2023 taught me a lot and gave many valuable experiences

Did:
1. Sold burger brand ( opened in 2021)
2. Started working on SAAS ( coding never leaves you :P)
3. Made a education SAAS tool and sold it to a big firm
4. Got active on X (twitter)

Organic traffic doubled in about 6 weeks. Daily clicks went from ~100 to ~150+.
No ads, no backlink buying. Here’s exactly what we did 🧵

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

Latest Update on Greentick SEO, we have doubled our organic traffic on google now in just 1.5 month with average 70 clicks per day, couldn't met 10K target as currently focusing on feature requests by customers, new target is 5K/month.

@salbareesh @marclou @denk_tweets it's a difficult space, needs full time attention, not everyone's cup of tea, maybe Marc might fix these issues later on, who knows

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

@lngmnn8 security and durability is exactly the part that slows us down, and it should LoL

agent rollout: most of the agentic features are now completed, still doing the testing, it never ends i guess :P

selling SaaS to indie hackers is hard mode. they'll clone your app in a weekend just to avoid paying for it

GreenTick sells to businesses that run on WhatsApp. none of them want to vibe code anything, they just want their messages to go out

pick customers who'd rather pay than build

who are you selling to?

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

@progerallworld that's a clean design. remind at their time, skip if they already logged, then measure the meal entry

no results yet is fine, better than a fake win LoL

hi X 👋 i'm Akshay

building https://t.co/D618UeW61l from India, a WhatsApp API tool for businesses. shipping fast with AI and talking to customers before writing code

99 followers right now, 1 away from 100 LoL

looking to connect with indie hackers, SaaS builders and AI folks. drop what you're building 👇

@shanerounce isometric browser game sounds like a lot of fun LoL

frame rate vs pretty effects is a forever fight. photography for lighting is a smart hack

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

@naveenraju30 exactly LoL. half the businesses we talk to don't even check email the same day

WhatsApp is where the order and the complaint both live. that's why we built for it from India

what are you building at refcomm?

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

most SaaS advice on here assumes your customer reads email.

a huge part of the world runs its business on WhatsApp. orders, support, follow ups, all in one chat app.

that's who we're building GreenTick for, from India 🚀

if you sell into WhatsApp-first markets, say hi 👋

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

What’s next for us: lifting CTR (0.7% right now) with sharper titles, plus templates and free tools hubs.

If you’re building an SEO engine for a SaaS, steal this playbook.

We’re building https://t.co/UJS2HT4ke2, an official WhatsApp API platform with 0% markup on Meta charges.

6. Product pages that double as SEO pages

* Integration guides (Google Sheets to WhatsApp)
* Comparison and alternative pages
* Google Workspace Marketplace listing

Each one targets a high-intent query AND moves people to a free trial.

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

@hnshah underrated advice. the person on client calls knows more about your product than your roadmap does

code second, customers first

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

100% this. going niche is the cheat code for small teams right now

WhatsApp marketing for small businesses is too boring for the big labs to care about, and that's exactly why it's a great place to build LFG 🚀

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

@levelsio they'll eat every product that's just a feature on top of a model. what they won't eat is the boring stuff, like fixing a small business's WhatsApp template rejections at 11pm and knowing why they churned 😅

GreenTick week recap 🚀

shipped: MCP Server
shipped: Optimised Dashboard, Made Live Chat Smooth
fixed: Automation Workflow Bugs, and fixed onboarding issues

biggest lesson this week: BOFU and MOFU leakage is more important that working on TOFU, also I said it already but engage with users and understand their pain points, no one wants to sit with AI and discuss their issues, a real human connection is still valuable

next week: Mail and WhatsApp Marketing Automation. what did you ship this week?

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

@ThreadBites Thanks buddy, long way to go 😊

[Akshay Agrawal (building greentick.ai) @iiakshayii]

shipped a lot on GreenTick this week with AI doing most of the typing LoL

what's new 👇
- GreenTick MCP server. your AI agent can now run contacts, broadcasts, templates, flows, automations, AI bot, inbox and team straight from chat
- GreenTick plugin for Claude
- live chat got quick replies, AI reply and a fresh redesign
- faster template loading inside live chat
- better search across all your WhatsApp accounts
- new docs for MCP, Meta setup, Google Sheets and click to chat widget

most of this came from customer calls. build, sell, repeat 🚀
