Planning the Perfect SaaS Launch: Userlist.io

Planning the Perfect SaaS Launch: Userlist.io

Jane and Benedikt are long-time members of the SaaS bootstrapping community, and most recently the founders of UserList – which they launched to a crazy amount of grass-roots hype.

One of the most interesting things I saw from their launch (and I mention this in the interview) is that for about a week UserList was all I saw in my social media feeds. I wanted to sit down with Jane and Benedikt and talk about how that came about, how much was planned, and what they did to stay on track with a looming deadline, limited budget, and a brand new following.

In this interview with Jane and Benedikt, you’ll learn:

  • How to leverage the audience that you have (without abusing your personal relationships)
  • How they chose where to promote their launch
  • Why they used product hunt
  • Their decision making behind choosing to do card up front
  • Why they used ‘schedule a demo’ as their secondary CTA and how it worked out for them
  • Things they weren’t expecting to come out of the launch of the product and how people responded
  • The strategy behind what they chose as their freebie
  • Why they don’t like selling lifetime licenses
  • The Ultimate Guide to SaaS User Onboarding
