I know indie makers who managed to become successful very quickly, but in 90% of cases it does not happen quickly.
I have learned from my experience and many other indie makers that 3 years is the time it takes for any indie maker to start earning enough to work on their projects full time.
I am still building new products despite the fact that I already have profitable projects.
My latest project IndieMerger was created in less than a week and pleasantly surprised me. I created it because my most successful project became truly successful after I found a partner and I wanted to try to help other indie makers find a marketer/developer partner.
I did not expect that so many people want to find co-founders to join forces. And now I see great potential in this product and plan to focus on it.
But none of this would have happened if in 2021 I hadn’t started building and trying to launch projects one after another.
