What If You Could Pre-sell Your SaaS and Have a Customer Waiting List Before Launch?
What if, instead of crossing your fingers and hoping for the best after launch, you could have a line of eager customers waiting for your SaaS to hit the market?
In one of my previous articles, I shared the 5 key benefits of pre-selling your SaaS. Last week we had a webinar "Top 8% SaaS Launch Strategy: How to Pre-Sell and Build Customer Waitlist" where we covered:

Eye-Opening FACTS and Why Pre-Sales Fail
While the SaaS business model may seem tempting, it's essential to grasp the full picture before diving in headfirst.
⚠️ Here's a quick recap of what's at play and why it's no surprise that 92% of SaaS startups are shut down in 3 years despite funding.

It's way easier to complain than to roll up your sleeves and tackle the top 10 reasons your pre-sale might be faltering. 😉
Ready to shake things up and try something new? Let's dive into these reasons and see if any of them are holding your pre-sale back from reaching its full potential! 💪🚀
Confident Launch: 4 Key Milestones
The #1 mistake 92% of SaaS founders make is to build a product that is hard to sell. Many founders believe it’s marketing and sales job to get customers.
Yes, it is.
But if you build a 💩 product, you will have to invest more 💰 in marketing to acquire leads, and your sales process will be more complicated and longer than it should be.
This makes business unprofitable in 9 of 10 cases and such SaaS startups are shut down.
🐎 You can sell even a dead horse but at what price, effort and to how many customers?...
By getting Real-World Feedback in the early stage, you know what to build and what to skip:

Most founders do product tours, not demos. They want to explain too many things, so it takes too long, prospects are not convinced and in the best case, you hear “We need to think about this”.
With the Revenue-Ready Demo, you nail your software pitch every time even if you have no sales skills and hate selling.
It’s a new product, not perfect, no credibility and most prospects tell you:
“Come back when you have a working product to show”
By following the steps of the Double Sprint method, you create a special offer for early adopters and take the Early Adopters Advantage:
With the Double Sprint method, you stay connected with those interested in your product but not yet ready to commit to the early adopters offer.
Imagine having a list of eager customers awaiting your product! This provides:
👉 a cash flow injection upon release,
👉 additional proof of traction for investors,
👉 confidence in your product's viability.
Additionally, you start testing marketing channels while still in the product development phase.
This allows you to identify the most effective marketing strategies for your SaaS while simultaneously building your customer waiting list.
