What is SaaS? Digital real estate. Recurring income. I've spent 8 years working in Silicon Valley and 2 years trying to make money online. During the start of the pandemic, I realized everything I learned was wrong.

Before you start
Is it still current?
No recording date is listed. This is a business course, not a coding one, so most of it ages slowly: what a SaaS needs and common myths (lessons 1–9), hiring and partners (4, 6, 15), markets and ideas (8, 19, 21) and marketing (16). Lessons 10–13 are case studies of specific products, and lessons 22–23 are 3- and 4-month progress updates, so read their numbers as a snapshot from that time.
What you end up with
No app and no code. It is talks, product case studies and guest interviews (lessons 15, 20, 24–25) that help you pick an idea, a team and a launch approach. If you also need to build the product, pair it with a coding course.
