50 Paying customers and +$5k MRR

This is a great way to start off the week. Today we are ranked as one of the top growing companies on growthranker.com with 50 paying customers and over $5k monthly recurring revenue. We released the new version of the product in August and since we have grown 400%.

We serve SaaS startups who need to provide self-service subscription management to their customers by providing a UI toolkit for Stripe. Live examples of our product can be found here: https://dashboard.servicebot.io/examples

Current challenges:
We are still looking for product-market-fit. SaaS is a huge market and finding sub-segment is challenging. We know we are great at saving time and resources for SaaS companies. Building a Stripe integration can take time, but depending on the pricing complexity of the SaaS startup, our value can be different.

Would love your feedback :)

    Hi Shar, I just checked out Servicebot and it looks good, I have already bookmarked it for future usage / recommendation.

    Regarding your challenge on product-market-fit, I have the same question while browsing through the site: who are the happy customers of Servicebot? Perhaps it will be helpful (for yourself) to look through the current customer list and (helpful for prospect and everyone else) put a few customer logos or even case studies in the website?

      Thanks, @Choong700!

      The majority are SaaS startups, but there is no common sub-segment that we can pinpoint, which makes the process of narrowing down a lot harder. UI billing toolkit is a new market and it's forcing us to put a lot of content out to raise awareness.

      Great idea about case studies, we are currently in the process of writing a few.

      Can you tell me about your product? What's your billing need?

        Ah, I'm building a Shopify app now to help shopper improve their shop UX. Was tingling with a few standalone Saas idea but decided it'll be better to start off with something simpler as a non-tech :)

      Thank you! It was a build-up of our marketing effort in the summer along with releasing the new product. We have gained a few larger customers that we've been working with for a few months now.

      Glad you enjoyed the blogs. Which one did you find most helpful?

        For example "Stripe and Node.js: 4 Best Practices and Examples". Really nice and detailed article :)
