Like the title says. Im done with SaaS. Done chasing customers, done building no body wanted. I learned that SaaS building is not about building the coolest stuff. It is more about sales, narketing and distribution. Yeah, the old saying but people dont realize how exhausting and how hard it really is. You need to be fulltime in that game if you want to be successful. Weather its creating content with or without AI, Dming people, outbound email, creating Ugcs, its fucking hard man. And you need to keep it going and do A/B testing until you hit the right metrics that converts.
So after about a year of doing these with my SaaSs, Im done. I treat these projects as a nice portfolio and something to "show off" as a founder.
And heres the crazy part, once I focus on building,opportunities are overflowing.
Heres where I am now.
-CTO/Co-Founder of 3 Startups
1. AI Agency for Government and Enterprise
2. B2B2C Automative App
3. AI Agency for High value clinics
Contracting
-Building AI agents for a ME base AI agency
-Building a Health Tech App
Im building all these using Claude Code Max and Codex working in parallel, while all my partners do the sellng, marketing, and all customer facing activities.
The first startup AI agency has by far the greatest potential with almost no competition and connections. The next 2 are on MVP and customer acquisition and onboarding phase - the SOM is massive as well.
My contracting work pays the bills.
If youre not a natural seller or business person, do not try to be. Its not just a skill you can easily acquire. Its a mindset. Its like your a developer and you love coding. Same with sakes and marketing - you like selling and you love it to death.
So my advice - stop being solo if youre not in the game. Start finding cofounders and partnerships - with your own developed saas or open source projects.
