That was powerful! Thank you for this video! I am just starting my journey in the SaaS field and I'm glad to have found this video before making a potentially wrong decision that I was considering. I just subscribed!
The 3 people that disliked this video have already booked their venue in LA for their launch party, and keep paying fees to reschedule, because they really need to add this one last feature before the big event.
Soft-launching one of my SaaS solutions this month, your GTM content has been very helpful TK 👏👍👌 One-more feature trap haha = perfection is the enemy of execution = over analysis paralysis
@@TKKader TK What happens if people think public builds are a security risk ? It’s obviously not true but some users might freak out. There’s got to be a solution everything that we use today apple windows android is based on open source public software
Great video! Amazing info and the way you communicate it in a graphic way! What is the difference between building public and building community?( The last 3 bulletpoints on the right side of the page. Thanx @TKKader 😊
Powerful content. The multi threaded launch is similar to principles in Design Thinking (continuous iteration and improvement as you go, informed by data from quality users) - the multi-launch element in multi-threaded is one up on design thinking though. I like how u are able to capture & clearly demonstrate everything on a piece of paper, keep it up.
Great content. I'm developing a startup and about to begin the phase with MVP testers, as you mentioned. It will start free. Is there any methodology for managing the tester phase? When and how should I transition to a paid model? Is it advisable to do this with the MVP?
Competition is inevitable when you have a successful product. So I wouldn't worry about it. Focus on clearly communicating what you do to your target market and get big fast.
So much value in this video, thank you TK Kader. I have a question though, what´s your approach about pricing in the early stages? Let´s say you are building a freemium fitness app under a subscription model, when do you think is a good moment to start charging?
Amazing information once again. thank you for the vid. I have one question... If you start discussing your idea before its made, don't you get worried that someone will pick it up and do it by themselves!!!
Does this work for B2B product as well?? because most of the times, enterprise level B2B products have higher stakes and closing deals without any actual demo would be next to impossible
Wow, amazing video! For the first time you ever put a product out to market, how soon should you be marketing it or building a list before the first date that it drops?
I'm currently in the research stage of my soon to be start up but I already working on Marketing strategies Think about it this way. You could build the best SaaS app ever with tons of potential but if you can't effectively put it infront of the right people it'll flop
Thank you so much for this valuable content - as a first-time founder building a Saas product I got completely stuck in Linear model.... Multi-threaded approach is one I will go for as it indeed seems more healthy and impactful and I strongly believe in community first! The question I have is about the promotion of my first MINI launch... do the pitch of my landing page covers what is currently available in the first release or do I pitch the ambition (the ideated end product) ? Thank you so much!
Pitching the ideal product while not being developed yet, could be seen as over-selling.. on the other hand it could allow me to validate important hypothesis... the next question is whether I promote the features on the first mini-launch or I pitch the problems I am solving ?
Hi, very informative video, but i have some questions What is the criteria of Minimum Viable product. As i am building a SAAS product that i know i have 3 main competitors, and I am trying to make a better product than them, by making a hybrid SAAS application in that space (combining the best parts of all those 3). Plus i am researching (blogs, reviews) what their customers actually need and adding those features in my product before launch. Am i in the MVP cycle or it is actually the criteria of MVP. Moreover, i am not making the perfect tool before launch, it will certainly have room for many features and improvements that i plan to update with the feedback and growth of my customers. Am i doing it right? Apologies for a long message.
Truly amazing presentation. I have fallen in the linear model because I am working all alone by myself. How can we avoid the "Linear" glitch knowing that I have engineering background? Only recently I started learning about marketing but it is taking me tooooo long.
what if in a multi thread approach, anyone who is inspired by the idea start working on the idea and we create a new competition before even launching our product? how to avoid this?
This is cool but I feel this will hard to do for a b2b saas product because of the approval processes that has to do with an organization. Getting the c level executive to try a product that is not ready will be very difficult
I think the idea is that you don't want them to look at it as not ready, but as a stage where they can provide feedback that will help you tailor the product to best fit them. You are solving their problem, and they are lucky enough to be in a position to influence how much better it can solve their problem.

