  • Learn how to create a self funded startup step by step

    Microconf is the best resource out there for those wanting to start a self funded business, like a SaaS app for instance. I’ve been following the content since 2016 and I credit a lot of what I have learnt and that has enabled me to create a $250,000 ARR two-person bootstrapped company at age 30 to this resource. It’s the best education you’ll ever get and extremely practical!

  • MicroConf talks in my podcatcher? Awesome!!

    Thanks Rob, Mike and Xander for getting these into podcast format!

    I’ve not had the opportunity to get to MicroConf yet and avidly await each years recordings as they become available.

    Podcast format makes it so much more accessible to me as putting time aside to watch is hard, time to listen is easy!
