Hi. I have a problem that even running a SaaS business, I tailor my product for each client in some way. Now the number of clients is < 10.
Before I started my business, I thought there would be three pricing plans at most in most SaaS, and you could put every client into one of plans. However, since I started my business, I realized that it is impossible because even I didn't understand my business, I can't make standardized plans. Now every customer has slightly different product. I keep increasing the pricing for new contracts (keep the same for the existing clients for now), and adding a feature that was requested from a customer. For example,

Now every customer has slightly different product. I keep increasing the pricing for new contracts (keep the same for the existing clients for now), and adding a feature that was requested from a customer. For example,
- one customer asked to change a design for a reason I understand well, but another client wanted to keep using the old design
- one customer requested a new feature. I made it. I haven't let the feature available to other clients yet. This may be a chance to increase pricing but if I do not standardize, the situation does not change. It is just one of the customized plan go into another customized pplan.).
- At first, my product had a usage limit X, but I found X was too high for the cost, so I decreased the limit to Y (< X) for new clients. Also, increased the price.
