Microns - The big launch: Microns v2
Hey guys. I’m so excited about this day. I planned to launch a platform ten days before, but an unexpected event happened. Wized updated their library to a major version and forced us to migrate. This broke half of our functionality, so we spent the whole week fixing and testing everything. At that time, my dev (Max) and I were exhausted but happy when we released the app. People started signing up and using the platform. We received the first feedback, which gave us more power to move forward. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback and reported bugs. Your feedback helps us fix all the issues and improve the platform. I appreciate all your support. Together, we can make this marketplace successful for all the founders around the globe. 👋 WelcomeWelcome to the 41 new people joining this week. Let me know what you think of your first issue. Replying helps Google realize it’s not a spam. Prefer Twitter? Drop me a DM here. Now let’s crack on with the newsletter ☕️ 🎉 Recently sold startupWe recently sold an AI Chrome extension called Reachly. It automates your email writing using AI. At the time of the exit, Reachly had 11 users (1 on a paid plan) and $155 in ARR. It was built using Express, React, and Framer. The project was sold for $2,200 (14.19x multiplier). The founder also provided some help with growth strategy. Chrome extensions have a great distribution channel (browser) which could help them grow super fast like mobile apps but they are also a little bit complicated in terms of maintenance and development than a regular web app. If you have a profitable startup, feel free to submit it, and we'll find you a buyer. 💥 The big launchIt’s time. I’m so pumped. Microns became much better. Straightforward design, better communication system, and complete control under your listings. Everything aligned with our audience ❤️ Starting today and one week after, all new Premium members will get a gift from me - one free transfer service request during 2024. Our early customers will keep the old pricing till cancelation. It's better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times. So, I’m excited to invite all of you to join our upgraded platform today. 📰 Looking for new ownersCompetitor SaaS Analysis Tool
