Starting a new project inside a profitable $1.5m ARR SaaS

Hi there,

My name is Dmitrii Chistov, and I'd like to share how I launched a new product from idea to the first sale. Right now, I am the CEO and founder of a profitable SaaS company ($1.5m ARR). Each week, it takes 2-3 workdays.

In this project, I'm not going to raise any VC funds and will use the profits and resources of my own company. A key goal of this project is to create a highly profitable micro SaaS or app that generates $10-50k/month. No partners, no investors, no huge costs.

Currently, we have a landing page, 100+ people on the waiting list, and 5 people on our team: 3 developers, 1 product/project manager, and 1 product designer.

A few words about the project. I came up with the idea more than seven years ago. At the time, I tried to manage my professional contacts, stay in touch with people, and build my network. It was challenging, and I dropped the idea after several attempts.

Earlier this year, I came across some solutions to my problem, but none of them worked for me. As an IT entrepreneur, I decided to create a product that would meet all my personal needs. It would also be great if it led to some new business and profits for me.

You can learn more about the project at Ordemio.com - personal CRM for professionals. The app will be available for the test in 3-4 weeks.

In my next post, I'll share the project budget and how I launched it in a limited time. Feel free to subscribe to the blog and ask me anything in the comments. Thank you!
