What happens when the mistake of a missed photo shoot turns into one of the most beloved CRMs for creative entrepreneurs? In this episode, I sat down with Dubsado co-founder and CEO Becca Berg to talk through building a SaaS company from scratch with her husband Jake, scaling to 30,000+ users, and why staying self-funded has shaped every decision they’ve made over the last decade.

We talked about the real beginnings of Dubsado, the growing pains behind CRM development, why certain features take time, and what’s actually coming inside Dubsado 3.0. Becca also opened up about one of the hardest moments in Dubsado history and how trusting her gut changed the way she leads the company today.

If you’ve ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of the CRM so many creatives rely on every day, this episode is for you.
