Hello,
This weekend I received a letter of intent from someone who wants to acquire my side project.
It's not for a huge amount of money (and not sure yet if I will go through with it) but after years of dreaming, lurking (here on IH since 2020) and building nothing, this is an amazing feeling.
What was the turning point for me:
Instead of lurking, I started to interact with people on Twitter and made some friends
I became part of 2 communities which helped in accountability and 'finding your tribe'
I did a No-Code Bootcamp which empowered me (finally I had some skills to build my own ideas).
I'm not here to brag :D I wanted to share this because I hope it can:
Help lurkers become makers
Motivate anyone to go for it, even if you can't code
Give a boost to anyone who is spending every free weekend or night building their project.
Congrats!
How do you feel overall about the offer?
Congrats! How did you get an offer? Did you list it somewhere, or they contacted you randomly?
I listed it on Microacquire.
Congrats! For how long were you building this project and how did the potential acquirer take notice of your project?
I built it in 2 months on the side, so only evenings.
I listed it on Micro Acquire.
That's awesome. Congratulations! - What are your thoughts? Are you taking the offer?
Yes, seriously considering it.
It's a fair offer and I would love to have more room for other projects.
That's so awesome, Katt! - Crossing my fingers everything will go well.
Amazing jorney! Congrats!

Congrats! Cant wait to feel this feeling!
It's amazing! Even if I wouldn't go forward with it, it's a beautiful compliment.
congratulations ! you should write about your journey somewhere preferably a blog.
yes, indeed! On August I have another project to launch but september I want to focus on creating a blog.
Congrast!

What tools/ platforms did you use to actually build a out the MVP/ side project?
Yep.so for idea validation
Landbot.com for chatbot flow
Airtable.com where my data is stored and it's connected to Landbot

Thanks for sharing Katt.
As a non-technical founder, would like to discuss with you on how one can build a product from scratch till i get it to (paying customer stage).
Are you now working with developers by your side or do you think it's still much more easier to build alone, with no-code tools?
Would be good to connect
Thank you :-)
