LocalRanker

I just deployed Stripe to prod.
The development phase was quite smooth thanks to their good docs!
Our MMR so far is 220€ in 3 months of activity. We will see how Stripe can help us grow faster.

Pretty excited to see the results!

Btw: I will share on Twitter our open metrics each month!

Currently thinking about adding Stripe to the platform.

The current process to get a user and a paying user is quite complicated and can be frustrating.

Current process:

1/ Request a demo
2/ Do the demo
3/ Transfer the amount to our bank
4/ Get access to the platform

=> Takes between 2 to 3 days.

Thinking about changing the flow to the following:

1/ Watch a demo video of the platform (optional)
2/ Signup to the platform
3/ Fill his credit card information
4/ Get access

We do not want to offer free trials because our platform is based on web scraping and it can quickly cost a lot.

We are glad to close our first annual paying customer. We got this lead through a referral from my co-founder.

Getting closer to reaching the PMF, even though the COVID-19 crisis doesn't help since our target is local businesses.

MRR reaching 89$/month which is still pretty low but happy to have people paying for my first actual project.

Pretty happy to share this news! 20 days after deploying our MVP, we closed our first paying customer with a 6-month commitment which means this will cover our server fees for at least 6 months.

Next steps => Develop more features and get 3 more paying users before the end of April.

Just deployed to prod the MVP for LocalRanker. Local Businesses can audit their GMB listing in seconds and optimize it to rank better in maps results!

Next steps => Get the first paying user for it and develop more features :)

Hope we will soon cover our server fees!
