My SaaS isn't working...

A lot of "winner stories" these days at Reddit.

I have a 9-to-5 job as a data engineer, so I can't dedicate 100% of my time to this, hence my schedule is different from other entrepreneurs.

Everybody is winning a lot of money with their SaaS and grow from 0 to $10k MRR sin some days... but in my case, i'm going to show you a real case, the timelapse of my enterpreneurship:

- Sep 2025: Launched my SaaS.

  • Started direct messaging at Instagram my target audience.

- Dec 2026: 12 Paid users.

  • Peak of the SaaS. Fist clients continued and got like 5 or 6 new.

- Feb 2026: 6 Paid users.

  • Made the same marketing work as before, a little bit less, but now, no one else get interested on the app. Users started encountering that they are not growing their businesses as expected with my SaaS.

HERE COMES THE CRITICAL POINT

I have to make a decision: Close the page or try one more time.

So I have decided the hard way: Using the info the current and the leaving users gave me, I have started building the 2.0 version:

- April 2026: 6 Paid users.

  • Paid a Sales Funnels expert and improved the landing page.
  • Completely renewed the Web App (improved appearance and added onboarding)
  • Removed features that data told me users don't even use.
  • Added a feature everyone was asking me to add.
  • Started with aggresive SEO Blogs.
  • Changed Social Media strategy: Not more "features" but more "problem -> solution"
  • Going to start with META PAID ADS.

Will let you know in one month how this "last try" is going...
