Your piece on indie SaaS margins — small follow-up from a founder in the trenches

Hi Rebecca,

I read your piece on why bootstrapped SaaS is quietly winning against venture-backed tools(Apr 14) — the line about “operating on thirds of the burn rate” matched our numbers almost exactly.

I'm the founder of Warmly. We're doing $42k MRR, team of three, no outside money — competing directly with a Series B company that's raised $38M. I'd love to share the actual P&L if it's useful for a follow-up.

Happy to be a data point, or pass. No follow-ups from me either way.

What you get — and don't.

01

Reporters who cover what you do.

Filtered by beat, outlet and what they've actually published in the last 90 days. Not a purchased list.

02

Angles a journalist will pick up.

Specific hooks, not "we're announcing our seed round."

03

Pitches tailored to their last article.

Every draft references the reporter's most recent piece. You send from your own inbox.

04

Replies in days. Not months.

Eight targeted sends beats two hundred sprays. Every time.

Most founders pitch 200 reporters and hear back from zero. We pitch 8, and they reply.

Founders who ditched the retainer.

Maya

Founder, AI tooling

Honestly didn't think this would work. A couple reporters actually wrote back.

Marcus

Founder, fintech

Cancelled our retainer last month. Haven't looked back yet.

Priya

Founder, healthtech

Drafts needed tweaks, but the core was mine. That surprised me.

Jordan

Founder, climate

Got a reply I wasn't expecting. More than my last year of DIY.

Sam

Founder, SaaS

Not perfect, but way more useful than the agency we were paying.

Chen

Founder, edtech

Doesn't do everything. Does the annoying research part I hated.

Alex

Founder, enterprise

Reads like me once I adjust a few lines. More than I expected.

Isabel

Founder, consumer

Took a while to trust it. Glad I did.
