Thank you for this piece. It’s so comforting now that I’m right in the middle of SaaS drudgery. With a few paying business clients it certainly has value. Should I stick to the niche or broaden it? Should I stick to my local market or try acquire users beyond these borders (or continent)?

Hmm, this is interesting. Might it have had something to do with the 2008 Financial Crisis, then a couple of years for the authors to internalise and suggest new ways forward?
If that’s the case should we expect post-US-liberation day books on doing tariff-resilient business in 2028?

On the one hand, it’s a desire-to-be-perfect problem but mostly I think it’s a fear-to-launch procrastination tactic 🤷🏿♂️

I don’t spend too much time on social platforms but it’s a nice hangout. There’s always something new I pick or see or learn or laugh about.
