We just published the latest episode of The SaaS Podcast:

Lessons on Perseverance from a SaaS Startup That Almost Failed
This is a story of 3 guys in Greece who set out to build an e-learning SaaS product.

It took them two years to ship the product. And then they realized that while people seemed excited about their product, no one seemed ready to buy.

It took them another year to find their first few customers - that’s three years after they started.

And during those three years, there were times when they thought about quitting. But they’d invested so much time and money that it was hard for them to walk away.

They kept telling themselves - let’s just get in front of people, let’s listen to the feedback and keep improving the product. And maybe one day this will all pay off.


💬 Quote of the Week
Here is the quote of the week from Panos:

"I'm getting better everyday."
-- Philip Rivers


📕 Book of the Week

This weeks' recommendation is "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams.

Here's a brief blurb about it:

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy became a massive cult success when it was first published and continues to sell all over the world. It introduced such memorable characters as Arthur Dent, Marvin the Paranoid Android, Zaphod Beeblebrox, and of course, the Vogons, and remains one of the funniest, most irreverent and entertaining novels ever.."
