François shares the full founder journey, from an early failed business to growing Linkody over 13 years, reaching a few hundred paid customers, and relying entirely on organic traffic rather than paid ads. They also get into pricing experiments, competition from major SEO brands, product expansion, AI, work-life balance, and the \"fake truths\" many founders believe about success. If you want an honest look at building SaaS in the SEO world, this conversation is packed with lessons, surprises, and hard-earned perspective.
