Today I just made my first 5$ from Gumroad. 🥳
I know it's almost nothing, but after my failed launch, I consider this as a win :) It really helped me to regain my motivation.
The best part? Well, the product is actually pay-what-you-want. And 9 people already bought it before for free.
I am happy that people even get it for free but making actual sales made me happier :)
Ah, the reason I made it "free" actually the trust. I was sure that other indie makers who can afford and see the benefit will pay. And I wanted to give some headstart to those people who are just starting because I know how hard it is to find premium-grade tools, content, templates when you start from zero.
Anyway, I take this as a good start to 2021 🚀 My first product made 5 upvotes on PH and 5$ revenue :) Now I have some metrics to beat with my next product.
Wish me luck 💪

Looking good.
If I'll ever need some email templates you may get another $5 as I am what you can call a "generous god". (insert meme)
Jk congrats 💪
Ahah :) Well, I don't underestimate 5$, especially when people are willing to pay even tho they can get it for free! Thanks for the good wishes 🔥
You shouldn't def a good sign I was just being "funny"
Congratulations!
Congratulations on the first money. Very cool. Stay focused, don't give up, and it can be much more. Good luck out there! :)
That's a very good start, wish you lots of success for future.
Thanks alot. Likewise 🚀
That's a good start! Congratulations on your first win.
Thanks for the nice wishes 😊
Congratz! Love the positive attitude, we all needed it. Keep pushing!
I started to side-hustle to keep my sanity and lower my stress. And believe it or not, that 5$ gives you a mental relieve. Seeing that other people care to pay your stuff is priceless. 🚀
Congrats! The first sell is the hardest :) now you just have to scale :D
Q: How do you promote your product?
Thanks, I am actually on my third sale now. 🥳 Well, i plan to create some short form content on Twitter to get some exposure but I don't rush.
The first sale was 100% organic or did you promote your gumroad link somewhere?
Before the first sale i just shared over my Twitter and launched over PH, IH and HN. Non of them worked to be honest :) And the first sale is organic.
Exactly what I need. Thanks Emre! 👍
Thanks Damon,
Hearing that from you is extra motivating. 😎 Will be waiting your feedback after you start to use. Ideally with that cool tool called Testimonial :)
Just bought your templates too! Great work :)
Hey, thanks alot. 🥳
Also feel free to reach when you need any help with them. More than happy to assist :)
Congrats! I plan to launch my first product on Gumroad soon, hope to earn something too :)
Thanks for the food wishes. Just go for it :) Even 5$ makes you happier.
Ah, I know that feel. Congratulations!
Thanks for the nice wishes 🥳
Congratulations! I know how that feels. Here's to the first ker-ching of many!
Thanks 😊. It's nothing but the mental relieve it gives is priceless :)
