The beginning of a journey documenting the creation of micro SaaS from scratch.

# Welcome

Hello! I'm Marco Elizalde, and this is the beginning of something I've wanted to do for a long time: **documenting the process of creating micro SaaS**.

## Why this blog

Throughout my journey as a developer, I've created two products:

- **[The Flowtion](https://theflowtion.com/)**: Premium templates for Notion
- **[Braix Chat](https://www.braixchat.com/)**: WhatsApp bot integrated with Notion

Both projects have taught me a lot about product development, marketing, and entrepreneurship. I want to share those lessons here.

## What you'll find

In this blog I will document:

1. **Development process**: Technical decisions, tech stack, architecture
2. **Idea validation**: How to find and validate micro SaaS ideas
3. **Marketing and launch**: Strategies that work (and those that don't)
4. **Metrics and results**: Complete transparency about numbers

## The journey

The idea is to create a new micro SaaS from scratch and document the entire process. From the initial idea to the first paying users.

It won't be perfect. I'm going to make mistakes. But that's part of the learning process.

If you're interested in creating your own micro SaaS or simply enjoy following this type of project, this blog is for you.

See you in the next post.

— Marco
