Joseph LeeSerial Entrepreneur $10,000 Supademo ARR
Published April 20, 2023 by Niall Doherty

Joseph Lee writes that his new Chrome extension is already earning $10,000 in annual recurring revenue

I wanted to take a moment to publicly celebrate hitting $10k ARR and 1000+ Chrome store downloads for our side-project, Supademo

In a nutshell, Supademo allows anyone to create and share interactive demos or tours in <5 minutes.

It’s a pretty cool product, similar to screencast software like Loom but you can add interactive steps to guide people through a tour/demo.

Joe goes on to share lessons learned and growth channels that have worked well.

One of the latter

Posting and commenting on Reddit and Indiehackers – actually trying to add value while plugging your startup where helpful

You can see all of Joe’s Reddit posts and comments here. And his co-founder Koushik Marka seems to be the one posting on Indie Hackers.

The same type of post did best with each community…

Share your SaaS and I’ll make you a shareable interactive demo (Reddit)Post your product, and I’ll create an interactive product demo for your marketing website (IH)

Could you try doing something similar to promote your own product or service?

For example:

Web designers: offer to critique people’s homepagesCopywriters: offer to create a better headline and intro for any articleVideographers: offer to cut up a long video into a snappy social clip

Or, if you have a SaaS like Joe and Koushik, offer to use the tool yourself to generate some value for people in the community.

You could even do this with a software tool you have access to. 

For example, you could offer to do some basic keyword research via Ahrefs for your followers on Twitter.
