306: Johannes Radig — Traveling the World and Raising Prices
Johannes Radig (@joradig) runs a SaaS from the Canary Islands — the most recent stop on a globe-spanning digital nomad trip. Johannes and I chat about building a software business for agencies, how hard it is to find just the right prices, and what traditional marketing efforts can do for indie hackers.
We dive into Leadsie, the social media onboarding SaaS he co-founded, and how it is built as a calm and profitable business.
Also, we both grew up in the same city. And now we live on opposites sides of the world. Here's two indie hackers catching up:
