About this episode

In this episode, we explore how indie developer Sarah Jenkins grew her Chrome extension, PageWatch, to 10K monthly recurring revenue with zero venture capital and a single distribution channel: the Chrome Web Store. We break down her pricing strategy, the decision to keep it a simple one-feature tool, and how she used a viral tweet to acquire her first 500 users. Plus, Lucas and Luna discuss the economics of building a micro-SaaS as a solo founder in 2026. #SoloDeveloper #ChromeExtension #IndieHacker #SaaS #MRR #SideProject #MicroSaaS #PageWatch #SarahJenkins #Bootstrapping #10KMRR #Distribution #ChromeWebStore #PricingStrategy #ViralMarketing #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
