Processed $100,000 in payouts
by Pippin WilliamsonAfter launching our Payouts Service in November, 2019, we were processing $3,000-$6,000 per month in payouts. Now, a few months later we are processing $25,000+ each month.
We passed $100,000 in total processing volume earlier this week and are anticipating we'll exceed $30,000 in payouts for May with $20,690.04 already processed since May 1.
Nearly 500 websites have signed up to use the service and over 1,500 recipients have registered to be paid through it.

Congrats @pippin! I thought that was a genius idea to start that service.
I’m curious how you manage so many different products. I have about 5 right now—2 unannounced. So I’m always curious about other founders and their thoughts on how to not lose their mind trying to keep track and grow all their various projects (whether separate or under a corporate umbrella).

We have a great team at Sandhills Development. We're 26 strong now and have 2-5 people working on each project, along with several people that touch aspects of all the projects. Each project has a designated lead that is responsible for keeping the project moving.
That being said, though, we do definitely feel the strain of having many different projects. I'm very much a builder and I love to build new things. That can be a strength at times but it also really gets in the way when I find myself wanting to build something new instead of maintaining what we have. My team really helps balance that for me.

Yup, a strong team is important. I find that in a builder too. And it’s really hard when you don’t have a team outside of one project to help.
Always inspiring to see others who are making it work.
