People talk about “focus switching” when you combine a 9-5 and a side start-up.
But when you are building a SaaS after job you are actually LASER FOCUSED on needle-moving activities, because your time and energy are limited.
Also, if you are shipping every day even though you don't have enough time and energy, it means you truly want to achieve it, and excuses don't exist for you.
Lastly, with a high-income job, you can try more aggressive SaaS marketing, like ads, influencer marketing, hiring someone and be okay with failures.
That's my goal, to build a successful online business, while working 9-5, document it and prove that it is possible.
I don't know anyone who quit their job to live of savings and built something that made money before their savings run out except
@AndreyAzimov
I always think it's the wrong way to do it
I think you should build something on the side and once it makes equal or more money than your main job or freelance gigs and it's stable, quit the job and switch
Being unemployed somehow makes people lazy and feel too relaxed to build something, like your day is fully free of commitments which sounds ideal but freedom isn't when stuff is built I think, you need constraints
I had income from my YouTube channel Panda Mix Show in 2013 when I started, and it took over a year before I made enough money to switch
Obviously I wish him well but I think better do the switch than hard quit
