[SaaS Club] Getting to $100M ARR by falling in love with a problem

Hey, this is Omer...

Here's a quick round-up of what's been going on:
🎧 Podcast
We just published the latest episode of The SaaS Podcast:

314: Getting to $100M ARR by Falling in Love with a Problem

In 2001, Alfonso and his partners started a UX research consultancy in Spain. But doing research in a physical lab was slow, manual, and expensive.

After several years of doing UX research that way, they decided that they'd build a tool to help them automate the process and become more efficient.

And the tool, once it was built, helped them run the consultancy better.

Only when a client asked if they could use the tool to conduct their own user research did Alfonso and his partners realize that there was an opportunity for them to become a product business.

In this interview, we share:

How they transitioned from a consultancy to a SaaS company

Some of the struggles they faced in finding customers'

How they have gone from a humble start as a consultancy in Spain to a SaaS business doing almost $100M in ARRand has raised $136M.


I hope you enjoy it.
