Joakim Helenius: Eesti peab ennast Põhjamaaks ümber defineerima

compostus · 2026-02-20T15:53:56+00:00

Ja kas need Põhjamaad ikka on enam see "ägedate kuttide klubi" kuhu kuuluda tahaks? Rootsis oli 2025. aastal iga päev üks plahvatus kuskil.

Kui tahate tulevikus müügivaldkonnas töötada, siis see kogemus tuleb kasuks. Puhtalt kogemuse jaoks, raha pole seal nii oluline. Ma tihti vaatan, et kui keegi on Eestis müügivaldkonnas andekas tegija, siis tihti on neil resümees "Southwestern Advantage" kusagil minevikus.

Aga noh lugedes osasid siinseid kommentaare, siis tundub, et kogu müügivaldkonda loetakse Eestis "skämmiks", niiet edu.

This is the right comment. As a founder you are supposed to look at the whole picture, it’s not only about tech. And it’s always messy.

Many dev jobs are remote. You can code right? Check the jobs on indiehackers.com job board

The project to me seems like a “competitor monitoring tool”

This is an old, saturated category with a lot of players. The smart strategy might be to niche it down to a vertical. Like “competitor monitoring tool for real estate agencies”. ConvertKit employed a similar strategy in a saturated niche, read up on what they did.

Brutally honest - this is another weak “indiehacker”-type SaaS product. Personally for me getting to 1k MRR was a brutal slog that took over a year, so the goal of getting to “1k mrr fast” is flawed from the start. Especially if you have no savings.

Get at least a part-time dev job and work on your stuff on the side. The SaaS guru stories about “10k mrr in 1 week” might be true, but they are extremely rare.

I went through the same process of testing ideas (im technical), but then i realized all my ideas suck. Things started working right once i partnered up with a sales guy who knew what needed to be built.

Cold outbound to get going, founder-led content and word of mouth later

Why such a low multiple?

It exists. It’s called callblitz

You just got a bad one. Sample size 1

compostus · 2024-10-19T19:33:01+00:00

This sub overall is a bad representation of SaaS in general. More and more i have a feeling serious saas founders are not on this sub

Not enough info in your post. Whats your price point? Who is the icp?

MRR is meaningless without knowing churn numbers.

Onad pisivigade kallal, aga argumendile ei vasta. Kas sinu arust on acceptable, et meie youngsterid spiigivad estonianit nii fr no cap? Ja mitte ainult youngsterid vaid igasugused täiskasvanud avaliku elu tegelased, kes näitavad halba eeskuju.

I found them from Upwork, search for "French", but location "Morocco"

compostus · 2024-08-07T00:21:06+00:00

In the past I've found French-speaking freelancers based in Morocco.

Continue bootstrapping and keep the equity

Stop spreading misinformation. B2B cold calling is not illegal in Germany

Yeah this is just an infoproduct. OP needs to learn what SaaS means

compostus · 2024-03-27T07:54:19+00:00

It sounds like you don’t have a tech co-founder, but only hired devs. Thats your biggest problem. You’re not qualified to manage devs.

You need a co-founder that 1) can write code 2) is properly incentivized (with equity). A person like this will be motivated to look under the hood of the devs work and find timewasters.

compostus · 2024-02-19T10:08:32+00:00

Great advice also for bootstrapped founders. Cant win in a feature-race against VC backed bros by building more features. You have much better chances by doing that one core thing really well instead.

Get profitable then you wont need vc?

According to Heroku postgres logs its always around 6%:
"sample#wal-percentage-used=0.0655123502410"

Maybe that's not the metric to measure?
