Up to $9.2k in total sales now

Pretty happy that today Swipe is up to 9.2k sales. I had a few come in yesterday, nothing today though.

To get the ball rolling, I added a blog to the site, and wrote my first post: https://www.swipe.page/p/from-an-airtable-to-10k-in-side-income

I also started an ebook, which is now almost finished. It will be a version of my IH post, but with more details, examples - expanded version. I will sell this on Gumroad and promote it on PH once again... Question is: will it do well this time? Remains to be seen.

Oh, I am giving away 5 free copies of the extended ebook to my subscribers, so if you want one, just enter your email and you qualify ;)

Cheers!

    Congrats Gene. I am following you on Twitter and I'm grateful that you're sharing your journey with details.
    I like that you even include the tools you're using. For example mentioning ConvertKit for your new landing page two days ago.

    All the best and keep up the great spirit.

      Thank you, Oras! Glad you find my updates worthy of your precious attention ! I hope to not disappoint:) let’s connect in Twitter Dm, that’s where the fun is - the secret to this whole networking thing.

    Congrats on your success, Gene. I've been really inspired by your story and posts on Indie Hackers. I'm also building an Airtable product so I smiled when I saw you were originally inspired to create Swipe after reading about Scrapbook (or one of your inspirations anyway. I can't remember exactly) as that's what inspired me to start my product.

    I'm hoping to make my product a monthly subscription if it goes well and take payment through Thrivecart at first (because of the instant payment), then possibly switch to Gumroad. Look forward to following your progress. Just signed up to your newsletter. Hopefully I can follow in your footsteps.

      Wow Tobe! Your words mean more to me than anything I can make or earn with my products. I'm serious. People who say they have been inspired to do something are coming out of the woodwork and the feeling of having a tiny little impact on someone's life is worth all the effort!

      Monthly subscriptions are tricky for info products unless they are a course. But, don't let my word in that stop you from trying! Keep me updated on what you are working on, I'd love to follow and see how it goes!

      Cheers!
