Happy to jump on a call to give some advice - without seeing you, the product and your approach it’s practically impossible. I was in your position and decided to make my first employee a salesperson - I learned a bunch from them and now ha

On the flip side, I don’t think it’s pricey, $25 per user, per month for something that will make developers more efficient is well worth it. Sent to my Tech Lead to see if he wants to sign up.

I’m a Perl developer and have built a $2m ARR business that runs on Perl! If anyone reading this is looking for a new challenge and loves Perl, do give me a shout. Happy Birthday my old friend!

Pop me a connection request on LinkedIn, it would be good to chat. I’m UK based too & am heavily involved in this space.

Do you offer an API? I’m about to build this myself for my company and would rather not have to.

by darrenwestall 5y ago
It’s something I’d bundle in my own product if you had an API, something where I can create/remove trackers and then get alerted to changes via webhook. If you ever build that let me know, as you say it’s something we could build but I

I completely agree with this. I’d use this (and so would my CFO) if I didn’t need to use any dev resource

I like the idea, but a heads up - the typewriter on the homepage meant the copy kept jumping around when reading on my phone. It made it incredibly frustrating, I’d recommend pausing that on mobile or when it’s out of view.

“at least for most prospects” I guess the answer is to negotiate hard to get what you want. It’s absolutely a POC but with shared risk and a real concentration on onboarding/implementation - I’ve done this for lots of the software we u

Don’t ask for a shorter term, instead ask for a break clause to be added on the 3rd month that can be exercised for any reason. They still have a 12 month contract, but you know you can walk away with 30 days notice in month 3 if implementa

I’d use this to easily share emails with team members and discuss them over Slack - but I won’t do it without security. I’d want to introduce the tool across the company but I don’t trust people to remember that it shouldn’t have sensitive

On the security side, can you not store a password per link and return it as a GET Param on the link? It would mean people can’t simply guess the link? Not perfect I know.

In order to exclude your current customers from your retargeting adverts, you can include the tracking inside your app and then exclude from your audience on FB, Google, Quora etc anyone that has visited logged in URLs. That way you’re only

I’m a very happy Intercom customer and it’s embedded into everything we do from sales to support. I’ve only got one feature I wish they had and that’s onboarding checklists for new users. We use their product tours, in app messages and emai

We put our prices up by 50% to new customers this month, we’ve see no difference in the amount of customers we’ve earned - just a higher revenue per customer. Charge more.

I’d recommend Thryve (I’m a customer) - they’re a recruitment agency that specialises in Germany. I know that’s not the answer you wanted, but it’s worth it for the right talent and allowing yourself to concentrate on other things.

Happy to chat anytime, email is in my profile. We’re going to hit £1m ARR this year and I’d love someone to chat with too. It can be a weirdly lonely place at times. Im UK based so TZ should work well, plus I’m a frequent visitor to NL (Pre

A very happy customer here. The software is great, but the support is even better. Very proud to support a solo founder. If you’re running a SaaS and want to get more testimonials from your customers this has been a game changer for us - it

The developer in me doesn’t disagree, but it does lead to a significant amount of inbound leads that would have been lost otherwise (We tested it). Our market is marketers though, not technical people - if it were, I suspect the results wou
