Yes, my saas failed .and i felt like a loser now.
i'm gon tell you exactly what i did. dont be me.

-ads. basically a money burning blackhole. client side pixels lies!!! you have to use server side. at the end we found a open sourced server side tracking repo but it was too late.😭

-affiliates. we got scammed by some affiliates cuz the clawback. it's not easy ditribution and DONT use paid saas like rewardful or tolt etc

-flat Stripe sub instead of usage-based. heavy users cost more than they paid, light users churned. should've metered from day one.

-paying our agencies and freelancers.

if i would do it again i would bootstrap, fork an free opensource repo like velobase harness. never use a paid frameworks at the beginning, use AI more instead of hiring too many devs, dont do ads that early.

please wish me luck and i hope you dont be like me. 😭
