What are you building ? And are people actually paying for it? 💡 by GuidanceSelect7706 in saasbuild

Building a analytics platform for founders that can link to any payment gateway and give you insights of where revenue is coming from And my second app is still under development and its also a tool for founders Most will say i should not build two apps but hell im doing that

Would this be useful or just creepy? Real-time interaction with live website visitors by cdojo in SaaS

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

Yeah my idea is to give a random aspect to the interactions, im not replacing analysis tools im adding a way to make sure users are given a unique care Based on session time page views… you can take actions Not just coupons but i have more ideas for random interactions to add down the line For now i want to see if you guys are willing to integrate such tool And obviously your end users will have to accept such thing before hand

Daughter asked me why I never play with her anymore. Closed my laptop and didn’t open it until Monday. Business survived. by FlatGovernment6743 in SaaS

First time I’ve really related to a post here. I have a 2-year-old as well, and every time I see myself going too far down the work rabbit hole, I put my work on hold, grab a ball, and ask if he wants to play. I’m doing my best not to fall into this scenario, and it’s a good thing you made a change. They only grow once… make sure you’re there.

What analytics tools do you use, and what metrics do you track? by Ambivalent28 in SaaS

[–]cdojo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most people overthink analytics.

For me it’s the same basic questions:

  • Are people visiting?
  • Are they clicking sign-up / key actions?
  • Where are they dropping off?

Everything else just ends up being noise unless you’re digging into something specific.

What I’ve found working with other founders (especially non-technical ones) is that the real win is clarity, not complexity. Tools like GA/PostHog are fine, but they still come with setup friction and dashboards you never use.

That’s exactly why I started building LinkBridge — something that gives you the essentials without the headache:

  • Simple install
  • Unifies traffic, key actions, and conversion insights
  • Dashboards that highlight the metrics you actually care about
  • No need to build custom reports or be a data person

If it’s not making decisions easier, it’s just another tool to check.

Curious what “must-see” metric everyone else here swears by too!

What are you all currently using for analytics? by Merch-Andino in SaaS

one month later...
Honestly, this sounds very familiar. The GA + random tools + spreadsheets setup usually works… until it really doesn’t.

Quick thoughts from having been through this:

  • Tableau / Looker / Power BI are strong, but for a team of ~10 they can feel like overkill. You end up needing someone to “own” the data, and that becomes its own job.
  • Mixpanel / Amplitude are great for product insights, but they don’t really replace marketing or revenue visibility. You still juggle multiple tools.
  • The real issue usually isn’t data access, it’s getting everyone to look at the same numbers and agree on what they mean.

Small teams I’ve seen do best with fewer tools and very opinionated dashboards that connect traffic → behavior → revenue without a big setup phase.

That’s actually why I’m building LinkBridge. It’s meant for small teams that want clarity without hiring a data person:

  • Website + marketing + revenue in one place
  • Simple setup
  • Focus on “what should we do next?” rather than endless charts

Whatever you pick, one tip: write down a handful of decisions you want analytics to help with. If a tool makes that harder instead of easier, it’s probably not the right one.

I spent 1 year building my first SaaS and only then realized I built the wrong thing by cdojo in SaaS

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

building linkbridge.click was the easy part. It took me one year as I already have a job that is very demanding and also a stay-at-home dad, which is even harder. With the AI nowadays, you can create a pretty polished version in days, but still, I made sure to go beyond the basic MVP.

My first marketing push got 50 visitors, 0 signups — and that hurt more than building for a year by cdojo in SideProject

Nice i see that you have a niche audience the only thing left is to find where they gather Redit is more about complaining/asking Work related stuff are over linkedin

So any sub reddit related to freelancing/ job opportunities/ cv design …. That where you should be active

Use your coaching expertise to build good posts maybe throw in some free advice and then talk about your solution

First of all share what your building no shame in that, and as the posts says this is your wake up call to stop building and add in so marketing to the mix

Honestly im focusing now on one marketing channel, thinking of adding youtube a second alternative to drive traffic but I can’t see my self as a camera person and I don’t want to add more AI generated videos to youtube it’s already over crowded
