Launching your company is an exhilarating feeling, but seeing it grow and expand to a point where it becomes capable of helping other people in establishing their own mark in a competitive industry can feel quite unbelievable.
Alex Theuma of SaaStock experienced just that in the process of building his company. He lost $60,000 in a conference he hosted and he persisted in hosting another one which helped turn things around for himself and his company, making it gain a ton of investors and earning $4 million in revenue.
In this week's episode of The Big Break Software Podcast, Geordie Wardman talks to Alex about the early days of his company, trends and competition in the SaaS industry, the importance of building a strong sense of community in the industry, and which niche he thinks should be the main focus of those who are wondering what SaaS product will take off next. Stay tuned.
