Does anyone know a great place to find good discounts on new services, apps, and products for new companies that are just forming and need to get everything setup? Things like 3 free months or 25% off or no fees for a year…

There is Stripe Atlas, Founder Card, eComFuel has exclusive discounts, and more… But are there more places to find BIG discounts on things?

Answering for SaaS…
AppSumo for lifetime discounts.

Otherwise — if you have a targeted need, you can post about it on LinkedIn or Twitter, or even here.

Startup founders for new SaaS companies will work to solve your problem for free in exchange for frequent feedback if your needs and their ideas align. You’d be considered a “design partner.”

This is generally how this works, speaking from the other side of the table.

@Seth Kravitz I’ve found sometimes just reaching out and explaining the situation can get you a few months free or discounted.

Some people feel awkward asking for the discount, but every business is looking to cut costs wherever possible and you can always haggle
