👋 Hey, I'm Luke Sophinos, I'm a vertical SaaS founder, operator, and investor.

I've spent the last decade building CourseKey.com - the largest vertical SaaS business for trade schools in the United States. 300+ enterprises that train 100K+ students, like Paul Mitchell and Lincoln Tech (NASDAQ: LINC), run their businesses on CourseKey's end-to-end SaaS platform.

I am also an advisor at Atomic.vc where I help with new vertical SaaS ideation and advise businesses within the portfolio.

A few years back I came to the realization that very little was written online about vertical SaaS. As a deep believer in the category, I decided to write a weekly newsletter and daily tweets to what has grown into a community of tens of thousands of vertical SaaS founders, operators, investors, and students.

My goals are twofold:

1) Build an incredible community of vertical SaaS diehards that can avoid the mistakes I, and so many others like me, have made as they build their business.

2) Bring partners forward that can help our community grow faster and build category-leading companies.

If you are one of those partners please don't hesitate to get in touch by emailing [email protected], messaging me directly on Passionfroot, or sending a Twitter DM @lukesophinos

Also -- you can find every newsletter we've published over at newsletter.lukesophinos.com

Thanks for stopping by!
