#51: How I scaled my business to £2M ARR, and how you can too


Listen Later

In this episode, Ryan breaks down exactly how RocketSaaS grew from £0 to £2 million in annual recurring revenue. He shares the key marketing (and business) moves made at each stage of growth — from hustling for free work in the early days to ramping up paid demand gen and hiring A-players at scale. Whether you’re a founder or marketer in the trenches, this is a practical guide to growing a B2B service or SaaS business from scratch to serious scale.

Takeaways:

  • £0–£100k: Work for free, build a portfolio, hustle hard with cold outreach
  • £100k–£250k: Niche down, create case studies, run outbound LinkedIn campaigns
  • £250k–£500k: Delegate and build a lean team so you can focus on growth
  • £500k–£1M: Go all-in on founder-led LinkedIn content and effective lead magnets
  • £1M–£2M: Double down on demand gen (newsletter, podcast, webinars, ads) and hiring A-Players
