    Mobile beer app - strategy for reviving an app

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    It's typical with marketplace. I recently found this interesting articles made by Andressen Horowitz fund (so they probably know a thing or two about it): Marketplace 100 - Andreessen Horowitz I thought about it and actually it almost made it to the first version of the app, but worried a bit...

    Mobile beer app - strategy for reviving an app

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    This app by definition is a marketplace type of app. To have leverage that way I need to gather users first which will download app for the information about taps that bars ought to deliver. That's the challenge each marketplace app face unfortunately.

    Mobile beer app - strategy for reviving an app

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Three years ago I made a craft beer app (on Android) that was showing what was on specific taps in bars near you. Back then there was nothing like it and craft beers just exploded in Poland. First iteration of it was really basic - it was literally white text on dark background. Despite this...

    Programmer just quit his job - don't want any new job

    I'm on the idea phase right now, but I can have a deal for you - my friend is close to release his moba/battle royal game. Let's talk privately. I been for 7 years now, but now I see that your wage is also based on how much you ask. Programmers has this problem of asking for more. My friend...

    Programmer just quit his job - don't want any new job

    Wow, thanks! For sure I didn't expect that :blush: Yes, indeed I can backtrack to t-shirts. My brother has 4 cats so I guess that might be might next niche (or cars - then I'm the market). Same with apps. Those two will keep me busy for sure. Lots of nuggets in one post. Gonna use them!

    Selling unprofitable business

    I've just quit my job and looking for new opportunities - look at this thread of mine. I will still code, but this time on my terms :) And maybe I will get back to e-commerce too! And I sold it for $2k, but Escrow and Exchange took it's commisions, but after them plus historical finances...

    Selling unprofitable business

    Hi guys, quick update: I sold my store on Shopify's Exchance because it was the safest (Escrow) and I've completed it on September 2019 - then I gathered all the historic data and turned out I profited a bit. Around $3k after 3 years of work. I'm happy that I broke even - most businesses just...

    Programmer just quit his job - don't want any new job

    At the beginning of this month I quit my job. I'm a full stack developer (JavaScript), but after over 2 years I just couldn't work for the person I did. When I've done it I was like 20kg burden was off me. Just like that. I'm not worried about money now because I'm doing one off project for my...

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    Hmm, but to have more than one paying customer you have to be able to give them access - and to give them access you need money (if going with that scenario). Looks a bit like a loop unless they pay upfront and give you a month so you can redesign system. Maybe there is yet another quick and...

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    Yes, I don't think either you need more than one database now. Of course, if you wanted to stick to it you can make you backend create new database, but then you would need another database to store users credentials... Take one evening to read about data structuring in databases. You will have...

    SaaS product or development agency? That's the thing.

    SAAS / APPS 
    I switched because I couldn't find an idea to do with my skills and having many small customers seems safer to me than having few big clients.

    SaaS product or development agency? That's the thing.

    SAAS / APPS 
    I have quite similar situation. I'm a full stack developer, but I feel trapped and tried with eCommerce (twice), but still no success and no idea what to do next. In your case, You already found an idea that you can do by yourself so maybe just focus on that. There's nothing that can stop you...

    Selling unprofitable business

    Okay, I think I didn't took one factor under the scope. This is how traffic sources spread within that 6m impressions. My market is United States (never had any order from China despite having orders from all over the world, but I don't want to sit with my fingers crossed). So from 6m it goes...

    Selling unprofitable business

    Oh yeah, I got to the point here I made lookalike audiences from lookalike audiences. I spent $30k after all :) Well, it's not as much influencer as that the framework hat he builds is widely used (I use it in my projects also) and documentation is really heavily used by the users. So my...

    Selling unprofitable business

    That's true. Maybe after 3 years of striving I got burned out. Today I found that Patreon developer that normally had all (4) slots for $2k sold out had one free to take so I took it because documentation for his framework hits 6 million impressions (500k unique) per month. So it's easy to...

    Selling unprofitable business

    I was thinking about other sites. They seem to be the biggest marketplace, but if you can recommend other it will be highly appreciated :) And yeah - flippa really sucks. Time you have to wait for response is outrageous.

    Selling unprofitable business

    Since one of the top programming languages is C++ I wanted to make a twist on that name so initially it was T++, but my designer made it Tee++ which looked better to me, but still I had to use wording for url and teeplusplus.com was unavailable.

    Selling unprofitable business

    At a first glance - yes. I think the only tangible value there is are: - email list (existing customers) - facebook ads data (so you know exactly who buys it) I think it's the biggest store of it's kind out there. Store is selling mostly tshirts, but also sold some mugs and even canvases. Oh...
