Show IH your product and find out why others won't buy

Let's do a little exercise.

First, let's comment on other indie hacker products:
I will buy this because...
I won't buy this because...

Then, comment your product. Maybe describe it a little bit and find why/why won't people will pay for your work.

I've added a few as examples.

  1. 1

    Want to charge for access to content instead of using ads to monetize? Want to charge less than $1 for something online, but the CC fees are too much?
    https://www.centipenny.com is a micropayment processor that makes selling and purchasing very easy. With CentiPenny you can charge as little as $0.0001 up to ????

    We work as a content paywall, fast checkout for digital purchases, or in-game/in-app purchases.

    As little as 1 line of code integration. 1-click/no-click purchasing.

    If you have ever been stressed communicating with your remote team, it is probably because you have not found the right communication tool for your team.
    Spark a conversation🎙 with one click!

    typeyourname.com - Type your name. Or write anything really nice and let it stay on the internet forever.

    1. 1

      I won't buy this because it is a kind of vanity posting and that just isn't my cup of tea. I am not your audience demographic though (I'm old :))))) ).

      That being said, I would be interested in talking about how we could work together if you are looking to add different levels/prices of content. My company is a micropayment processor.

    2. 1

      I will buy this because I like this creative concept and the new idea behind it. It is also fun and memorable to do something like this on internet.

      I won't buy this because (damn! help me out on this one, can't think)

  4. 1

    join.coulf.com - resources, guidance and support for indie founders through community

    1. 1

      I would buy this because it looks like an interesting resource for founders.

      I won't buy this because I can't see what is behind the curtain. You would do better buy adding a 1-week or 1-month free trial or a $1-2 first month. Maybe restrict the ability to post anything in the community if it is free, but let people lurk a bit, try the other tools, etc.

    2. 1

      I will buy this because I'd like to develop relationships or maybe chat for some time with fellow makers. Getting the resources and guidance is also worth it for the price point I believe.

      I won't buy this because it is not displaying the community properly. That's what I pay for but I don't really see meetups, more people etc., there needs to be more experts and more testimonials on the site to convince me.

    strikingdigital.com - lead geneation and complete sales automation solution

    1. 1

      Looks interesting, I added it to my list of sites to try for my business.

    2. 1

      I will buy this because it will help me find leads and customers for my business, which is what I need especially when starting.

      I won't buy this because I don't trust the product, there aren't any testimonials or case studies. Plus you have fake notification proofs?? I don't like the name either, what does it have to do with leads?
