How a Solo Dev Hit 10K MRR Without a Public Product
About this episode
In this episode of The Indie Hacker Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore a counterintuitive path to 10K MRR: building a product that no one can see. They dissect the story of a solo developer who runs a SaaS for internal developer tools, selling only through private GitHub repos and personal referrals. No landing page, no signup flow, no trial—just a flat annual license. Lucas breaks down the unit economics: $12,000 per customer, just 10 clients to hit $10K MRR. Luna challenges the scalability of the model, and they discuss when invisibility is a feature, not a bug. Tune in for a fresh take on indie hacking that flips conventional wisdom about marketing and distribution. #IndieHacker #SaaS #SoloDeveloper #InternalDeveloperTools #PrivateProduct #NoLandingPage #10KMRR #GitHub #ReferralSales #Bootstrapping #Tech #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheIndieHackerPodcast #Revenue #UnitEconomics #InvisibleProduct Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
