What is Micro SaaS?

Micro SaaS refers to a new breed of software applications that are focused on delivering a specific functionality or service to a focussed micro niche of users. In many ways, Micro SaaS represents the next generation of software development, where users subscribe to smaller pieces of software that solve specific problems for them.

One of the key advantages of Micro SaaS is that it enables developers to quickly build and deploy applications without having to worry about the complexities of traditional enterprise software development.

Additionally, because Micro SaaS applications are typically cloud-based, they can be easily accessed and used by anyone with an internet connection.

Why is Micro SaaS gaining traction with developers?

First and foremost, Micro SaaS enables developers to quickly build and deploy applications without having to worry about the complexities of traditional enterprise software development. This has led to a proliferation of new and innovative applications that wouldn’t have been possible without Micro SaaS.

Second, the pay-as-you-go subscription model used by most Micro SaaS providers makes it very affordable for startups and small businesses to get started with using these types of applications. This subscription model also gives developers a steadier stream of revenue than they would likely see if they were selling their application outright.

Thirdly, working remotely is more appealing than ever now and having the ability to work on your own Micro SaaS and control your own time & income is very desirable.

My Micro SaaS Journey

From time and location freedom to a fresh sense of independence, there is a lot to gain by developing Micro SaaS applications.

For me personally, I’ve been able to:

- Earn multiple 6 figures in subscription income.

- Quit my life-sapping 9–5 job.

- Banish pointless meetings, office politics, chaos & firefighting.

- Work when I want.

- Work wherever and in whatever technologies I want.

- Spend more time with family.

- Have a better connection with the users of the apps I develop.

- Have way more financial stability

- Earn multiple 6 figures when I finally exited and sold my Micro SaaS apps.

If any of the above points resonate with you then it’s worth imagining what your life could look like if you didn’t have to work the 9–5 and you had greater control of your life and more freedom. If that sounds good then read on and hopefully, I can help to show you a potential road to freedom.
