I make $2.2m ARR, and this is how I sell SAAS with ChatGPT Astra (step-by-step tactics) 🤯

Postiz is making $2.2m ARR. Might be a little lucky there! But I also have a system to get millions of views across channels, and you guessed it, a lot of it is through Postiz (dogfooding). You can use Postiz to do it, but honestly, any social media agentic tool can work.

$186,713 MRR = $2,240,559 ARR

My Mantra (my beliefs)

I believe a person needs to see you many times before buying from you.

I believe that, in order to get exponential growth, you should focus mostly on social media and make yourself viral as much as possible.

I believe that being viral is a matter of money and growth hacking.

I believe every person can make a shitload of money, but not by doing what everybody is doing.

Outcomes

When you sell something, after you have picked your niche, you have two ways of selling: you can sell a tool alternative, or you can sell a new opportunity.

Let’s take Postiz, an agentic social media scheduling tool. As a tool, it allows you to connect any agent and schedule a post to 30+ social media channels. That’s nice, but it already has many competitors. We are all fighting for the same piece of the cake, so it becomes a “features” fight or a build vs buy, since it’s being sold to technical people.

Generally speaking, it is a growing market since it’s new, but we are selling to people who are looking for it.

People can just ask ChatGPT for exactly what they are looking for; they’ll get Postiz (maybe) as one of the results.

That’s selling the alternative, and you will always get into a roadblock there.

If you want to really pass the $100k MRR, you need to sell a new opportunity (outcome), and that is much harder, but much more rewarding.

Outcomes can be:

• How to “hack” X content so you can get 200k-7m views.

• How to run UGC pages that get millions of views

• Showing you how you can get millions of views by using TikTok slideshows

So let’s take an example.

A person has a B2C mobile app and not sure how to promote it. That person is now being exposed to a Postiz article about how to get millions of views on TikTok and make money.

That person didn’t look for an agentic social media scheduler, but now they can use it to make money. I created the demand; that’s how you remove yourself from the competition and create a new category for yourself.

Now I will share tactics that you can use together with the outcome technique to push your SaaS.

Before we start, I invite you to join Postiz for a 7-day free trial to implement those tactics.

Once you do, you can connect it to any agent you want: ChatGPT / Claude / Grok Bot / Hermes / OpenClaw / Cursor.

But I do think you should pick ChatGPT / OpenClaw / Hermes so you can pick ChatGPT 6 Astra, which is next level (AGI).

1️⃣ How to “hack” X content so you can get 200k-7m views.

Since I own Postiz, I’m using many social media channels to push Postiz. I found X super easy, and it works really well with agents. The thing is that X is kind of an interest-based media channel. If many people are talking about something specific, and you make content about that something specific:

• X will push your content to those people

• X will push your content through the trending feed (if it’s there)

And guess what? All that agentic stuff is one of the hottest topics on X. Because I knew ChatGPT was releasing ChatGPT Astra, I made it the main subject of this article.

Since Postiz works with any LLM, it doesn’t matter which LLM is trending right now - it will fit. So you can just prepare content beforehand.

Here’s my tactic; feel free to adjust it.

On Monday, I will create a video on X and publish it. The video should be super valuable, talk about how to make money and mention Postiz, but not sell Postiz.

I usually try to align my SaaS outcome with the video’s outcome. Postiz’s goal is to make money, so the video’s goal is to help you make money. If I nail the video, you will remember Postiz forever.

Making a totally “self-promotional” video/motion graphic video is “direct selling,” and it’s very hard to go viral with the right audience without actually paying influencers to push it.

And I almost never use influencers with my content.

So once I have my video ready, I will post it and be “in the launch”; it means that for every person who comments, I will reply. Even if it means just writing “❤️” or “🙏🏻”. I want X to think the content is good.

Now that’s the 1st launch. But over the week, I will keep on launching it.

I will just QRT the video again and again and pump it with views. Just because you launched it doesn’t mean you can’t keep making more and more until something goes viral.

You can even clip some content from the original video and QRT it, Postiz can make it easier for you.

Next week, I will use ChatGPT Astra on my video to convert the entire video into an article. I will use Whisper (from ChatGPT) and Postiz to schedule it, as it’s the fastest way to create it.

