Take My $25
Hey! For my first IndieHacker post I thought I'd give back to the community and immerse myself a little bit.
While it's not much, I have $25 to spare and would love to try one of your services that's $25 or less.
I'm launching a marketing service that does not yet exist to cryptocurrency ICO's this week.
If you have a product or service that's ~$25 or less, sell me on it and I'll post an update with my experiences using it in 2 weeks.
My company takes the money and turns it into thin air... you will be amazed at how fats you lose it...
We are called Bitconnect, try us out
Lol! That website needs to be taken down.

Bitconnect was a scam for sure, but crypto currency, it's here to stay. Read the Bitcoin whitepaper, study Keynesian economics, then study the Austrian school of economics, and you will realize that Bitcoin is far from Tulip mania.
People are opting out of the old Keynesian system. This will only increase. At the very least many investors will purchase some crypto as a hedge investment.
I agree. Cryptocurrency is an invention on par with the Gutenberg printing press. That invention empowered individuals by spreading knowledge - knowledge that was used to fact the check and take away some of their absolute power.
Crypto similarly empowers individuals to check the monetary policy of the state. The state's absolute power of printing money is taken away from them. That is a powerful concept that is just starting to see its usefulness. It is still early days.
Not to be mean... But i know alot about economics, and im not sure you know what Kensiyan economics is... but yes u are right about "its here to stay" but probably not bitcoin wich is quite primitive

Well put. I would just argue that an investment in a company on the stock market is the same thing actually. It is really just price equilibration. In fact, if you look at the price of gold since the 60s it has pretty much performed as an investment or 'price equilibration' to the stock market.
Stocks just mix in the concept that a company is actually making money, but when taken from a macro level the idea is still the same. You're putting your money somewhere you expect it to hold its value relative to fiat.

Again, well put gent.
I'm on the same page as you here.
How are you currently following up with potential clients, prospects, or partnerships? I imagine it's through email.
Unfortunately, email isn't the best way to present the material, or to keep them accountable. Check out www.recapped.io and upgrade your follow up and proposal process :)
PS FAQ page responsiveness needs work for iPhone.
Yeah, the mobile responsiveness is pretty bad all around :(
Hi Mark,
This looks awesome.
Quick question, are the sales pages native to the recapped.io domain or can they be under my domain?
Will it work if my sites on Wordpress? I love the interface!
Thanks Greg.
Currently yes, the recaps are all stored under recapped.io/recaps/recapidhere.
What's the workflow that you're thinking and it's relation to Wordpress?
How about a dress shirt from advanced fabrics @GregHemmer ?
Always wanted to wear a shirt, but couldn't be bothered taking care of it? Cotton non-iron alternatives feel like aluminum? Let our fabric's technology take care of it, while you invest mental energy elsewhere.
We can give out a few at $25 😉
Hi Julian,
The shirts look great! I like the men’s black one. How much to ship to New Hampshire, USA?

Haha nice experiment Greg! :)
My product / service is for procrastinators and people who want to get more stuff done. It's called Boss as a Service (https://bossasaservice.life) and it does what it says on the tin -- you send us your tasks, and if you don't submit proof that you actually finish them, we follow up, much as a real life boss would. Launched in January, and going well so far! :)
Hi Manasvinik,
I like the concept. Unfortunately I’m a college student working 16 hours a week, 8 hours in class and ~35 hours on my project.
It would be a good tool to avoid procrastination, but I feel at the moment the time spent responding to your emails will be inefficient.
Best of luck!
i don't know if that's genius or totally dumb, but I still love it 😂
Something in the middle, I guess, ha :) But it's a serious tool and it's genuinely helping people.
Hi Greg,
I'd love you to try out my search tool for cloud data, CTX - https://getctx.io
It's not $25, but because I like your style, if you sign up then I'll give you a free lifetime Team account in return for some public feedback :-)
Just sign up for a trial and then drop me a note at rg@getctx.io with your account details and I'll promote it to a paid account.
Cheers
Rory Gibson
Hi Rory,
I love it. Sorry for the late response. Extremely busy week with sales and outreach. I’ll be in touch tomorrow.
I would flip the question and ask, which problem of yours would you pay 25 dollars to have it solved by someone else..
Note: don't filter the problems even if you think you would pay a lot more for it, and don't filter even if you think nobody would do it for 25 dollars...
Hi Eff, my apologies for the late reply and happy to share some thoughts.
I’m a busy college student with class 8 hours a week, internship 16 hours and ~30 hours into my business. I wish there was a tool I could use as a personal time clock to keep track of what I’m spending my time on.
Outreach and sales are important, a huge focus and very time consuming at launch. - I wish there was a demand generation service to help indie hackers make their first 10 sales.
I hope to go full time with my Business after graduation this May, but it’d be great if their was a service I could tell to go take my resume and apply to certain types of jobs for me online.
I wish there was a solution that tracked all of your web plugin/marketing data on one dashboard.
Services to improve/optimize sales process.
Access to a community of seasoned, knowledgeable and not worthy business advisors.
AI sales prospecting and outreach.
Just a few ideas :)
Thanks for the reply man, these are some cool ideas...
You input terms on who your target market is, the ai scrapes email addresses and sends cold emails.
A forum of people who want an equity stake to advise your business or connect you with industry leaders.
Analytics that show your marketing performance and give an overall grade. “Based on my analytics my businesses marketing campaign is performing at a 3/5. Okay what can we improve? Well we’re no converting on inbound traffic well, but our ad’d CTR is great. Maybe we need to run a/b tests on the landing page.”
Thats sounds like a big value addition, are you sure there arent solutions to this already. Cause technically its not imposssible...
Whoops that was to 4^
personally, as awesome as this sounds, I wont recommend going this way. Focus on very few jobs and prepare yourself for them. That way you would have a lot more data about yourself than apply randomly at a lot of places...
The solution to 1 is simple use toggle...
Lol! Great experiment! I have just released my small side project and it already has some sells. It called Snail and you can find it here https://picpipe.io/snail
It is a small tool to resize images by... renaming it. It will resize your image automatically to 100px width if you just add 100px to the filename.
Here is the short video demo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoR3aYArUic&t=2s
Hi Hannu,
Very cool project. Unfortunately I don’t have much of a need for an image resized at the moment. I think this is much more useful for someone who has coded their website themselves, but I can resize my images on Wordpress.
Also my site is already complete, so I won’t be resizing many images at the moment anyway.
Anyways, I’ll be sure to keep it in mind for the future!
Cool! Only thing that left me confused was that you didn't tell me what operating system the program works on the front page. You might want to add Mac to the title text or somewhere clearly visible.
yeah, I'm more and more convinced that you are right. It work on Mac - you can see on demo video, but I should write it in the description as well.
Do you have a website? If yes, I have a tool for you that you can buy for $19.
My recently launched side project www.saleztalk.com might be useful. Do check it out.
Hello! Mine is $29, and is a remote job listing website in spanish. The first of its kind for the Latin American market. Are you interested in hiring remote workers in this region?
My product isn't 100% ready but I think we could work together
Great, shoot me an email @ hemmermanagement@gmail.com
