Why I work async

Tell me what you've got in writing, and you'll get a straight answer.

You asked for a call. I sent you here instead.

I'm not avoiding you. SaaS Club is a one-person creator business. No team, no gatekeeper, so you're already talking to the person who decides. It also means I have to be deliberate about where the hours go.

Email is better for both of us, at least to start.

Most people who ask for my time want to pitch me something

A sponsorship, a partnership, an affiliate deal, a tool, a guest.

That's fine, and some of it turns into real business. But I can read a written pitch in two minutes and tell you yes or no. A call takes thirty, and most of it goes on things that could have been the first paragraph of an email.

And if it's a fit, we don't need a call to get it done. I run everything here over email, deals included.

I'm not against talking to people

I've recorded 489 podcast interviews since 2014. I talk to founders for a living.

But those conversations are booked in advance, prepared for, and have a clear point. That's different from an open half hour to find out whether there's something to discuss.

What to send me

If you're pitching something, put this in the email:

  • What you're proposing.
  • What's in it for my audience.
  • The numbers: budget, terms, dates, whatever applies.
  • Links, so I can look at it myself.

I'll give you a straight answer, usually within a day or two. If it's a no, you'll know quickly and you can spend your time elsewhere. If it's a yes, we'll take it from there.
