Shownotes
I talked to John Wright, the founder of a SaaS company called StatsDrone, which helps affiliate businesses track their various affiliate programs. John has scaled his company to around 20K MRR with around 100 customers, primarily using an innovative outreach process. He uses a personlised 2-minute video within his cold outreach process & he is seeing extra ordinary conversion rates.
