Hey everyone!
This week was super productive and challenging. We've got a bunch of new premium members, discussed what to focus on next, and attracted a few awesome micro-startups.
Today I want to share our growth stats and my vision for our micro-marketplace.
Also, I will introduce a new section that will help founders find a partner for their existing and following projects.
We are developing, and the journey will be exciting. Fasten seat belts π

This week was fruitful. We've got eight new premium members. I'm so happy with this, so I started dancing one day π
People resonate with our vibes and actively participate in the company life. They help me decide what to focus on next and do the work I love so much.
You motivate me to get up each morning, dream and do great stuff. Every day I thrive on helping at least one person. This is what I feel. Thank you.
Yesterday I accidentally started a hot discussion. It was just a simple tweet that someone submitted a prominent startup to us.
Earlier this week, we've got a startup with $110,000 in revenue and $695,000 in asking price. I'm going to refuse because Microns is only for micro-startups. Sorry!

A few of my followers said to post this startup. Someone disagreed with them. And the discussion started. I participated and answered all of the comments.
What I liked was how Ian and a few folks replied. This tweet perfectly aligns with my vision for the future of our company.
@ilyanovohatskyi@FalakDigital@balu14012001 Exactly this. I donβt want to filter out the big deals. I like to buy small projects with potential, turn them into something and then maybe sell on MA for big money (although I prefer private deals!)

Microns is for people who like to buy small startups with potential and turn them into something valuable.
My main goal is not to compete with startup acquisition marketplaces but build an ecosystem with a few projects, including Microns, to help small founders and entrepreneurs build, promote, and exit their startups.

By ecosystem, I mean a set of startups that will serve needs for small remote online businesses. They will help founders start a company with a partner, promote it, monetize, and successfully exit.
