On Thursday, we threw the second ever @RamenClubHQ Live event in London, and it was a huge success! 🇬🇧🍜 Our headline fireside chat with my friends and VEED.IO co-founders @sab8a & @tmrmmdv was a full-circle moment. They've been coming to our meetups since before they had revenue, and 5 years later, they're making 10s of millions per year in ARR (after starting off bootstrapping). These sessions are deliberately unrecorded – so we can have real conversations and learnings that you'll never hear on a podcast, and it more than delivered. This was a masterclass in tactics, insights and inside stories on how to grow a SaaS from $0 to $1m ARR in a year, and way beyond that. We had two other fantastic talks. @im_max_sinclair shared "The 20-Minute SaaS Paid Ads Masterclass", giving us the download from years creating successful paid ads campaigns for major clients. And @tobenxe shared her journey learning to code then building/growing SellerAider (a huge SaaS and community for eCommerce sellers) to 2,000 customers by age 24. Each event is designed to help you launch and grow your own bootstrapped SaaS – and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Our plan is to make these more regular, eventually ending up in our own RamenConf someday 👀 Watch this space people. Thanks to our amazing speakers, attendees and of course @PaddleHQ for hosting us again. We'll be back very soon. 🫶

Between the odd occasions I use it, I forget just how well thought out @monzo's on-call compensation is On-call is: 🙋 Totally optional 💰 Paid per shift whether you get paged or not 🌴 Repaid with time off in lieu if you do get paged A thread on why that works so well 👇🏻 1/7
