About the MicroConf Connect Community

MicroConf Connect is an application-only membership community with over 5,000 entrepreneurs who are building, launching, and growing their B2B SaaS businesses. We have members from around the world huddling together on projects across nearly every industry, with entrepreneurs from every stage of their founder journey.

At one end, we have members who have an idea for a side hustle they're looking to build; at the other, we have CEOs of multi-million dollar SaaS companies, with members running the gamut of everything in between.

What you will not find inside of MicroConf Connect are people looking to sell you their services. With a strict "no-pitch" policy in place, we care deeply about creating a space where members can feel free to ask questions and get thoughtful responses without worrying that they are getting a hard pitch.

House Rules

MicroConf Connect has a few non-negotiable rules to keep the space safe and valuable for everyone. Break them, and you could be removed without a warning or refund.

Rule #1: Follow Our Code of Conduct
This one is zero tolerance. Violate it, and you're out. Just be decent and respectful, and you'll be fine.

Rule #2: No Pitches, No Sales
Connect isn't for self-promotion, with the exception of posting in #amplify. Don't use posts or DMs for sales or customer acquisition. Usually, it's a three-strike policy unless you’re being egregious.

Rule #3: Stick to Channel Topics
Each channel has its own focus. Keep conversations on-topic and minimize cross-talk. Use threads. Unsure where to post? Drop a note in #-tomanychannels for guidance. Do your best - we’ll let you know if there is an issue.

  • Unfortunately, MicroConf is specifically tailored for Founders, Owners, and early employees of B2B SaaS companies, as well as those looking to launch their own B2B SaaS venture. Our community focuses on nurturing and growing these particular segments, so we typically do not accept Service Providers, Consultants, financial instrument-related businesses, or those whose primary goal is client acquisition through our community.

  • You can request a refund within your first 30 days. No refunds after that, but you can cancel anytime to stop future renewals (and keep access until your Membership expires). Your feedback is important to us, so let us know how we can improve and we will do our best to make sure you get the value you need from Connect.

  • When you apply for MicroConf Connect, either at the Basic or Gold level, you'll need to make a payment.

If you're not approved, you'll get an instant refund.
