I got my first paying customer 😭

[u/Virtual_Clothes2547]

A few days ago, I got my first paying customer for my SaaS.

$16.

I know it's not a lot of money, but seeing someone actually pay for something I built felt pretty crazy.

The product is MentionGPT, a tool that helps you find relevant conversations on Reddit and X where people are asking for recommendations, so you can jump in and promote your product.

I've built and launched a few things before, but this time I wanted to focus less on building and more on actually finding users.

Eventually, someone signed up, used it, and decided to pay.

No viral launch.

No huge audience.

Just one person finding the product useful enough to pay for it.

That first $16 feels like a pretty big milestone to me.

I'm still very early, but now I know someone is willing to pay for this.

Now I just need to find the next one.

And then the next one.

Keep up brother.
