Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

And we'd try and win...

three or four in each industry.

And that was how we won the clients.

But the clients really weren't where we were focusing.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

At that point, we're not focusing on the clients.

Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

We're focusing on getting footprint.

So when we won Eurocar Parts, we wanted to collect as many reviews for that company as possible.

And that'd get as many labels on the reviews that I own name as possible.

And then the revenue would come.

So generally, once we collected, say, thousands of reviews, I mean, look, we collected 57,000 reviews for GSF there.

Once we collected a huge amount of reviews, all the people in the client street were like, these guys are doing amazing.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

They're doing amazing things with a review site.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

Let's give them a call.

So as we won one client and did amazing, you know, help them collect the reviews at the right time.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

So they got really high conversion, collect really good looking reviews with photos, really good content.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

That'd really power that flywheel to get more.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

We already ranked quite well for those pages.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

We found that if we got two or three reviews on a profile, the page would start to do really well.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

And we'd listen for people talking about GSF car parts or Euro car parts.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Bootstrapped to $82M: How Callum Mckeefery Built Reviews.io from His Kitchen Table

And we'd go, hey, why don't you leave a review?
