🚀 How a former salesman co-founded a seven-figure business on Bubble

My name is Jordan Richardson. I'm the founder of #NoCode Advantage, where I share everything I've learned since co-founding Revetize.

Revetize is a software company that was accepted into AngelPad and is now valued at 7-figures (and counting!). I built it completely with no-code.

That nagging 'wantrepreneur' feeling

Just a few years ago I was bouncing around different careers, always dreaming and never really doing. I was a ‘want’repreneur.

I had worked my way up in a solar company by knocking doors and begging homeowners to buy rooftop solar panels. But I DREADED getting out of bed every morning, and my boss knew it, so he called me into his office.

He asked me if I wanted to head up the operations of a new side “Smart Home” company he was thinking about doing.

It was a cool switch up, and I was grateful for it. But I can still remember that nagging feeling deep inside.

Jordan Richardson @NoCodeAdvantage I was a WANTrepreneur until I discovered #NoCode. I learned @Bubble + built a custom software (in 2 months) that went on to be valued at 7 figures & accepted into AngelPad. Here are my top 7 lessons learned: 👇 March 24th 2022 34 Retweets 242 Likes

Discovering no-code and Bubble

I remember getting an email that mentioned a new no-code tool called Bubble, which allows you to build software, like complex, real, custom, scalable software – all without having to write a SINGLE LINE OF CODE!

The very next week, my boss told me about this random software idea he had to help our company with marketing and other local businesses like ours.

I wasn't sure what Bubble could do, but I decided then and there that no matter what, I was gonna learn Bubble and make this startup work.

So, I dove in. We ended up becoming co-founders and business partners at Revetize.

Long story short, within 2 months of learning, breaking stuff, learning some more, testing this, and trying that… I finally had a working product up and running.

The main components of our product are Bubble and Zapier, but we also use services like Plivo, and Mailgun (thinking about moving to Postmark).

We kept selling and iterating on Revetize.

Within a year, we had amassed a customer base that was paying us around $25 grand every single month (about $300,000 ARR).

The company was valued at 7-figures.

We were accepted into the AngelPad tech accelerator program and were off to New York City to learn how to really take our startup to the next level.

We had a real, tangible business! And somehow, with pretty much zero technical background, I wound up as the CTO – without knowing the first thing about code. That’s the phenomenal thing about no-code!
