"The goal of this podcast is to help business builders learn some best practices when they go looking for their first 10, to expose the things worth doing and the things that might be dead ends and ultimately cost time and money. We should all be recycling these days, and when it comes to understanding your customers and how you talk to them, there's a ton of value that my guests have shared that is worth repeating." – Conor McCarthy.
Welcome to the final episode of season 4 of The First 10 Podcast, and what a season it has been! This season, we have heard from an array of inspirational serial entrepreneurs who have created multiple businesses who kindly took the time to openly and honestly share their biggest learnings, challenges and wins with us.
Helping business builders is at the heart of this podcast, and valuable golden nuggets of advice come with each new episode. So, to close off this season, we will be doing a re-cap with each of our guests to learn their top tips for someone just starting out and hoping to obtain their first ten customers.

Top 10 Avoidable Mistakes SaaS Startups Make with Rob Walling
‘’In a start-up, you can’t move slowly because your competition is not moving slowly.’’ – Rob Walling.
On this bonus episode of the First 10 Podcast, I have something a little different for you. I asked Rob Walling, serial entrepreneur, investor, author, and host of the popular podcast ‘Startups for the Rest of Us’ , if I could reshare the audio from a Youtube video he posted entitled "Top 10 Avoidable Mistakes SaaS Startups Make". When I saw this video, I knew I had to share it. Its short, and stuffed with classic (and not so classic) pitfalls to avoid when building your SaaS.
Rob truly is a wealth of knowledge in building great businesses. Through his widespread books, recordings, articles, and discussions – Rob has guided thousands of start-up founders and continues to do just that through vlogs on his MicroConf YouTube channel. I'm grateful to Rob for letting me share this content, and of course, subscribe to his YouTube channel (link below!)
Grab a pen and the nearest notebook as Rob shares his no-nonsense, fluff-free guide on successfully building your start-up, revealing the top 10 avoidable mistakes SaaS start-ups make.
