Celebrating triple century milestone of my journey as a solo-founder: Launch of a small fund for …

Most of you know me working on a few products around Micro SaaS ecosystem including SaaS, Newsletter, Info products and community.


Here is a quick update and of course it’s a happy update on the progress so far. We have hit a few hundreds this week.


Zero To Founder:

This Info product I created recently after talking to hundreds of people in DMs and in the community. I created an Info product out of my experience and since then I made huge improvements to the content and added a lot of new content.

Yes, this week this crossed 100 sales. Precisely 104 sales with average sale value of $63-$65.

I am planning to launch a small fund with the money from these sales (currently $6K - $7K) and experiment with launching small hackathons/open contests etc.

Happy to hear any ideas on what’s the best way I can use this money back into IndieHacking ecosystem and eventually also help founders by driving sales/traction/traffic? Anyone who can do the heavy lifting by bringing in sponsors (the whole money goes to the winners) and execute this at scale?

But yeah, the point is - This week, this crossed 100 sales.

Stack: Notion for content, Airtable for sharing lists, Gumroad for payments, Calendly for any scheduling.


Micro SaaS HQ:

This is another ecosystem I am building around Micro SaaS builders. It comes with a Newsletter and a closed community for Micro SaaS builders. The newsletter covers various Micro SaaS trends every week, Technical chops, Marketing chops, Costs analysis, Data points, existing players in each niche. As a part of the newsletter, I also cover Micro SaaS news updates as well everyone. We also have a closed community of builders as a part of this ecosystem. We have about 25,000 subscribers for the Newsletter. We are at 95 issues and more in in scheduled pipeline totaling to more than 100 Newsletter Issues.

Stack used: Substack, Convertkit, Gumroad, Circle


FounderBeats Interview series:

This actually took me sometime whether to start this or not considering the huge time it needs to get founders to publish interviews, followup etc. Also for FounderBeats, we crossed 100 awesome interviews on FounderBeats - my Interview series with founders. It wasn’t definitely easy but it is fun.
