November 19, 2021 Sold TweetSponsor

Not long after launching the TweetSponsor MVP at the end of September I realized that the 'Product - Founder Fit' wasn't really there. I liked the idea - and I think it has great potential - but I didn't have the motivation to build the full platform and to market it.

So I decided to see if I could sell it. I put up a couple of listings with no expectations just as an experiment. There were 3/4 inquiries over a couple of weeks, and I eventually accepted a deal with the most promising of them.

The amount was fairly small ($500) and probably not worth the time for most people. Some might say I could've sold it for more, but for me that wasn't really the point.

Instead of killing the project and letting it rot, I've had a tiny 'exit'. I've learned about listing projects for sale, handling questions and inquiries, handing over, and ultimately selling a (tiny) business.

As a bonus I have an extra $500 to put towards other projects!

As part of my 1 project per month challenge, I came up with the idea of TweetSponsor.

But I only had a few days left of the month - so I narrowed down the scope to as minimal as possible. Which meant a landing page, an airtable form for interested users to list their Twitter profiles, and a gumroad product selling access to the airtable data.

This was the fastest I've ever gone from nothing to an MVP. And it has really shown me what the M in MVP really means.
