Personally I think ‘SaaS’ is too broad a topic for a once a week newsletter and it doesn’t give me (or any potential subscriber) much context into what I should expect to see in my inbox each week.
I would suggest trying to get hyper-focused, so you reach a very specific and tight audience.
Off the top of my head here are some potential example topics - Weekly SaaS Case Studies, Weekly SaaS API News, Weekly SaaS Design Breakdown, Weekly SaaS Failutes/Shutdowns, Weekly MicroSaaS Spotlight, etc.
I agree, being able to articulate the value you and your skills will bring to a company in a fresh and succinct manner is a superpower for any job market.
I thought this same thing, tough sell but I suppose it’s a decent option for those starting up; zoom for phone, meetings, collaboration, and then I guess email fits in.
I really can’t imagine many established teams moving everything over but Zoom may as well shoot for the moon or die trying.
I think there is an opportunity for them to make a calendly competitor that handles self service zoom meeting scheduling.
Another spot I’m surprised they aren’t embracing more is becoming a training and learning management platform since a lot of zoom recordings are trainings and they could help facilitate this in the platform.
This might be a way to get a post-mvp idea that was built using No-Code/Low-Code to a code base but for a new unproven idea I would say buyer-beware, unlikely to get you what you want.
Productivity adjacent discussions and communities are great places to strike up a conversation and find like-minded people that could benefit from your tool.
Asking how others are currently solving the problem your tool does is a good entryway. You can follow their answer with a suggestion to try your product if it sounds like it could be useful.
For more of a shotgun approach you can post on betalist, reddit /startups Share Your Startup thread, ShowHN, etc.
I think this a really interesting take on social chat/collaboration!
The main reason I closed it was I felt disoriented when I opened the threads. Since it brought me to the end of the chat I had to scroll to the top to catch up (which has some loading lag) so it felt like I had to do too much work to get engaged. Perhaps the opening post could be pinned at least?
The other part I got kind of lost with was the lack of a back button to return to the topics. Using the browser isn’t an issue, but the way the UI is presented it seemed like it would be there but I didn’t see it.
Congrats on a cool project! It’s nice to see some fresh takes on social.

Just my two cents, good luck!
