He gave no figures for UseArtemis itself.

UseArtemis's 3 tactics

UseArtemis · B2B · LinkedIn lead scraping tool

Skip settings and password pages, launch, and run Google or Meta ads on day one

Founder's standard first step across his apps; no spend or results given

Every product starts with ads on Google or Meta depending on the product (sometimes one works better, sometimes the other), as the fastest way to validate and test the market. Launch as soon as possible with the minimal product, skipping boring SaaS parts like password reset and settings pages; finish the product once customers arrive daily.

Once ads work, add auto-written blog posts to win Google traffic

Founder says SEO compounds into near-free traffic; no numbers

As soon as ads show traction, moves to SEO. Uses Ahrefs for SEO analysis and AI article tools that write and auto-post articles to the blog: first SEOpital, now Outrank.so. Also values SEO traffic if he ever sells a tool.
