Why don't indie hackers go into partnerships?

I've spent almost 6 months on our side of twitter and I don't see indie hackers going into joint partnerships, where they pass leads around.

(I can count how many I've seen one hand)

For example:

Let's Assume I want to start a company, I get my logo designed by Logology.co

I will need to be active on twitter, I can use Feedhive, tweet hunter, so many of them.

For my content marketing/SEO I will need katlinks.io

I could go on, but You get the point.

Why are they not passing leads? Or bundling services (volume discount)

Not only does it help the customers, it also help you build a brand since it reduces your CAC and helps your brand stability as per you are interconnected with others.

Why is this not so?

    That's a good question, probably there's no single place/authoritative owner who could lead this initiative.

    However, let me know if you'll solve it somehow; I'd be happy to participate with my projects or give heavy discounts/free tiers for community members 🙂

      I think it's a personal initiative.

      Maybe because it ain't common, so people are afraid to take the first step.

      What are you working on, Arminas?

        Fears could be all reduced with authoritative/well-known community member who could manage 🙂

        I've been working with google analytics alerts (statsglitch.com) for years but recently realized I want to figure out the next exciting niche for me. So launched forms backend (herotofu.com) and google serp brand monitoring (serpwall.com)

        How about you?

          That's right on point.

          Interesting projects you are working on.

          Would have to take my time to check them out.

          I've got no interesting tech project except my marketing consultancy 😂

    That's not a bad idea. I'm up to do something if someone wants to partner with katlinks.io
