Be a part of The Value SaaS Community

When our founders joined Upekkha, they were first-time entrepreneurs with no background in building SaaS. As a part of the community, they gained the confidence and clarity to double their recurring revenue growth every year.

The community found support to reject the brainwashing of the ‘go big or go home’ mindset. Yes, it is possible to both grow and be in control. Join more than 250+ founders who are following what we call the Value SaaS path at Upekkha. 

3 reasons to join Upekkha SaaS Accelerator

Start your SaaS revenue flywheel spinning

Product-market fit is a broken metaphor- a language investors use, but founders don’t. Instead of talking about product-market fit, experienced SaaS founders use the SaaS flywheel to generate recurring revenue.

SaaS Flywheel is when you spend less than $1 to make a dollar. Your business has real momentum on its own to support its growth.

Become part of a community of founders and avoid careless mistakes

Following irrelevant frameworks & stale playbooks can send you down pointless paths. Instead of spending more of your precious time trying to mimic what someone else has done, join a group of founders at the same stage of their business as you are. You will get real life lessons and up-to-date resources that help you create results faster. 

Being part of a group like this can also save you years by preventing careless mistakes 

Grow your SaaS while keeping your options open

There is more to scaling a SaaS than growth at any cost. When you build a SaaS flywheel that’s capital-efficient without diluting too much you will maintain freedom to do what you want with the business. 

Why does maintaining optionality matter? Because you can choose to say no to ugly term sheets or any hostile acquisitions.
