How to get investor attention: 1. Write about a controversial topic relevant to Hacker News 2. Show off traction 3. Say you are not looking for $$$ (Bonus: get more customers)
- techgen 12y agoLol, you are probably right. I bet these get money thrown at them from investors that don't respect accelerators (there are lots of them). They have over 40k users (probably more now) and charge 20$ per month. Close to 1m a month in revenue. They don't need investment or an accelerator at this point. I think it was a brilliant self marketing tactic. And then they have the balls to post it here, lol... Love it. I think we are all witnessing a genius marketing stunt that is going to be the topic of discussion in the future.
