3 Micro SaaS Ideas around White-Label Products

White-label is right now one of the biggest and often neglected ways of generating revenues. A white-label software is a generic software without any branding that a company can rebrand with its own logo and sell as its own service. Let’s see some of the companies making revenue with ‘white-label’ features.

What is White-Labeling?

White labeling describes the process by which a company removes its branding from a product or service and adds the branding of another entity.

It allows the purchasing company to get into the industry without having the capacity to make the product in the first place. It also saves them a lot of time and resources that they’d otherwise send making the product.

Another advantage of purchasing a white-label product is that the purchasing company can expand their current offerings by incorporating these products into their existing offerings, giving their customers more options. When companies purchase white-label items, they can expand their range of products and offer a more comprehensive experience to their customers.

Why do Companies Create White-Label Products?

  • White-label products help with scaling the satisfaction for your users. Let’s say you have 1000 users paying $50/m and you are seeing a lot of churns. The quickest and easiest way would be to add value to your users by adding something more to what you are currently offering to your subscribers/users. The fastest way to add ‘that additional value’ is by introducing a new feature, new product, new service that’s built on White-label.
  • While you can certainly build your solutions, trying white-label products will help you go up and running much faster with no requirement for a complex setup.
  • Most white-label products are plug and play mode and are easier to try.
  • The white-label option is just another form of B2B. You are converting your B2C SaaS or service into a B2B by adding a new offering under the ‘white-label’ option.

The white-label option is often neglected by most founders/builders while it is actually a high-value revenue-generating option if executed well. White-label market primarily runs on the premise of - ”People who have audience can get the required tech/service in the form of white-label and can add value to their audience super-quick without a lot of hassles”