Articles are extremely effective because the algorithem rewarding content pieces that people spend a lot of time reading (staying on the platform), and they also get amazing SEO on the SERP later (high DR domain).

I will also give ChatGPT my previous articles so it can match my voice. It’s kinda funny: 1-2 years ago, it would never match your voice and would add a lot of those em dashes “—”; now it’s just perfect.

If you have some articles that you have never used AI with, the new article created will be impossible to be detected as AI.

Once the article is ready, I will spend a lot of time perfecting the title and the cover picture (just like on YouTube) since this is what you see before you click on the article - so it’s kinda the most important thing.

I will also put the keywords I want X to target.

And then, you guessed it again, I will QRT it again and again during the week.

Here is an example:

2️⃣ How to run UGC pages that get millions of views

This growth hack works right now; I am not sure for how long. You should definitely assume you can get banned, so when you do it, create new accounts - more on this later.

This growth hack is specific to Instagram and Facebook; of course, when you use Postiz, you can cross-post it to YouTube and TikTok as well.

We have been running a lot of those videos:

This is basically a hook + outcome + how-to + CTA. Almost every day, the same; just change the hook. What we have seen so far (especially on Facebook) is that each video gets around 200-500 views, until one gets 200k+ views; that takes around 30 videos (once a day). It’s pretty easy to create the variation, and you can also use agent-media to create the UGC at the beginning of the video.

It’s important to add a CTA like “comment ‘something’ to get ’something ’,” as many people will comment, and it will push your video more.

This has become a well-known tactic for B2B, and I found so many of my friends on X who are doing it 😅

Now, the thing is that this can be easily scaled. One option many people use is to hire a creator to post for you every day; it’s usually between $20 and $45 per video.

The second option is to create many pages, use agent-media to create the first hook, and then schedule it to all the other channels. That is fairly easy with Postiz, and the agent can schedule it to all your channels in one go.

Be advised that Meta is one of the strongest platforms for detecting bots. Bots aren’t specifically “automation,” but it’s the account’s behavior. If an account only posts, never engages with anybody, never likes, never comments, never follows, it will be banned or shadowbanned.

So it’s important to have a human do it, or you will get banned eventually.

3️⃣ TikTok slideshows can get millions of views

I will say this: TikTok works better for B2C, but can also work for B2B.

First, create a TikTok account. The problem with TikTok is that it works based on your current location. If you are like me and not living in the US, you need to do a few things:

• You need a VPN; it’s kind of a given, but I suggest finding a mobile proxy using WireGuard instead of a dedicated one from NordVPN or a Hetzner server. Those are all datacenter proxies and are easy to detect. And of course, disable your GPS.

• You need to warm up the account. Usually, when you open a new TikTok account, it will show you some brainrot content because it’s the most viral; your goal is to find content in your niche, like, comment, and follow accounts. Then close TikTok, open it again, and see that you only see this content. Do it multiple times to really be on the same type of content. This isn’t only to warm up the account, but also to show you to the right people once you post.

• Every time before you post, do it again; it’s important we signal to TikTok that we are real people. If not, you can end up in the 0-views jail. If you do end up in that jail, don’t post for a while; it can recover.

With TikTok, you should probably search for your niche beforehand, then copy it; you can also find viral videos and turn them into slideshows.

The slideshows that go viral are never about the product. They are about a person, a conflict, and a reveal.

Nobody cares about your features, they care about the moment.

One AI room redesign app posted “My landlord said I can’t change anything so I showed her what AI thinks it could look like” and it did 234K views.

It works because you picture the landlord’s face before you even swipe.

The formula is [Another person] + [conflict or doubt] → showed them → they changed their mind.

Other formats that work: “X things to get Y” with every slide numbered, a problem many people have on slide 1 and a fix on every other slide, or “information only I know” on slide 1 and the secrets on the rest.

The hook is slide 1 and it’s the only thing 95% of people will read, so this is where you spend your time.

Every hook that works has someone in it (me, my mum, my landlord, my boyfriend, my boss, never “people” or “you can”), a number or a time if you have one, and a tiny story the viewer finishes in their head.

You can create slides easily with ChatGPT Astra (+the text), it’s that good. And schedule the slides through Postiz.

Then once it works, you can schedule it to multiple TikTok accounts.

Let me know if you are going to implement anything here :)
