Went from idea to $1000+ in revenue in less than a week selling a list of potential marketing cofounders

2 weeks ago, I posted this on X:

Within an hour, I got 5 people with impressive marketing backgrounds saying that they would love to be added to a list like this.

Then I got comments like this from developers:

I decided to gather emails from both devs and marketing people on a Youform form (a form builder SaaS that I'm cofounder of - good way of dogfooding your own product).

After I had around 20 awesome marketers on the list, I sent a payment link to all the developers that were interested, and lo and behold a few of them immediately payed.

I then bought the domain WantACofounder.com and put together more of a landing page (but still hosted on Youform).

There are currently 27 marketing cofounders on the list.

Many people have told me that they already have calls scheduled to meet their new potential cofounder, which is super cool. I'm convinced that at least 1 multi-million dollar company will come from this list.

If you're a developer and want the list, you can get it here: WantACofounder.com

(also if you're a marketing person and want to be added to the list, you can apply to be added via the same link)

    Thats great David! Crazy how a tweet can be so powerful foir validanting an idea, and how fast you could organize it.

    Have you ever thought about doing the other way around too? Having a list of technical founders to sell to marketing founders? Could be a nice test, would love to talk more about it. Cheers!
