Your SaaS is live.
Let’s find your customers.
Practical post-launch tactics for micro-SaaS growth
Believe it or not, the first 100 customers are tougher than the next 1,000. Most early-stage SaaS founders stall here by falling into familiar traps:
- Running paid ads too early or chasing channels that don’t convert
- Over-engineering too soon and building features no one asked for
- Obsessing over branding before you’ve made a sale
This session is about traction, validation, and feedback after the launch dust has settled. Our panel of experts will discuss:
- How both personal and low-key outreach (like cold emails or Reddit posts) still work
- Where AI can help without making you sound like a bot
- How building in public turns early users into advocates
- Creative growth loops like integrations, newsletters, and community cross-promotion
If you’re stuck at 50 users, about to launch, or just need a push through the early fog, this session is your shortcut to 100 (and then 1000).
Join us on Wednesday, September 17, at 12 AM ET for our live panel discussion and Q&A session.

FAQ
Do I need to have customers already?
Nope. This webinar is ideal for founders who are still pre-launch or stuck trying to land those first 50–100 users.
Is the panel really live?
Yes! The panel will run live, with real Q&A at the end. You’ll get a chance to ask the panelists your questions directly. In case you can’t make it, just register — and we’ll send the recording to you after the event.
How much does it cost?
It’s completely free. No strings attached.
Why is Freemius hosting this?
We help software makers turn software products into real, sustainable businesses. That means not just monetizing, but also making smarter strategic decisions from day one. This webinar is part of that mission.
Will you cover cold outreach and AI tools?
Yes. We’ll explore what kinds of outreach actually work at this stage, how to use AI to personalize and scale your efforts, and how to stay authentic while using automation as a force multiplier.
Can building in public really help with growth?
Absolutely. Our panelists will share how transparency and community engagement helped them build trust and visibility (even with tiny teams and limited marketing experience).
Is this just another list of growth hacks?
No. This is about real tactics that work for indie SaaS makers, like leveraging communities, integrations, small newsletters, and low-cost growth loops.
