Unloved Project — Pay less for your next acquisition, instant route to market.

Description

“ 👋 Hey Product Hunt! Simon here. Excited to make this happen! I was chatting with a dev friend of mine recently who is on the lookout for his next project. We both agreed that buying something makes a lot of sense as it can give you an instant route to market and can save you a ton of time and money. The problem we encountered was that whenever we found anything desirable the valuations nowadays are often higher than we feel is viable. Also, even some of the high priced stuff can feel, how shall we say, a little “sub-par”. Searching for good projects can start to become a bit of a chore. It’s getting harder and harder to find any real gems. I thought back to some of the podcasts I’d listened to. I remembered something @nathanlatka had said about how he likes to acquire products like Chrome extensions. This seemed like a super-smart approach to me and immediately the lightbulb went off in my head. As an indie maker I see so many great projects fizzle because the developer doesn’t know how to market them properly for example. Unloved Project aims to match people with all these projects that deserved way more love. Projects that, in the right hands, could go on to be a huge success. Don’t believe me? Check out the two success stories on the blog from entrepreneurs who did exactly this. Both bought projects that were generating way less than $1k MRR. One now makes $10k MRR and the other is on target for $20k MRR. Both figures were achieved in less than a year after acquisition. Thank you to everyone who supported me on this journey so far. Your feedback, advice and encouragement to continue shipping was invaluable 🔥 Would love to hear from you? 😃 - Simon ” – Simon D Discussion | Link
