Hey, Product Hunters!
I’m so excited to share a new version of Microns with you.
It's my second launch here, so don't be afraid to roast.
Three years passed since I presented Microns. In the summer of 2021, I was in Odesa, Ukraine, swimming with my wife.
At that stage, Microns was just a concept with 15 startup listings and around 150 newsletter subscribers — nothing serious.
I launched on the last day of the weekend, and it blew my mind. So many founders liked the project, and we became the #3 Product of the Day.
I remember that day. I was on the bus driving home and replying to every comment on PH. It was a positive sign for me to continue working on the project.
Since then, many things have changed, and Microns has gained much improvement and traction. We have sold over 70 startups worth $300k+.
Based on customer feedback, I’ve added Profiles, Metrics, Chat, Analytics, and other features you asked for.
Microns is fully bootstrapped, so monetization was crucial to keeping the marketplace working. For this reason, I created a Premium membership and Transfer service, and people started paying. It was that magical moment.
You can sell any of your online projects for free. The main requirements are as follows: your project has revenue and is bootstrapped.
To buy a startup, you must have a Premium membership.
If you need help with your transaction and want to feel safe, request our Transfer service.
I'll be here all day, so I'm happy to answer all your questions.
Do you have any suggestions regarding the platform or monetization? I would love your feedback.
Thank you.
Congrats on your Product Hunt launch! 🚀 Wishing you all the best as your product takes off.
Hi Ilya,
Great launch, and I am already loving it!
I was wondering if there is a way to browse the recently sold startups as the homepage displays only 6.
congratulations on the v2 launch, ilya! it's inspiring to see how much microns has grown since its inception. the dedication to customer feedback and continuous improvement truly shines through. i'm curious, what motivated you to create a platform specifically for buying and selling profitable bootstrapped startups?
good one. but i admire how the listing will work? will you do it manually or any startup can enlist them?
What a fantastic journey with Microns! 🚀 It's truly inspiring to hear how the concept has evolved significantly since its early days. 🎉
I'm particularly interested in the new features like Profiles, Metrics, Chat, and Analytics. How have these additions influenced user engagement and transaction efficiency on Microns? 📈
Also, the introduction of a Premium membership and Transfer service sounds like a smart move for monetization. Could you share more about the impact these features have had on the overall growth and sustainability of the platform? 💡
It’s exciting to see Microns thriving as a fully bootstrapped marketplace. I’m looking forward to hearing more about your future plans and any new features you might be considering to enhance the platform even further! 🌐✨
Thank you for sharing your story, and congratulations on your success! I'm eager to see what comes next, @sweatc .
I'm excited to dive into Microns v2 and explore the world of profitable micro-startups. For entrepreneurs looking to jumpstart their ventures, this is an incredible resource. Well done to the team on the launch - I can't wait to see what the future holds!
really cool idea. not sure how such an early handoff of a burgeoning idea will affect products at scale, but super interested in following the economy this creates!
Congrats guys 😊 Can you provide examples of successful startup acquisitions facilitated by Microns?
