Nathan Barry of Kit
Nathan’s journey to building a multimillion-dollar SaaS business started with freelance web design, selling iPhone apps, and authoring books on design. In 2014, he committed to focusing full-time on Kit—then earning just $1,000 a month—and grew it to over $42M in annual recurring revenue with $4M in annual profit. And he did this in less than 10 years.
