This screenshot might not seem like much...
2 sales?! Woopdie freakin do??
Here's why I'm so excited:
- This SaaS product does NOT exist yet. Not only that, the landing page has only 3 screenshots of a super rough product that the founder cobbled together with Claude code.
- These sales were from a brand new FB ad account to a frigid cold audience.
- He didn't show his face, no one knows who he is, so these folks didn't buy because they "know, like and trust" him.
- The landing page isn't *that* good. No fancy designs, Java motion graphics, etc.
- The first sale came on day 3 of a 7 day campaign. After the two sales we turned the campaign off because SALES = VALIDATION. Even if it's only a couple.
- This fella can now BUILD his SaaS, knowing that people will buy it.
Because of Claude code and Codex, this non-developer can know build his SaaS in a couple of weeks, then when it's ready to launch, just turn the ads back on and start getting sales.
If someone tells you:
- "You need to build an MVP before anyone will buy"
- "Facebook ads don't work"
- "You can't sell a SaaS without a demo or free trial"
- "You need to pick an idea that's NeVeR BeeN DonE bEfore!"
Show them this.
