Build Your SaaS · 2020-04-14 · 1h 2m
This week, Justin called up Josh Pigford , founder of Baremetrics : Baremetrics does analytics for SaaS companies I called him up just to get a sense of how this pandemic (and looming recession) has already started to affect different SaaS companies He's already noticing some trends: "A lot of SaaS companies are seeing the biggest loss they've seen in the past 4 weeks. I've heard from some companies that are seeing a 10-20% decrease in MRR." "Payroll is the biggest challenge over the next year. Payroll is our biggest expense." How are you going to ride this out? "We use Flight Path + Baremetrics to forecast revenue and expenses." Justin's tweet : "here are the companies doing well right now." A preview of a new feature that Baremetrics is building: automated email messaging for SaaS companies.
