Indie Founder #369 - Selling Podsqueeze? What Happened in 2025 Changes Everything!
I speak about why we’re not selling Podsqueeze in 2026, our MRR numbers, tackling churn, and the challenges of B2B vs. B2C. I explain our SEO strategy and why we invested $1,500 in a domain. I share new learnings about automating with N8N and the impact of AI on SaaS. Distribution—not just building products—is key. My prediction for 2026: focus on what works, cut what doesn’t, double down on SEO and automation, and leverage all our assets for growth.
