nice appygen ad...
- pc86 9y agoIndiehackers is literally advertisements for the companies/founders it covers (most of the time).
- da02 9y agoDo these Indiehackers stories ever leave out important details? (Example: I remember reading about ProSoundEffects in a book, and the author (Tim Ferris) left out important facts, like how the founder of the company had years of experience in contract law and negotiated exclusive distributorship deals before automating the business in Yahoo Stores. In other HN anecdotes, people leave out all the spam and email ads they have to send in order to get sales for their product.)
- wiradikusuma 9y agoAnd I think it's fine, as long as it gives something valuable to the readers. Not necessarily repeatable business ideas (there's a saying that when someone share his secret, it's already exhausted), but it gives motivation.
- highace 9y agoThat's the whole point. You thought the founders were getting warm fuzzies from sharing their story?
- AlexAffe 9y agoYes! Was looking for that comment. Super slow read, half way through I recognized I was reading an ad.
- empath75 9y agoIt’s a rare ad that starts with the product owner telling you how much he hates the product.
- dovdovdov 9y agostill an ad, and such a transparent lousy technique.
