  • Building a Killer Landing Page for Your SaaS Product

    Day 4 of building my SaaS in public - and today we're putting everything
    together to build a landing page.

    All the research from Days 1-3 (problem validation, market validation,
    competitive analysis) feeds directly into this. The result? A complete,
    functional landing page built in under an hour.

    The framework I use: PAIN → DREAM → FIX
    • PAIN: Lead with the problem, use emotional language from research
    • DREAM: Paint the vision of life without the problem
    • FIX: Show how you actually solve it (3 steps max)

    Plus: Social proof, pricing, and FAQ/objection handling.

    What you'll learn:
    • The 6-section landing page structure that converts
    • How to turn research into compelling copy
    • The exact AI prompt I use for landing page content
    • How to handle social proof BEFORE you have customers
    • Using Lovable.dev to build the page in minutes

  • How to Perform Competitor Research for an Actual SaaS Product

    Before you build, you need to know who you're competing against - and more
    importantly, where they're falling short.

    In this episode, I do a deep dive on competitor research for my legal billing
    SaaS. One competitor has raised almost $1 billion. Here's why that's actually
    good news - and how I'll find my positioning.

    What you'll learn:
    • The exact AI prompt for detailed competitor analysis
    • How to build capabilities vs. limitations profiles
    • Finding real market sentiment from forums and reviews
    • Manual website audit techniques (pricing, access model, messaging)
    • Turning research into positioning strategy

    What I found:
    • No self-serve access (they're mostly sales-led)
    • Low pricing transparent (opportunity!)
    • Enterprise focus leaves SMBs underserved

  • How to Perform Market Validation (Real Example)

    You validated the problem exists. But is it widespread enough to build a business?

    In this episode, I go deep on market validation for my legal billing SaaS -
    researching how common the problem is, what the competitive landscape looks
    like, and whether this opportunity is worth pursuing.

    What I found:
    • Problem ranked #3 in the industry (effectively #1 for operational pain)
    • 10-50% of billable revenue lost to this problem
    • 20-55% of law firms affected
    • Competitors have raised nearly $1 billion - that's VALIDATION

    What you'll learn:
    • The exact AI prompt I use to research market size
    • How to rank your problem against other industry pain points
    • How to find emotional quotes for your landing page copy
    • Why competitors raising money is good news for you
    • When to proceed vs. pivot based on research
