Before and since the COVID-19 outbreak my company has had and will continue to have a sole focus on helping small businesses with a humanistic approach, and this is the core of what matters most to us and what drives the thinking behind each project. This project specifically is one that showcases resources for those getting started in tech, those transitioning to tech due to losing their job and anyone else looking for solid low priced, or in most cases as you will see, free tools that can help you excel and be efficient at the same time! Lastly, and importantly, this site is also dedicated to charitable resources and good causes for those that need it. The beauty of this project is that this is just the beginning and the plan is to evolve from a static platform to a dynamic one. What I mean by this is that I am personally adding the products myself and will accept submissions, which I will also add myself. The end goal here is to still accept submissions, but make it more of an automated process. Additionally, I plan to tie into the Product Hunt API for pulling products of certain categories that have the most upvotes. I have big plans for this thing to grow and will be totally transparent with the platform. You may be asking yourself, isn't this just like Startup Stash? It is very similar, but my focus is more to help with the financial aspect. As a small business owner, I understand the importance of tools that are free or cheap and effective at the same time. A decade of running a small biz (just me and one other and no revenue) and the current state of the world is what made me feel like this project was worth the time. So, no, I don't even consider this a competitive effort on my part and actually feature Startup Stash on the site. I'm hear to help! Hit me up if you need any!

@steve_connerton1 Hi Steve, Checked it out, some quick insights: 1. So its a website that aggragates resources for Startups and tech in general 2. I see sections now for Startup, tech, etc but I think sections within would help lots. Like in Startups, you can see resources like how to find a problem?, how to hack together an MVP?, how to get first users. etc. 3. Thanks for helping small biz!

@billfromberlocks Absolutely! All these kind of ideas are in the pipeline. This is and MVP of an MVP if you ask me. Extremely minimal, but stay tuned. I think you will be impressed when I start implementing some of the new features.
