The Ultimate Solopreneur Tech Stack: Minimum Cost, Maximum ROI
Avoiding the SaaS Subscription Trap
One of the easiest mistakes new founders make is signing up for ten different $49/month SaaS tools before landing their first customer.
The Lean $80/Month Stack
- Domain & Hosting: WordPress + LiteSpeed ($5/mo)
- AI Core: Claude Pro or ChatGPT Plus ($20/mo)
- Email Marketing: ConvertKit or Beehiiv (Free tier up to 2,500 subscribers)
- Workspace & CRM: Notion (Free personal plan)
- Payments & Delivery: Lemon Squeezy (Pay per transaction)
Focus on generating revenue first, then reinvest profit into specialized enterprise tools only when manual capacity runs out.
