Hey, Product Hunters! I’m really excited to share Microns with you. It's my first launch here, so don't be afraid to roast. It all started when I wanted to learn how to build products and leave a 9-5 job. When COVID started, I was fired from my job. Didn't even start building the product. Lol. So I created a software agency to pay for my bills. One year ago and we are making $15k MRR. Scaling it further became hard. To make more money, you need to hire more people. It's hard to manage. Therefore I looked back at SaaS and marketplace businesses. Fixed costs, high efforts but easy scaling. Very attractive and challenging. I built Microns. Why? To help indie hackers become entrepreneurs and create small investors culture. You can't work forever for a 9-5 daily job. It's tough. Every maker, developer, and designer could be an entrepreneur. It's just a matter of time. After that, you could learn how to grow, market, build, or whatever. If you buy a micro startup, you study all of these things and get help from the previous founder, which I think is a valuable connection. Microns is for entrepreneurs who know how hard to find product-market fit and first paying customers. Sometimes, it's really challenging. So why don't you buy already built and proven business? You only need to learn how to support and grow it. If you want to sell your project feel free to do this on the website. We have a form for it. I'll be here all day, so happy to help and answer all your questions. Would love your feedback. Thanks.

Congrats on the launch Ilya! Micro-startups acquisition is indeed a very hot space, and will continue to be as more makers build their business to higher MRR. Can't wait to make my first acquisition one of these days, just subscribed to the newsletter, cheers!
Ilya Novohatskyi
@lamine, thank you for your kind words. It's a pleasure for me. Let me know if you have questions when acquiring a startup. Will be happy to help 🚀
Oli
Hello, I don't know if I miss it or not, a great thing can be to add the website link to go try them.
Ilya Novohatskyi
@oli76376962 hi Oli. What do you mean?
Sergio Pereira
@sweatc I believe what Oli is referring to is that we're unable to click on a link (if there is one its not intuitive) that will take us to the website of the listing we're looking at. Perhaps underneath the "Contact the Founder" there could be a link to the site.
Ilya Novohatskyi
Oh. Thank you, Sergio, just got the idea. That's reasonable. Right now, you can find link in the newsletter or startup's overview. But I think it would be great to add to each listing the button to the site as you suggest.
Oli
@sweatc Up the contact founder button adding a button “ visit website “ can be really useful.
