Bootstrapping SaaS

 Val Sopi

Bootstrapping SaaS is a podcast where I document my attempts at getting to $10K in MRR with my SaaS products as a one-man show: designer, developer, marketer.

I talk about recent updates with my SaaS', conundrums, lessons, successful outcomes, and a few personal things here and there.

Once in a while, I bring in a guest and we talk.

The show is roughly prepared with bullet points, but mostly a free rain of thoughts with whatever is going on that week.

The first 40 episodes have been mostly about Claritask up until I exited: https://bootstrapping-saas.transistor.fm/episodes/claritask-sold

Starting with Episode 41 I cover more attempts, ideas, findings, and other potential products.
