Celebrating $900 Revenue/25 paid community members after 2 months! Share your small (but still big) win :)

2 months ago we launched our paid community at LearnStash.com

Even though I'm really proud of our now 25 paid members, I almost didn't post this. It felt big, but not big enough.

I thought... "$900 isn't significant... it's not even a nice round figure like $1K."

But then I changed my mind.

I've seen plenty of 4, 5, & 6 figure MRR AMAs — and those are certainly inspiring — but I created this post to celebrate some "small" IndieHacker wins that are still BIG.

25 members and $900 revenue may be small to some that I could compare against, but considering our journey — it's significant. My partner and I made a launch goal of 25 paid members and we DID it!

It's easy to get discouraged comparing your startup or project to someone else's, but that's why I think it's so important to take a look back at your own journey.

For us, it took a lot to get here 👇

-A semi-successful Product Hunt launch
-Failing at affiliate marketing
-Getting a Morning Brew newsletter feature
-Launching a 6-week beta cohort
-Hours upon hours of research

All that, and it still feels we're just getting started :)

I don't know what your journey has been, but I decided to share to encourage YOU to share. What small (but still big) win can you celebrate? Drop a comment — I'd love to celebrate with you 💙
