This is an awesome list!
$1k MRR may not sound impressive in Silicon Valley / New York etc., but 1) it's actually pretty good in other places in the world - the world is just too big, too diverse; 2) not many people have the skill to make $1k MRR without working for an established companies, and not many people have the time / energy to do side hustles or have guts to quit their job to find time to do so.
$1k MRR is a milestone. You can grow it to $2k, $5k, $10k down the road. Your efforts can directly affect the financial outcome.
- upen946 6y agoThankyou. Exactly. This is for all those people who would love to have their first sweet spot of achieving $1K MRR to start with. For Silicon Valley/New York, ofcourse $1K MRR is nothing. But we have lot examples who went on nomad life style travelling countries and working from places with cheaper cost of living and in those case $1K MRR is still big.
- stanislavb 6y agoNice list, mate! As the founder of SaaSHub, I'd suggest adding it to the list, too. The current MRR is ~$2.4k, and it's been about a bit more than a year since I quit my job and started working full-time on it. https://www.saashub.com/open https://www.saashub.com/open
- blackrock 6y agoWhere does most of your revenue come from? Listing fees? Or ads?
- Grustaf 6y agoIt IS a milestone, but 1k a month is not a meaningful amount in any rich country. Remember, it's revenue for your company, not your net salary. Not even your gross salary.
- reader_mode 6y agoDepends on how much time you have to spend to make it work - if it's a full time thing 1k MRR is >7$/hour if you spend 160 hours a month on it - if you can code anywhere in the world that's below lowest tier remote coding gigs, triple that and you approach low end remote gigs.
