全ストーリー
After following the #BuildInPublic journey of many indie makers, I decided this was the approach I was going to take.
Slow and Steady
I didn't want to acquire massive amounts of users immediately - I wanted to grow slowly and steadily to ensure I could sustain the product.
Explosive Growth
At one point, Magai was sitting at $200K MRR and growing at a rate of 70-90% per month. The platform has attracted over 50,000 users.
- Time to $20K MRR: 163 days
- Peak MRR: $200K
- Users: 50,000+
重要なポイント
1
Slow and steady growth can be more sustainable than viral explosions
2
Building in public attracts supporters and creates accountability
3
Leverage existing audiences across multiple platforms
4
Tiered pricing allows you to capture different customer segments
