Hey guys.This week many people joined the newsletter. So I would like to introduce myself in two words.I'm Ilya startup founder from Ukraine πΊπ¦ For four years, I worked as a front-end developer for different companies. When COVID-19 started, my boss fired me, and I started my front-end agency Quanti Coders. After two years of hustling, we reached $15k per month in revenue.Scaling agency became cumbersome, and I delegated most of the work to start another company.After some research, I decided to tackle marketplace. I realized there is no friendly way for bootstrapped founders to sell their micro-startups. So that's how Microns was born.One year later, we helped 30 founders sell their projects with a total amount of $200k in transactions. It is a challenging journey, and Microns isn't profitable yet, but I believe it'll pay off.Okay, let's return to the newsletter.This week I want to experiment with a new format called Growth advice, where I share a marketing channel that helped me somehow grow Microns or another business. Would love to hear your feedback.Besides this, I prepared a renewed article about buying your first side project, which should be interesting for you.
