$ 2.000 MRR is Noah's goal for the end of this summer with Potion. A software transforming Notion to "WordPress". The Story of Potion 👇

Talking to SaaS builders is one of our passions at Indiebrands. This week we talked to Noah about building Potion. With it, you can transform Notion into "WordPress". Here's the summary of our talk. ✍

Hey Noah, can you give us a little background on yourself?

I found that I love creating projects when I started a YouTube channel in high school. I just loved making content for other people. I then got into creating projects in college as I went for computer science. I have probably built 8 or so products to date and had one bigger product that was my first “real” startup that I worked on for 2 years. It was coffeepass.io. After selling CoffeePass I wanted to build more of an indie hacker business.

What is Potion?

Potion is a website builder built on top of Notion. Notion is a really cool tool because it kind of has a lot of the layout of a CMS already. Potion adds a custom domain, fast page speeds and allows you to customize the style of your site.

Who is the audience of Potion & How many people use potion?

Potion is built for other entrepreneurs and makers that want to start a business online. I currently have 60 paying customers and am doing $547 MRR. I’d like to reach $2k MRR by the end of the summer.

Notion grew from 0 to 1 million users in just 3,5 years. Do you have a clear strategy to plug this success?

Mainly being a part of the community. Helping those in the community and sharing what’s possible with Potion. If I can be a part of the Notion wave, I believe Potion will do well. Also collaborating with other Notion creators is a good way I can grow.

Can one compare WordPress to Notion?

Notion is much simpler to use than WordPress. You just update your site and it's live. Changs to WordPress are much harder to make and it's more complex. At the same time, there is more customization with WordPress. WordPress is probably better for bigger teams because there is a publishing process that isn’t currently in Potion. I do plan to add some of these features to make Potion better for teams editing websites.
