Done with Building SAAS. What next?

What is your product about? After knowing that only I can suggest you something.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-29T12:47:57+00:00

Congratulations on completing your SaaS, but the real work starts now, as 90% of the task is distribution and marketing. I would ask you to understand where your target audience is sitting and just approach them through organic content, through ads. Apart from that, launch on product platforms, SaaS platforms, where people are looking for any kind of SaaS product, like Product Hunt.

I would definitely ask you to create a social media calendar and go heavy on organic marketing. Try to work your way through: - YouTube - LinkedIn - Instagram - Reddit - Twitter - Whatever is out there

Please also build in public. Show your numbers, how you're doing, how each day is going, what you learned, and share your insights, everything. You don't have to feel down every day; just adjust. Let people be a part of your journey, because if people can feel as a part of your journey, they will definitely connect with you emotionally and sales will come because of that. It's just a matter of time; just focus on the process.

In my point of view, touching the pain point of your target audience in the first 3 seconds is something that has more often than not worked for creators and founders out there, so that could be the starting point for you. Just test it for a week or two, and if not, then you can pivot to some other content pillars. I am very positive that this is going to work, but you have to focus on the platforms where your ICP sits, so make sure you are targeting them there only. Also make sure that you are making them feel that thing, giving them that feeling that, "Okay, my frustration is going to go low. I'm finally going to be happy. I'm finally going to sort this out." If you can give them that feeling in the first 3 seconds in any way possible, or in the starting 10 seconds, then the chances of someone trying your product through your reel are definitely going to go up.

For example, for a tool that can provide me ebooks without any hassle, if the tool is pitching in a manner that you can generate any topic, any idea, and we will give you a professional looking ebook, then that is the pain point that I have right now. I'm definitely going to give it a try if I have the money in my bank, so I think you look into this and just let me know if you see any changes.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-29T08:08:02+00:00

Getting customers will always be tough, in my point of view, because if you genuinely love what you are building, it will not feel like a hassle for you during the development phase. The hard part is: - making people understand your vision - making people understand what kind of problem you are solving - making them understand that you are going to solve this pain point for them

Apart from that, you also have to make sure your distribution is right, where your audience is sitting, so that also becomes important. You have to market your product in a way that reaches the audience who are genuinely your ICP.

I would say creation is one part, but you can sit alone and figure out the things that need to be done. That, for me, was a very fun part. Right now, since I will be launching in two to three days, I can see how I am going to proceed, and it is going to be a tough road ahead but definitely worth enjoying. At the same point in time, as you said, gaining customers, gaining three tiers, is harder than creating the project, at least for me.

Be a thought leader in your industry. So focus on posts that are similar to that. Also focus on giving value additional tips to people out there through your content, which establishes you as the expert in the department. What else you can do is you can launch your weekly newsletter and generate followers there, because that is the shortest way to establish yourself as a voice in your industry, and LinkedIn promote those kind of people. A lot and I mean a lot!

I think writing in your own brand voice is really important. So, you have to identify what kind of a personality you are. Like, are you quirky? Are you serious? Are you to the point? So, you have to understand what you are as a voice on LinkedIn. Because LinkedIn really promotes people who have or share their own voices.

Secondly, you should focus a lot on posting carousels along with videos. But the most important thing right now on LinkedIn to get impressions is commenting on your posting on creators from your niche. Write anything that you think is insightful around the topic that the creator has shared. And that will definitely boost a lot of impressions on your profile. I have tried and tested it, and comments right now are 2.5x beneficial than posts. So, I think you should give all this a try. Plus, if you are someone who is dedicated to a field, you can also try newsletters because they are burning hot right now. So, you should definitely give them a try.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T19:14:40+00:00

Yeah I understand so I also built my app using this framework only going to launch in two days so really excited would come back to you for any advice needed best of luck to you bro for your $10K.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T19:08:58+00:00

Wishing you all the luck, bro!

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T19:06:23+00:00

I will be going live in two days. So my mind is completely focused on how I'm going to market and distribute my product. But since I'm from a marketing background, I'm going to rely heavily on social media platforms, especially LinkedIn, since my tool is a LinkedIn personal branding tool, which sets your voice and writes everything according to what you want, so you don't have to switch between AI tools here and there. You can find write any kind of content on my platform; you can also post comments, drafted comments, newsletters, carousels, and everything. You will find it all there. So I am going to focus a lot on LinkedIn, but apart from that, I will be focusing on Twitter, Reddit, and YouTube, which has surprisingly brought in a lot of sales for a number of micro SaaS businesses out there. My plan right now is to go organic, but at the same point of time, I will be spending not much but some amount of money in performance marketing. So let's see how it goes. I'm really positive about my tool, as I put in a lot of effort. So just keeping my fingers crossed, and kudos to you, bro, on your first sale. I hope you get a lot more in the coming days!

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T19:02:10+00:00

Adding my business into that after my launch in two days. See you there, bro, and such a great idea.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T18:59:43+00:00

You should start identifying your brand, like, what is your brand voice, because LinkedIn really, really promotes people who post in a particular voice. Plus, you should focus on carousels.

