#41: A Product Feature Experiment Turns into a Valuable Standalone SaaS Company – Massimo Arrigoni - Practical Founders Podcast | Transcription & Insights

Audio

Description

Massimo Arrigoni grew up in Milan, Italy, and moved to California 27 years ago to create software products and start a family, eventually moving to the San Francisco area in Silicon Valley. While leading product at the software company MailUp, a popular Italian email marketing software, his team built and tested a better visual editor for creating email templates and website landing pages. The free software tool called BEE ("Best Email Editor") became popular and a new product line was born. BEE end users love the modern and easy-to-use no-code editor which doesn't require email or credit card to use the product for free. The company also sells to SaaS developers who want to embed the BEE builder into their own apps instead of building their own visual editors. BEE is growing with no paid advertising or marketing spend. New users find their free template library and start to use the product instantly with a frictionless experience. Businesses now pay for the BEE Pro solution making up about half of company revenue and embedded plug-in makes up the rest. BEE is now a standalone company owned by parent Growens with 80 employees and over $10M in revenues. BEE has over 40.000 monthly users and 10,000 paying customers.
