xjoneson Ask HN: How much recurring income do you generate, and from what?

Patrick, big fan of your writing and projects like most others here.

Any new Kalzumeus Podcasts coming down the line?

I'd love to see some more posts on Appointment Reminder too. I think many of us could benefit from your insights on selling B2B SaaS products.

Dan, I respect your decision to not discuss numbers, but judging by the quality of your products I'd have to guess you're generating an extremely healthy revenue stream.

Of all the SaaS entrepreneurs I've found, you seem to be the one who's closest to exactly where I want to be eventually (running a suite of SaaS products).

Do you have any general tips for people following the same path? Anything you'd do differently?

I don't have any questions, but I'd just like to say I'm an avid follower of your project and blog, and I truly appreciate your transparency.

This is the exact kind of thing I need to read right now. Thank you.

Over 100 new paying customers per month is incredible in my opinion. Especially for what I would guess is one of the most competitive SaaS markets out there. If I can reach that many total customers on my cheapest plan I will be ecstatic.

If you don't mind me asking, what user acquisition channels have you found most effective for selling to small businesses?

Great job on both of those! Very impressive.

I definitely think the SaaS startup is relevant here. I just used the same title as the last thread, but personally I'd like to hear about any sort of recurring revenue. And as someone who's developing their own SaaS product right now, I need all the motivation I can get from others' success stories.

I don't wish to pressure you about your metrics, but how long did it take you to get your SaaS startup to where it is now? And are you working on it solo?
