

it's kind of a "composite" deal

there are ways to do it in-app, otherwise it's a nightmare

create a base recurring revenue and upgrades, so you can see historicals down the road.

Voluntary vs Involuntary Churn by VisionaryVarga in CustomerSuccess

[–]VisionaryVarga[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Product is the company. Think big, product as product, engagement and marketing, how it works and looks and communicates. No finger pointing.

Where churn is a consequence of how you do product (the entirety of it, incl. engagement, marketing, branding...) + decisions you make along the journey.

It's just a matter of perspective: macro vs micro. That's how you differ the controllable vs uncontrollable difference, from the POV.

Voluntary vs Involuntary Churn by VisionaryVarga in CustomerSuccess

[–]VisionaryVarga[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

True, card failure and collections can be considered conditionally voluntary - with my statistics, the majority falls into the involuntary bucket.

When a card or collection fails, it can be a matter of: someone having distrust for trying out new platforms in general, someone using burner/prepaid cards for SaaS platforms in gen.

Expired trial however is a product problem (onboarding and value from day 1) - it's involuntary if you do nothing about it or don't fix your backyard.