Hey TK I'm located in Richardson TX, do you have experience with AWS amplify and react native? im currently looking for a co founder/mentor/advisor to help me lead a company and help it grow...would you like to connect some time in person?
Thanks for detailed opinion but its theoretical again, real case study would be best idea to understandit step by step. And one more thing, what about first impression of customers, if we go with multi threading model?
There isn’t one “strategy” there are many things you can do. A lot of those different plays I’ve covered in this channel. If you’re looking for a step by step play on getting your first 100 customers, I recommend my SaaS Launch Challenge: getunstoppable.com/launch.
@@TKKader Thanks TK . But tk the thing is we gonna launch a tool and we need 100 beta users so for that im asking available channels to get early adopters or there is any dedicated site to get early adopters
Your idea is good but not best, with your model your competitors will take an competitive edge and eventually bang your model on a wall, in your multi threaded approach one shoud go with internally confidential companies before final launch of SaaS product. No advantageous features or strategies will be revealed in that case before you become confident in multiple beta launches for proper alpha launching
My team have fall in the “Linear Launch”, but i did not known after watching this video. Your video changed my mind. Thanks you so much
Glad I could help!

Boom!! Glad this was timely!
Thank you so much for this. It’s so useful and very different from what I thought as an engineer by trade.
Glad it was helpful!
This was very insightful, Tawheed!
I was caught up in the linear model (what is an MVP cycle). Thank you for clarifying.

@@jinitshah8357 Awesome! Hope to see you inside the GTM Program!
Hey TK, do we need to charge on the early days?
There's no right or wrong answer here. But if you are able to charge then it is a greater signal that you have something valuable.
Great content. I'm developing a startup and about to begin the phase with MVP testers, as you mentioned. It will start free.
Is there any methodology for managing the tester phase?
When and how should I transition to a paid model?
Is it advisable to do this with the MVP?
yes, it's really brilliant!
Awesome!
What if someone is building a product in existing domain, does it make sense to go public with limited features? Or even build the product in public?
Competition is inevitable when you have a successful product. So I wouldn't worry about it. Focus on clearly communicating what you do to your target market and get big fast.
Good one
🙏🏼
Hi @TKKader, can I do PH Launch with just a landing page to get waitlist users?
It’s definitely a start to get a signal but it doesn’t replace real customer conversations with a commitment to buy or trial.
@@TKKader Thanks!
So much value in this video, thank you TK Kader.
I have a question though, what´s your approach about pricing in the early stages?
Let´s say you are building a freemium fitness app under a subscription model, when do you think is a good moment to start charging?
YES
Boom!
Amazing information once again. thank you for the vid. I have one question... If you start discussing your idea before its made, don't you get worried that someone will pick it up and do it by themselves!!!
That’s a possibility in life. But that should stop you from executing and getting out there.

My pleasure!
just amazing

Does this work for B2B product as well?? because most of the times, enterprise level B2B products have higher stakes and closing deals without any actual demo would be next to impossible
For larger sales, and even for services, it won’t close the deal but it’ll get your foot in the door and into initial calls.

Apologies for a long message.
I recommend following my 10-Point Checklist to approach this stage of your process: tkkader.com/saas-checklist.
yes
🙌🏼
It was like a agile vs waterfall model
Great analogy 💯
this guy is pog
Truth be told... I had to google "pog" 😂. Thank you for the kind words :)
How do you price during this mini-launch stage? Do you price low and then raise as product evolves or price at ideal level from day 1?
I recommend offering a 30-day pilot and then $X/month after that -- that way it is a no-brainer.
Truly amazing presentation. I have fallen in the linear model because I am working all alone by myself. How can we avoid the "Linear" glitch knowing that I have engineering background? Only recently I started learning about marketing but it is taking me tooooo long.

How do you go from mvp to final product?
Tk but what happens if people see the code and think it’s a security risk ? In public builds
Best to not get stuck on theoretical problems.
what if in a multi thread approach, anyone who is inspired by the idea start working on the idea and we create a new competition before even launching our product? how to avoid this?
By building a valuable product and better marketing strategy, competitions will always be there. You can't control an entrant in the market.
This is cool but I feel this will hard to do for a b2b saas product because of the approval processes that has to do with an organization. Getting the c level executive to try a product that is not ready will be very difficult
I think the idea is that you don't want them to look at it as not ready, but as a stage where they can provide feedback that will help you tailor the product to best fit them. You are solving their problem, and they are lucky enough to be in a position to influence how much better it can solve their problem.
Nailed it.

Until you have customers assume your idea is worthless and there is nothing to protect.
