#774 WP-Tonic This Week in WordPress & SaaS: With Special Guest Rob Walling of TinySeed & MicroConf
We Discuss The Secrets of a Successful Startup in 2023 https://saasplaybook.com/ We discuss Rob's new book, "The SaaS Playbook" What is the critical message that Rob wants people to get from the book? Rob has been helping non-venture-backed startup founders since 2005, and now I run the first startup accelerator for SaaS bootstrappers, TinySeed. Rob has invested in more than 125 startups, but I don’t believe raising money is the only way to start a SaaS company. For context, Rob has built six businesses to six- or seven-figures in revenue without taking outside funding. #1 - So, Rob, what triggered the new book? #2 - What are a couple of new key areas that the new book covers? #3 - What would be the main message you want readers to get from the book? #4 - Some of the spin around AI is dying down, so have you had enough time to consider how this new technology will affect startups in the next 12 to 18 months? #5 - What have been some of the biggest online influences or personal mentors connected to your business career development? #6 - If you return to a time machine at the beginning of your career, what essential advice would you give yourself? https://saasplaybook.com/ ----------------------------------- Sponsors of The Show ----------------------------------- Zoho.com: - https://www.zoho.com/partners/ Sensei LMS - https://bit.ly/3VskGBT WPLaunchify - hhttps://bit.ly/3VskGBT LfiterLMS - https://bit.ly/3VskGBT ----------------------------------- Sponsors of The Show ----------------------------------- FOLLOW & CONNECT WITH US Website https://www.wp-tonic.com/ YouTube Channel: @wptonic The Membership Machine Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3W9r4gb Twitter: @wptonic_com LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/42ngKWr --------------------------------------------------Hosts of The Show Jonathan Denwood & Kurt von Ahnen https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathandenwood/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/kurtvonahnen/ @MananaNoMas ----------------------------------- Sponsors of The Show -----------------------------------
