How To Start A SAAS Online Business in Hours
Do you know that you need less than 24 hours to start a SAAS online business and earn money online from it while sitting at home? Yes, you can, and I will explain how to start a SAAS business in this article.
Let’s not waste any time and dive into the subject.
What is a SAAS service?
If you didn’t hear of SAAS service or Software As A Service, it is okay
This term is used to talk about any online software or online service that you use online to help you in your tasks, and you pay to use it.
For example, One of the most popular email services is Mailchimp.com. It is a SAAS service that you pay for in exchange for getting access to a lot of valuable email marketing services.
Another popular software that offers various SEO tools is SEMrush. It is called a SAAS service.
To sum this up, A SAAS service is any online software you use and pay for this usage.
Let’s now explain how we make money from a SAAS business.
If you start a SAAS business that offers service for 10$ per month, and you got 100 subscribers who subscribed to your service and will pay you monthly recurring payments.
Then, you will get paid 100*10, which means you’ll get 1000$ per month without doing anything. This is massively great.
You’ll just wait until the end of the month to see the money coming to your bank. I really love SAAS businesses.
Part 2 — How to get a SAAS service?
Now, you may think that it is impossible for you to create your software, and hiring a programmer may be expensive.
No worries, you don’t need technical skills or a developer, you just need to find a place that sells SAAS services or software to get your own. A place like code canyon.
Codecanyon is a popular, trusted marketplace that sells a lot of digital tools including SAAS software.
Most of these costs $40-$50 only. So, you’ll be creating a SAAS business for only 40–50$
What is codecanyon?
Codecanyon.net is a marketplace that sells a variety of tools, software, and digital things.
To buy software for your SAAS business, go to the PHP scripts section and look for SAAS.
You will find a lot of scripts to host on your hosting and start your SAAS services for a cheap price like 30–50$.
You can find discount networks, accounting and billing tools, email marketing systems, and different kinds of SAAS software.
Part 3 — My SAAS Services
I have a lot of SAAS software, so let me talk briefly about each of them:
H-socialproof.com
This is my first SAAS service. I bought it from code canyon and offered it for free. You can subscribe to it and test it without any fees. It is related to boosting your awareness and digital growth.
I am hosting it and offering this service for free for anyone to subscribe and test it.
You might ask yourself, why it is free? Simply, the goal of this is to get subscriptions to promote paid services later.
L-ink.me
I also bought a short link service and hosted it. It is called L-ink.me and offers a free plan and premium ones.
The free plan is important for boosting my subscriber account and increasing my sales.
It costs only around $33. I offer three plans:
- Free starter plan (to attract more customers)
- Silver Plan for $7/month
- Gold Plan for $9/month
Things are clear now. To start a SAAS business:
- Buy it from Codecanyon
- Hire a developer
- Develop it if you have the needed skills as I did with h-supertools.
- Then, host your service on your domain and hosting to make it publicly available. If you are worried about these simple technical issues, visit my YouTube channel to watch this video. It will help you to learn how to host any PHP script, or any service online.
Getting Paid
SAAS services on codecanyon are also accompanied by several payment methods. In case of link shortening, customers can pay using Stripe and PayPal
How to get traffic to your SAAS business?
Honestly, making a project is divided into two parts:
- 30% of the project for the creation.
- 70% of the project for the marketing.
So, you purchased the software, hosted it on your domain and hosting, and must now market it.
