how i experiment to grow my saas without burning cash:

  1. micro-content on x and linkedin
  2. post 1-2 sentence tips daily about your niche.
  3. join trending threads on x with thoughtful replies to get eyes on your profile.
  4. pin a post linking to your landing page, but make it value-first (like a free guide).
  5. spend 20 minutes a day engaging, and you’ll build a following without ads.

  6. collaborate with other founders

  7. dm 3 to 5 indie hackers in your space for a newsletter swap or blog guest post. i got 200 signups from one swap.

  8. offer to write a case study for a complementary tool’s blog - free exposure, high trust.

  9. join indie hacker meetups (virtual or local) to find collab partners.

  10. keep it low stakes, small partnerships often lead to bigger ones.

  11. low-cost seo experiments

  12. target super-specific keywords with low competition, like “task manager for remote teams 2025.” i rank 3rd for one and get 10 signups a month.

  13. write one 1000-word blog post a month packed with practical tips, not fluff.

  14. use free tools like answer the public to find what your audience searches.

  15. link to your signup page subtly in every post to drive conversions.

  16. leverage user feedback loops

  17. email every new user after 7 days to ask what they love or hate. i fixed a ui issue from one reply and cut churn by 5%.

  18. add a feedback form in your app with one question: “what’s one thing we could do better?”

  19. share quick wins (like new features) on x to show you listen.

  20. turn happy users into case studies for your site - real stories convert.

tiny bets let you test, learn, and grow without risking it all.

i would like to know what small experiments are you running for your saas..
