Suppose you build a custom app for your own print shop, restaurant, or consultancy. It solves a real problem beautifully, and another business in the same niche asks for access. Suddenly you have to think about onboarding, support, permissions, billing, and different workflows.

At what point would you turn an internal tool into a SaaS? What would you validate before taking money from the first external customer?
