Hey Reader


I hope you're doing well.


Here's a quick round up of what's been going on at SaaS Club:

🎧 Podcast

Growing a SaaS From Zero to First $1M ARR in 7.5 Months

Jeremy King is the founder and CEO of Attest, a research platform that helps B2C companies do market research faster.

He founded Attest in 2015 and hit the first $1M ARR in 7.5 months.

Today, the business generates 8-figures in ARR, employs around 170 people and has raised $104M in VC funding.

In 2015, he realized most companies would guess what consumers wanted because getting market research data was hard.

Jeremy believed he could solve that problem.

His wife gave him 6 months to get the business going.

So he knew he had to work fast to validate the idea, build a product, and get paying customers. The clock was ticking.

But what Jeremy did next was very surprising...

I hope you enjoy it.

📗 Book of the Week

This week's book recommendation is from Jeremy:

Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Explain Everything About the World by Tim Marshall

Why did Jeremy recommend this?

"It's about data and applying facts to explain inexplicable things. It causes you to reframe and challenge long held assumptions and understand things in a way you didn't really get before."
