In SaaS, I think one of the biggest traps you can get yourself into as a founder is doing Low ROI things for one minute longer than you have to. Of course, this is true in all start-ups.

Years ago, I was a legal assistant for a criminal defense law firm when my boss assigned me a new task – learning SEO. . I asked him what SEO meant, and he responded, “Search engine optimization. I don’t trust the people I’m working with anymore and need you to learn it.” .
