A SaaS that pulls high-intent LinkedIn leads and automates the outreach — 11M impressions from telling stories on Reddit, $30K MRR in 6 months.
Reddit isn't a channel for scale, it's a channel for breaking the ice: every demo call opens with “oh, you're the Reddit guy” — the more they've seen you, the easier the close.
Fewer bars = easier, cheaper, or faster for an AI-assisted solo builder. Editorial judgments based on the case details.
[Video] Roman is a French former mechanical engineer who shifted into affiliate marketing before COVID, then freelancing. His first SaaS, Coco AI, built in 2023, reached $50K MRR on the strength of outreach and was then sold to a US venture firm. Reviewing what worked, he concluded outreach-driven acquisition was the deciding factor — so he built Goji Berry AI, an “intent-based outreach” SaaS: every day it pulls high-intent leads off LinkedIn (people who liked a specific post, engaged with a competitor, just raised funding, or just started hiring) and sends AI-personalized connection messages directly from the platform, with acceptance and reply rates far above industry averages. The flagship plan is $99/mo, and it went from zero to roughly $24K-30K MRR in 4 months.
Reddit did nearly the whole job. Roman pulled 11 million impressions and more than 40,000 visitors out of it, and those visitors produced the first 100 customers.

Data credibility: Founder Roman showed a dashboard of roughly $24K MRR on Starter Story and stated it was around $30K; ⚠️ he claims his previous product Coco AI reached $50K MRR before being sold, and that figure is not independently audited. All revenue figures are founder-reported or estimated by the video creator — unaudited.
There are three subscription tiers and almost everyone sits on the $99-a-month plan, which buys unlimited high-intent leads plus outreach sent from inside the platform. Revenue went from zero to the roughly $24K showing on the dashboard, which Roman rounds up to $30K, in four months.
Two loops turn here. The first is content supply.
The quiet stretch in this model is structural rather than accidental, because the playbook builds it in. Every fresh account sits through 7 to 14 days of commenting and upvoting with no marketing and no traffic before it is allowed to post.
