What do you think about product partnership and co-marketing activities for micro-saas products?

Question

Micro-saas products work in integration with each other. Products that are each focused on solving a clear problem. While these products aim to solve common problems as a working logic, shouldn't they also focus on co-marketing as a marketing strategy? What do you think about this?

It sounds like a good idea. Investing in integration with Zapier or Integromate can be valuable for a micro-saas.

Product partnership and co-marketing activities have been a soft way to gain market exposure, get noticed by customers, and grow your customer base. As long as you are aware of the risks and take appropriate steps to handle any issues that could arise, this kind of marketing activity is worth trying.

@nabeel_amir We agree that it is a should try. What are the risks of co-marketing?

Yahya Tür · Answer

@fabian_maume Tools like Zapier solve the integration issue pretty well. In addition, most micro-saas are trying to reach the same niche audience. Doing marketing activities together, perhaps making discounts that will attract attention to each other's users, or entering each other's e-bulletins will provide mutual benefits.

One of my favorite SaaS bloggers, Tomasz Tunguz, recently wrote a great post about the types of value SaaS products have. Understanding and articulating that value is, in fact, the defining factor around which you should build your customer acquisition strategy. Below is a translation of his article and our own experience. There are only three options for how software can benefit the customer: increase revenue, reduce costs, or increase productivity. To maximize the effectiveness of your work with customers, you need to understand what type of SaaS product (and ultimately company) you are building. Yield enhancing software is the easiest to sell. For most companies navigate to this website , growth is the top priority. Growth is even more important than cost reduction, because it has a stronger effect on increasing the value of the business. Accordingly, products that increase profitability have a shorter sales cycle, and a larger budget that customers are willing to allocate for their purchase. Most SaaS applications that accelerate sales and generate leads fall into this category.
