Strategies for getting API access from one of the world’s biggest tech
businesses for your bootstrapped SaaS:
1. Send multiple emails from multiple email addresses to their first level
support team. Likelihood of success: Very Low
2. Ask all of your customers to request API access to their first level support
team. Likelihood of success: Low
3. Ask well-connected friends to get you an intro to their head of
partnerships. Likelihood of success: High!
After three months and approx. 147 emails exchanged… we did it.
Our podcast hosting SaaS will now show Spotify podcast data in our analytics and
will allow users to submit their podcast to Spotify with a single click
— feeling excited.
