My aim is beyond the marketplace building; it's a thriving community

Jan 18, 2024

Hi, my dear subscribers.

This week, I created a new section in my newsletter called “Community support”. The main idea of this section is to trade help and other requests within our community. I started with two opportunities, but if you have something, let me know, and I’ll include it in the next newsletter issue.

My main goal isn’t just building the marketplace where you can buy and sell small projects, but it’s far behind it. I want to create a thriving community of entrepreneurs and investors where you can buy, hire, collaborate, and improve. The marketplace part is just the start of this movement. In the future, we’ll have verified professionals to help you grow your project to get higher ROI.

This week, I already started testing Micron's second version. My dev is working on fixes before the release. The new platform will allow us to give you more power over your accounts and manage relationships effectively. It’ll help to improve our current flow and create a better sense of community. I truly believe in this. The release is planned for February if everything goes as planned.

Last but not least, my agency is slowly recovering, and we found one new customer yesterday for full-stack development of a custom e-commerce platform with React, Next.js, and WordPress. I hope it will be an excellent and long-term cooperation.
