Should I stop now?

[mrustams]

Hello, my name is Rustam,.. Nice to meet you all !

I have been developing a SaaS for team collaboration and project management for the past 2 years or so.

I have developed features that I think other competitors don't have. So I am very confident that I can help users collaborate with their teams and also manage projects. The feature development has been through interviews with several people who use the project management platform, so I am sure it will be very helpful for users.

(Although I am sure there are many shortcomings in my platform compared to other competitors.)

I have tried advertising on Google Ads, Facebook and also doing cold emails, but it is not optimal, because it costs a lot. And during the ad testing period there have been no paid users on this platform.

Should I stop now?

I am confused about where else to promote it, because of lack of funds, using the SEO method but I feel it is not effective because my website does not have authority and it takes a long time to get rankings for the right keywords.

I hope to get good advice and direction, what should I do next. Thank you very much

I am no SaaS expert but your story, especially that "interviews with several people who use the project management platform" part looks like you would definitely benefit from the book "The right it" by Alberto Savoia. It is a short read, but a very enlightening one and covers this specific set of cases.

Take a look at it before stopping

Hi Rustam! It sounds like you’ve put in a lot of effort into your SaaS. For promoting your platform, consider exploring partnerships with industry influencers or offering a free trial to attract initial users. SEO takes time, but it can be more cost-effective in the long run.
