My #1 passion is teaching. #2 is building AI businesses. I’ve built and exited 3x tech companies. Invested in 100+ others. Spend 98.2% of my time building AI startups at Martell Ventures (AI Venture Studio) Wrote a WSJ best selling book https://www.BuyBackYourTime.com Play life full out (wake surfing, snowboarding, mountain biking) at the highest level… … and I love people and travelling the world with my family training and speaking on the biggest stages. Oh, and did all that after ending up in jail and rehab at 17 years old. It’s been a journey to say the least.

And get paid every month. Recurring revenue. If I lost all my money, followers, and network today, I'd still know exactly how to build a SaaS company from scratch. And today I’m going to share the 7 steps with you in this video. Building a SaaS business might seem daunting, especially if you're just starting out. A lot of people think they need to raise capital, hire a very expensive development team, and spend years in the red before their product takes off. But the key? Start with the problem, validate your solution, and then build and refine your product. You don’t need a huge team or a ton of money… Just a solid plan and the right approach. My 7-step guide is your map, and it includes: - How to pinpoint the exact problem your SaaS should solve - The secret to building a prototype without wasting time or money - 4 steps for creating a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) quickly IG: @danmartell X: @danmartell
