We've just finished our 2nd month with PurpleAds and I wanted to share some numbers with the community.
As a reminder, we launched PurpleAds on Feb 6th, 2020 and IT IS STILL an MVP, I hope these stats will give you guys motivation to launch your products NOW.
You might find bugs, broken things, angry customers, but remember: "If your product is polished, looks great, and you're happy with the end result - you've lost your timing".
This is crazy - we've crossed $10,000 in revenue during March only (50% goes to publishers)
We have more then doubled the number of active publishers and advertisers.
Today (April 1st), we're going to pay ~$5,000 in total to our valuable publishers.
Crossed 3,000,000 impressions in total.
Willing to give PurpleAds a try?
I wanted to offer $15 in credits, when you spend $15.

Take care, stay strong.
Hey Yosi, this is awesom. How long did this take from idea to mvc to first paid user ? Also how did you go about building the network of publishers ?
We have launched our landing page on August 2019 just to see if we can collect more than 100 signs up - we got 1500. So we have decided to start developing the MVP on November and launched on February (it took us some time since we have another product we need to maintain :-)).
So to get our first publishers/advertisers, I sent out an email to all of our ProveSource customers, but I do a lot of sales nowadays, to bring more demand and supply.
Hey @yosidahan, congrats on a great kickoff!
Do you by any chance have an example/screenshot of how your landing page looked like to share?
I'm looking to create a landing page to test the market and would really like to see an example of one that was successful.
From what I understand, your traffic to the PurpleAds landing page was mostly people already using ProveSource?

Thank you 🙏
Nice, great results! What kind of audience can be reached with PurpleAds? I feel like that info's missing from your website.
Yeah, our website still lacks some info, but very briefly, our targeting options are not the best, you can target people based on website category, location and device type.
Congrats! Curious, how did you acquire your first publishers and advertisers? Its usually a chicken & egg.
Well, we have a huge user-base thanks to our other product, ProveSource.
Most of our first publishers/advertisers cam through it.
