Made over $1000 in sales!

In December 2019 I decided to sell the boilerplate that I made. I was using it myself whenever I started new projects. I wasn't really sure if anyone would pay for it, but I decided to make a marketing site and tried it out. Super excited that I've made a little over $1000 now, selling different versions of this boilerplate!

It's not a lot of money, given that it took me almost half a year to get to this point, but it for sure is better than nothing! And it inspires me to keep going.

It's crazy that most of my projects never made me any money at all, even though it took way more time to build. This podcast inspired me to try this out: https://rework.fm/sell-your-by-products/.

I think I will write a longer, personal post about this later. Meanwhile, you follow can my progress toward building something better: https://serverless.page/.
