@ZenMaid's MRR since January 2024.

+30.57% growth

We're just getting started 🤘🏻

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

Two founders asked me yesterday:

“We're about to spend $10K/month on an agency. What would you do?”

I said:

✅ Put more into demand gen
✅ Hire a video editor
✅ Run paid tests
✅ Build awareness + trust

Agencies can help (I run one), but early on - traction > retainer.

@pjmcgeary I've worked for a variety of SaaS companies, and one basically had their software buckle overnight (vendors cut ties with them), and had it fully functional within 24 hours.

So, generally not long if you have a good foundation.

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@ianncushing Nice! This is why SEO is such a great investment. Usually the initial "push" and small, ongoing adjustments can lead to this. It's a long-term play, but satisfying when it gets going.

Hoping things pick up even more!

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@AlexLathery Agree to disagree. @ZenMaid is and has been running smoothly. Like butter on a hot pancake

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@ben_2446 The definition of blue sky thinking. Haha

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@doctor_of_clean Sorry to hear this. Not to try and swoop in and sell anyone, but I lead marketing here at @ZenMaid and we're always around to demo our product if anyone is looking to switch.

We also offer uploads for those who want to keep operations running smoothly.

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@SABiggy @doctor_of_clean @SABiggy It's not as straightforward and depends on the number of cleaners. Our pricing is just that - to accommodate businesses of all sizes.

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@MaxArnold99 @JacobWBailey Anywhere from $4 to $24, but I think you knew that. Ha. Happy to dive deeper. Super neat what you're building, too!

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@MuditP1 Come try ZenMaid if you do want to explore other options. I lead marketing here and would be glad to give you my personal email to answer any questions (DM me)

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@MaxArnold99 @JacobWBailey We charge a base price and then a small monthly fee per additional user.

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@SABiggy @doctor_of_clean Hey! Ryan from ZenMaid here. No bricks in these woods but since we're talking about prices, I'm clarifying that we went from 2 plans (free and paid at $49 per month) to 3 plans ($19, $39, and $49 per month).

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@JacobWBailey @MaxArnold99 @JacobWBailey If that's what you gathered from that interaction, please read it again. I assure you that's not what was communicated.

We have 3 tiers of pricing now ($19/mo, $39/mo, and $49/mo), which is more than fair. Let's chat about your situation specifically. Here to help

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@MaxArnold99 @JacobWBailey How so?

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@remotecleanguy I'm a bit biased but I hear @ZenMaid doesn't take vacations

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

@JacobWBailey @MaxArnold99 Hey! Ryan from ZenMaid here. We did not double our prices - we went from 2 plans (free and paid) to 3 paid plans; our lowest starts at $19 per month.

Transparency, accountability, and delivering real results - that’s what we’re about.

Starting this journey was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Here’s to the next chapter. 🚀

If you’ve ever thought about launching your own business, what’s holding you back?

[Ryan Williams @demandgenryan]

Why did I start @CommonstateAr?

After working at three marketing agencies earlier in my career, I couldn’t shake the thought: “What if I launched one of my own?”

If you’ve ever worked at a service-based business, you know the feeling.
