Just reached $1000 MRR
Finally hit $1k MRR (almost two months into soft-launching newCo.app)
The revenue connected on IH is total from last 30 days I think. Total overall is around $12k.
The new platform is hopefully soft-launching this weekend

Congrats man! Great job!
Can you please share key actions that lead you to this point?
I'll note some things that I've been doing
Email a list of people who signed up for my previous projects and articles about no-code MVPs.
Ask for payment without even a landing page, just a promise of what I was planning to do.
Build a simple landing page in webflow
Start releasing tutorials, premium and free
Speak to users (a lot)
Build in public
Share the milestones
Ask what people want to see
(now the new platform will be released soon so its ready for scale and lots of fun stuff for members)
👌 Perfect lean startup
How large was the list of people who signed up for your previous projects and articles about no-code MVPs?
How many of them purchased just promises?
The first email I sent (via PH Ship) to around 1k people... This was what I sent https://cl.ly/0p072Z3k3Q1i
The stats:
SENT TO - 1,112
OPENED - 520
CLICKED - 156
15 people paid from this email and got the super early deal.
Do you think this would have been possible without your existing following and reputation? I doubt this same model would work without having spent years building up that network and public trust.
This is in no way an attempt to disparage your achievement - you've done something awesome. I'm just saying that this isn't something easily replicable by just anyone.
Likely not... but I've been building side projects without code for years and building up that audience.
This model is totally repeatable by anyone, just got to use the right niche you carve out!
Also, If I already had content on the site and then went out to sell it to people, that most likely would've worked (may not be as well) because people can actually access the content. Its not them going out on a whim.
Nice! I'm pumped to be a member! You're doing an awesome job.
Thanks a lot - ping me via email/slack with any video suggestions you have :)
Andrey the interviewer 😛
Congrats 🎊
Thankssss
Congrats!! 👉🔥💪🤩🙌
Thanks!!
Congrats @bentossell. Please share the entire story with us.
Maybe one day I'll do an IH interview about it :)
IH says you're making $4.9k/month
IH always shows the total revenue for the past month, I believe. It ends up being higher than the MRR because of lifetime and long term plans sold in the past month.
Yeah as @manasvinik said
(I also mentioned this in the post at the top) - I'm not trying to do fake numbers (I cant as its stripe verified) ha.
Well done Ben! You are the very definition of persistence mate : )
I can't knock the hustle 🙌
haha gotta try until something clicks! this seems to be clicking
Very cool! (+ inspiring).
