Josh and Nate are avid podcast listeners who listen and learn from the best SaaS podcasts and SaaS entrepreneurs such as:
The Official Saastr Podcast by Jason Lemkin
SaaS Breakthrough
Nathan Latka
Dan Martell
The Saas Revolution Show by Alex Theuma of SaaStock
Saas Startup podcast
The Saas Podcast by Omer Khan of SaaS Club
Startup Chat by Hiten Shah and Steli Efti
But they truly drew inspiration from the the Software Social Podcast where their friends Colleen and Michele have created a fantastic dynamic between two SaaS founders at different stages of their business.
Legend has it that Josh say’s this exact quote to Nate: “What do you think about starting a podcast? I’ll be Michele, you can be Colleen”.
What types of SaaS business topics are covered?
So far they’ve learned a lot about how they each approach ideation, market validation, and the mentality of building assets. They plan on covering more SaaS topics in the future like MRR, ARR, churn, onboarding, customer success, bootstrapping, co-founders, SaaS product, B2B SaaS, growth hacking, entrepreneurship, SaaS marketing, case studies, content marketing, SEO, growth strategies, being a serial entrepreneur, and marketing strategies. All with both actionable advice and actionable insights.
While both Nate and Josh are bootstrapped, this startup chat style podcast is not exclusively about bootstrapping.
Both Nate and Josh agree that the process of sharing our journey’s as in public as SaaS founders has been both rewarding and fun. Nate approaches this whole process with a beginner’s mindset, yet he’s far from a beginner. While Josh tries to stay open-minded and is careful not to give blanket advice.
Join the guys each week for new episodes wherever you listen to podcasts. (and yes there maybe some SaaS but mostly just josh-splaining)
