About
We're not developers. We're founders who spent six years each running growth at B2B startups. We watched our software bills climb from $50/month to $800/month while the tools didn't get better - just more expensive.
Two years ago, our SaaS stack cost $847/month. Analytics, CRM, scheduling, email, social, support, automation - seven subscriptions, seven logins, seven monthly charges.
We found the open source alternatives. They were better than the paid tools. But the setup guides assumed we were developers. We aren't.
So we figured it out the hard way. Docker, docker-compose, environment variables, reverse proxies, SSL. We made every mistake. We broke things. We learned.
Then we wrote the guides we wished we'd had. Plain English. Real code. Honest about what's easy and what's a pain. And we opened them up, because doing this alone is miserable.
That's Growth Dudes. No course. No upsell. Just the guides, the tools, and a community of founders building the same thing.
