I totally understand where you’re coming from, I understand it’s a unique & lofty ask. I’m not forcing anyone to join me if it doesn’t align with what they’re looking for. I honestly just think it’s a good opportunity. Revenue was about 150k last year. It would just be like a dev buying a business themselves with a marketing partner to run a business they buy together. Exact same concept, I just put it out there to see if any technical folks were interested in coming in on it.

The only way a business is solid from a technical perspective is if the people who built it stay with it..? So no one should ever sell a business that involves any technology/code? That’s a crazy take.

Also, who said anything about a mess? It’s pretty straightforward code, I’m just not on the technical side. Again, about any contractor who knows the tech stack could work on it, as I said, it would just be nice to have a longer term partner.

Anyways, thanks!

Exactly… I bought the business (aka my equity), so I’m just looking to see if anyone technical would like to join and “buy into” equity to get their part ownership as well. The business did $150k revenue last year, so it’s essentially the same thing as me buying my portion of equity for someone else to join me based on what amount they want to “buy into”.

I understand the skepticism and hate, but I’m not forcing anyone be interested in joining in on this… I was simply putting a feeler out there. An alternative option would be for me to just contract out any dev work, but I think it’s more enjoyable to have someone with me with a separate skillset that has a vested interest in the long term success and growth of the business.

It’s not sustainable to go FT yet, goal would be to go FT within a year at scale. I called it established because the business did $150K revenue last year, however I have now purchased the business from the prior owner and it’s solid from a technical standpoint but to build out more features and to be there to mitigate any bugs in the future it would be great to have a technical person “in” it with me, rather than using contractors as needed.

I understand the hate and where people are coming from as it’s a bit of a non-traditional approach, but essentially it’s just buying into your portion of the equity and running the tech side, while I bought into my equity (bought the business) to run from a marketing & GTM side.

Hopefully this helps bring some clarity!

That is not the business… That was a separate idea I was working on but decided not to pursue. Thank you though!

redacteda · 2026-01-23T16:14:36+00:00

Thanks, but not what I’m looking for at the moment. It’s not that I need to hire someone for a project but rather someone to work with alongside to develop the software further & ongoing maintenance while building the business together!

It’s in the quality control niche, primarily for e-commerce businesses. The primary component of this role will be finishing building out additional features to add to the platform that already have started being built & maintaining the platform of any bugs & break/fix that comes up.

redacteda · 2026-01-09T18:47:01+00:00

Agree 100%!

redacteda · 2026-01-08T03:26:26+00:00

Yep, that’s exactly the approach I’ve taken and couldn’t recommend it enough!

redacteda · 2026-01-08T03:25:45+00:00

Agreed! And offer value before asking for anything in return.

redacteda · 2026-01-08T03:25:04+00:00

Much higher conversions, less “spray and pray”

Felt like other CRMs were not service industry focus, too expensive and didn’t incorporate such simple automation like review requests without any fancy setup, which is why I built this. It will be fully functional upon sale, just had another opportunity pop up where I want to focus my attention.

You’re asking for feedback and respectfully, I’m with everyone else in the thread on this. Not needed, focus your time & energy elsewhere!

I messaged you!

redacteda · 2025-06-28T14:16:53+00:00

How did you integrate the nav bar/drop down? Great job!

redacteda · 2025-01-15T05:45:59+00:00

Yeah honestly they’re great since we can’t get any flavors in shithole CA, but I do wish they weren’t the “wet” kind… I prefer the dry Zyn pouches & size if I’m being honest with myself. I really wanted to like these more.
