Developer Filip Panoski spent seven years building five products with zero traction, then quit his $7,000/month dev job to go all-in on his sixth attempt: Bazzly, a solo SaaS that promotes companies on Reddit on autopilot, now at $15,000/month.
Key points from the episode:
- He argues distribution is overrated past a certain stage; finding a recurring pain point matters more
- His cold DM template landed both his first users and his business partner
- Bazzly had a 40% churn rate that took 6 months of near-zero certainty to fix
- Walkthrough of how the product works and starting from $100
