Congratulations, this is an incredible achievement. Out of curiosity was this someone you onboarded to the app purely for testing purposes? Or did the user convert expecting a production version.

I ask because I too have just got my first app on the app store and have been getting some users and some have even paid, but I have not been able to get much feedback from them. Have even reached out to some via email.

Still nothing. So interms of features and improvements I am mostly going blind based on usage data

 

We have just soft launched our ios app and have gained a few paying customers.

The only downside is that apple payouts for purchases in Oct are scheduled for December.

I get that they have a large control on mobile market but this just seems outrageous for startups.

Anyone else experienced this and have any work arounds. I have been seeing quite a few apps use onboarding funnels hosted on their website which tied to stripe payments. I am guessing they then use this to grant paid access on the app bypassing apple.

Is this the only way?

I am building Briefme

Gives you a daily 2 min news summary on any topic. No more going on social media for news and getting distracted for hours

Thank you so much for this

Thank you so much for the excellent suggestions, I am going to reach out acquire and empire flipper. Thank you to all showing an interest, I will send a dm to all once we have a listing on one of these sites. I figure there is more trust this way to both sides ๐Ÿ™

Thank you so much, having a look now. ๐Ÿ™

Thank you so much. Is it in the eco niche? Sending a dm anyway to see if it could be a match.

 

My partner and I have been running a small ecommerce business in the sustainability niche.

But we are expecting our first baby in Dec and we have been considering options as we want to spend time with the family.

The business has really good reviews, 11.4 k social folllowung, 10% return customers and a lot of processes, unique products that has helped us carve out our own little blue ocean.

Both the business and we are not at stage where we can justify hiring more to carry it forward and free our time.

I am thinking selling it could be an option? Does anyone here have any experience with ecom store sales, or any tips or idea how much we could sell it for? Also, how i would go about it?

Thanks in advance ๐Ÿ™

P.S. profits are around 20% but there are ways that things can be streamlines

Congratulations this is such milestone. The first internet earning always breaks so many mental blockers. I remember i used to think all these educators showing how to make money online were just trying to scam me out of mine
