Hey Product Hunters & SaaS Founders! On my birthday today, I'm happy to treat you with a tool. A customizable no-code calculator - developed to help you organize & close more annual deals for your SaaS. 💸 Made with ❤️ after learning from own mistakes.
I started working in the SaaS space in 2019.
Working on the job, I made a big mistake. While preparing an annual contract, I ended up making the wrong calculations for the contract. It was the biggest annual deal (NCV> 6 figure) our company was witnessing and there was a mad rush backed with 2 months of conversations.
I was lucky enough to fix it at that time due to good customer relations and genuine feedback from my boss.
But I also realized a need to formalize and document a process around framing and making a calculator for closing my annual SaaS deals more efficiently.
Accept it- It's tedious 🤯 to start working again on every deal from scratch. Sometimes, you could end up getting it wrong or miss some crucial steps.
It's also important to mention and explain to your customers the variables of an annual contract.
What else does it include?
1. SaaS founders who're in their early stages who don't even have an annual template ready - bookmark this! (attached a sample template from YC in the resources section - use at own convenience).
2. You'll also find an article on how I landed my first $100k client using the same calculator in the spreadsheet.
P.S.: It's also my birthday today(14th April), so I'm giving this away totally free as a treat 😉.
Hope you enjoy this!
