It was a hosted checkout platform for digital service providers, built on top of Stripe, called BillTo (was http://bill.to http://bill.to). I managed to launch an MVP, gain a few customers, and processed ~$40k transaction volume before shutting it down.
After 2 years of ups and downs as a sole founder, I got sick of it and moved on. Lesson learned, I should have stuck with it and figured out other ways to manage my burnout.
- gitgud 8y agoSounds like a roller coaster is that $40k in 2 years?... Still more money than any side project made me....
- throwaway413 8y agoThat was just transaction volume on the platform - I made ~$750 on that after my costs (charging processing fees). The $40k occurred within about a 3 month range after working on it for 1.5 years, and then as my burnout kicked in, volume fizzled out for the final 3 months I put into it before quitting.