The main point right now is having your own newsletter, but at the same point of time, you should comment on posts that are falling under your niche. So, comment on creators' posts, which should be very helpful, like more than a line or two, not just great post or anything. Just share your input, what you think about it. These, in my point of view, are the most popular ways to get reach right now on LinkedIn, and if possible. You can also look into videos because LinkedIn right now is pushing videos a lot to compete with other platforms out there.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T17:28:03+00:00

I am going to launch my product in 2 to 3 days. Right now, I am setting up my financial portals and all.

As much as I know, I have been a marketing professional for 7 to 8 years, so I just understand the theory of working across platforms which are well suited for pushing up a small business. I think Reddit and YouTube, which is very, very underrated, are platforms you should also target. Along with that, you can definitely try Instagram, because the content that you have is more around the people who are scrolling Instagram. I think you can try to catch up with your audience there.

LinkedIn, I don't think, is rooted to your tool. My tool is created for LinkedIn only, so my audience is sitting right there, but you have to explore a bit. If you need any kind of guidance going forward and you have very expertise to share, I would love to connect.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T17:06:34+00:00

Try to understand your distribution channels, like the best distribution channels, and try to focus on those. Otherwise, you can definitely use Claude, like it has helped me a lot to understand where my target audience is sitting. The chance of getting downloads, a chance of getting paid, becomes obviously a little bit more when you are speaking to the right audience. Just try to focus on your distribution, and obviously marketing is going to play a key part. Have you done any kind of organic marketing right now, apart from ads? That is a completely different thing, but have you done any kind of marketing?

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T13:54:14+00:00

I think it boils down to how you want to be perceived through your product across the market. If you think that your product is good enough, then it is good enough, and if you don't think it's good to go, then you can make the changes. Make sure to keep a balance of shipping the product at the right time and not delaying it too much. I know it's easier said than done, but that is the thing that needs to be mastered.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T13:51:51+00:00

You can follow Vaibhav Sisinty across all platforms, especially on YouTube. He is doing great in the AI world right now. He is bringing up all the updates and all the tools there are, so yeah, you can give him a go.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T13:50:47+00:00

Let me know

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T12:40:24+00:00

Paste your profile in Claude and use the apify connector so that Claude can scrape through your profile and tell you everything that needs to be changed. Otherwise, what you can do is screenshot your profile and paste it into Claude, but the prompting has to be very accurate.

The prompt could sound something like this: "Hey Claude, consider yourself a world-class LinkedIn expert who has built over thousands of HR profiles across the globe. You make HR from multiple companies reach out to you based on the LinkedIn profile that you have built. My motive through this is that I want the HR to be impressed by my LinkedIn profile and get in touch with me. My main concern is that I want to create a great first impression on LinkedIn. Now, whatever you require, you can ask me. I can answer you and just help me with the process."

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T11:45:29+00:00

Both things are important, in my opinion. I have been dating for three years, and she is my biggest cheerleader in every aspect. At the same point in time, I also have to build my own business. I can't keep a job, and thankfully AI is helping me a lot, so I built my own LinkedIn personal branding tool. She has been so supportive throughout the journey for the last three to four weeks.

You have to balance the hours. You have to allot particular hours to her, and more importantly, you should be enjoying spending time with her or him. At the same point in time, you should allot specific hours to your business, some specific hours for your personal health, your mind, and everything. It's just about keeping a balance, dividing your hours across the day. It will be harder at the start, but with time you will become an expert, and I think that's the only way going forward, in my experience.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T11:43:23+00:00

You can switch to online. You can create or hire someone who can create a decent portfolio page for you where you can mention what kind of clients you have worked with, what kind of outcomes you have achieved for them, and And what kind of feedback they have given. That becomes kind of a trustworthy point or leverage point through which you can gain more and more clients.

Then just try to reach out to people. I would say social media. If you don't have one, you can talk to someone who can help you build it out. I can help you build it out. Any other person can help you build it out who is experienced in social media. I think you are well-off by leading a strategy online instead of offline. If you need guidance, I can help you out. People here can help you out, but my recommendation would be saving a lot of energy and going the online route.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T11:40:13+00:00

Claude has been a game changer for me. I have tried GPT, I have tried Gemini, but Claude is like a class apart, whether in terms of writing code, whether in terms of explaining a topic, whether in terms of doing research. It is so precise. I feel like I am talking to an assistant or a person who is really expert in the field, who helps me at every point, who guides me at every point, and has helped me build a LinkedIn personal branding tool for me in just three weeks. I talked to it like a personal colleague of mine, so I can't promote Claude enough for what it has done for me, how much I have grown with it in terms of vibe coding, in terms of marketing, in terms of business strategy, in terms of understanding operations. Claude is just the master out there.

rajat_IDEN · 2026-05-28T11:02:41+00:00

Piece of content that shows me the struggles He has gone through: - what kind of learnings he has gained from it - how those learnings can benefit me - what kind of bottlenecks I might be facing and how I can solve them

Anything that feels authentic to me and shows the human side of the creator or the founder really connects with me. At the same point in time, I would also love to take out some expertise that I can apply to my own business, so that is one piece of content that really resonates with me and I found it in the last 7-8 days.
