About

President of a 200+ person software company helping people make money online. I’ve seen the dark side—fake gurus, overpriced courses, and overhyped side hustles. My background: early tech startup employee (raised $100M+, unicorn, IPO), investment banker ($100M avg deal size), consultant (multiple exits), and now president of a top company in the space. I’m building a community-powered database of side hustles—filterable by time, money, skills, ROI, and real influencer reviews. My mission is to help people find what they’re here for—and make a living doing it. My vision is to create a world where people don’t just survive doing what they “can” do—they thrive doing what they were born to do. Would love to connect and get feedback and possibly some beta users!

How do you get rid of unwanted business?

When I interviewed one founder, he mentioned a few sites where you can sell your business, such as:

  • Acquire

  • BizBuySell

  • Flippa

  • GetAcquired

  • Reddit (yeah, this one too)

Is Experience as a Founder good to get a corporate job?

After spending the last few years building an AI startup within a corporate setup navigating ambiguity, owning end-to-end execution, wearing multiple hats I m now stepping into the job market.

But here s the catch:
When you apply as a founder, even within a structured organization, it often raises eyebrows more than interest. Was it just a title? Was it too niche? Was it too independent to translate into team-based environments?

Which is more important: making a great product or doing effective marketing?

Hello, Product Hunt!
I vote for "marketing is more important!"
Recently, building has become really easy with the help of AI agents and tools like Cursor(thx Ai). I think the time and money needed to create a good product have significantly decreased thanks to various SaaS programs.
However, I still don t have any references to introduce to you ( ). I feel like I ve neglected marketing, which is more important than making the product. (Please tell me this is the real reason...) Especially for indie makers like me, marketing is the hardest part (I wish someone could do it for me! ).
Making a good product and promoting it are both important, and it s a pointless debate.
Still, making vs. marketing? What do you all think?
And if there are any cost-free ways for indie marketers or beginner marketers to try out, could you let me know?
