I built the following things:

- A SaaS for productized services (https://www.manyrequests.com)

- I wrote a book (in 24 hours) on productized services: (http://www.productizebook.co)

- I also grew a FB group (Productized Startups) to 1950+ members on the topic of productized services.

My goal for 2020 for my SaaS is to hit 150 customers or $10k/month in monthly recurring revenue.

To achieve that goal I plan to:

- Improve the UI of the SaaS in Q1 and Q2

- Release one piece of content per day

- Grow my community of productized startups founders to 4k members

How did you go about building the community? Has it been worth the investment?
Totally! Building a community has helped me to know what customers wanted.

How I did it: - Started a small Facebook group, added friends - Started connecting on FB with productized service entrepreneurs, added them to the group - Mentioned the group in various places (Twitter/Indie Hackers/...)

Interesting, thanks for the info! Did you create a separate account for your product, or did you just use your personal account? What sort of information do you post to the group? Thanks again!
