Hello everyone,
I’m a small business owner and for the past 5 years I’ve been working in road services for container logistics. We transport containers from ports in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany to clients—and vice versa.
For a long time, I managed everything using spreadsheets and scattered folders on my computer. It worked, but it often became chaotic and I lost a lot of time searching for information. It just wasn’t an efficient or enjoyable way to run things.
So I decided to build a simple dashboard to manage orders more easily. Over time, that evolved module by module into a full SaaS application.
I called it Boxflow. Why Boxflow? We do sea-container logistics - a box. combined with getting goods from A to B - Flow.
Right now, the platform includes:
- Authentication
- Multi-tenancy and multi-user support
- File uploads
- Order management
- Pricing calculator
- And more
Everything has been tested for multi-tenancy and is working really well. I’ve also had a senior software engineer review the system, and the feedback has been very positive.
Now I’d like to take the next step: getting other companies to test it. I’m looking for feedback on improving the modules, identifying missing features, and refining the overall experience before going to market.
My main questions:
- How can I attract companies willing to test the platform?
- What are good strategies to grow this into a real business?
- How do I approach pricing for a SaaS like this?
Any advice, feedback, or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance 🙏
