Webinar Recap: What to Know Before Launching Your First SaaS Webinar recap: What first-time SaaS founders get wrong, and how to get it right. Real advice from makers who’ve launched, failed, learned, and grown.

We kicked off Part 1 of our SaaS series and asked 3 founders what they wish they’d done differently before launch.

Spoiler: it’s not about building faster. It’s about knowing when to stop, price smart, and ship early.

Full recap’s live if you missed it → freemius.com/blog/launchi...

How Much You Really Pay in Stripe Fees on $10K Monthly Revenue Think Stripe costs just 2.9%? At $10K/month, hidden fees and time-drain tell a different story. Here’s the real math and a smarter way forward.

Add FX, dunning, tax compliance, admin… and you may be losing up to 9% of your revenue.

We call it the Indie Tax.

Here’s how to calculate the real cost and how to skip the pain with a smarter setup: freemius.com/blog/stripe-...
