What’s up you gorgeous Product Hunters! I’m Noah Kagan, Chief Sumo and founder of Sumo Group (AppSumo, SendFox, Sumo.com). AppSumo has grown its software community on the core idea that the tools you need to grow your business shouldn’t put you out of business. Today, we’re launching the AppSumo Marketplace: where we highlight products from up-and-coming hustlers within our community. This year, millions of individuals are starting their own businesses. The Marketplace helps those creators expand their audience of potential customers and get valuable user feedback from a trusted network of fellow business owners. In addition to software, you can list a range of products on the Marketplace, from e-books to PDFs to courses. Unlike a typical limited-time select deal on AppSumo, the Marketplace listings remain evergreen. Creators decide how to price and promote their product, and AppSumo showcases the best tools to our extensive audience of Sumo-lings. In only 3 months we’ve already had over 280 Marketplace partners selling their products and paid out nearly $500,000 to them. We look forward to hearing your feedback and answering any questions!

Finding all marketplace deals is nearly impossible, which is sad because there are many gems in the marketplace. The pain among the LTD community was real, eventually I jumped on the opportunity and organized everything with my own tool: https://rodrigomartinez.fyi.to/a... . One of my latest finds, and that has monetization potential, is highlighted in the list. It's a smart certicate tool (I'm not related with them). Founders need every chance they can to promote their startup, thank you @noahkagan for bringing us AppSumo Marketplace!!

@noahkagan @rodrigomartinez Great feedback! Up until now, this has been our way of making sure the most committed partners get the feature spotlight. We’re in the process of exposing ALL Marketplace deals that way we can increase the discoverability of all the hidden gems (there are many) 🚀

@noahkagan @rodrigomartinez huge +1. Well, from the other side - makes you think and work even harder :)

Been proud to be part of the AppSumo Marketplace. And delighted that the AppSumo team picked BetterSheets to be in the marketplace. It's a great team working hard for great customers. Sumo-lings are special!

Hey, awesome @noahkagan congratulations on launch 💪 I also congratulate myself =) as my product https://appsumo.com/provenly/ is already there and sales are going well! So I recommend AppSumo Marketplace to the PH community! in addition, this is a great opportunity not only for sales but also for product-market fit. I get a lot of suggestions and questions there from real sumo-lings and now I have already received a ton of feedback and reviews, which is very important for a new product so now my roadmap is full for the year ahead. I recommend definitely AppSumo Marketplace! the team is very friendly and responds immediately and helps to solve any situations or issues!

@noahkagan @bootstraptor Major PROPS to you and Proven.ly team for having an awesome product 💪🏼 Thank you for sharing a little bit about your experience!! It's be awesome having y'all apart of the Marketplace. Cannot wait to see Proven.ly continue to grow
Anatolii [ aka @Bootstraptor ]
@noahkagan @seann_stubbs Hey =) I'm glad I had the opportunity to work with both of you! My product is already growing, thanks again! hope to launch this soon on the main AppSumo mailing list =) and yes I forgot to mention here for the PH community that there is a possibility of iteration and within lean startup's methodology, in fact you can grow gradually in the beginning, you get some feedback and reviews from appsumo customers and get additional promotion from AppSumo then you grow and get new reviews and ratings and get the opportunity to promote for the appsumo main mailing list - ( I hope I will be there soon with Proven.ly ) this is kind maybe of a "tiny kickstarter" for your startup

@bootstraptor Indeed! The support and feedback the Sumo-ling community provides is invaluable 💪🏼

One of the best things to happen in the small biz space during these pandemic times is this marketplace. Awesome idea, small businesses helping one another by buying and selling one another's products instead of buying from the expensive market dominating players :)

@rmcsharry Appreciate the kind words and support!! We're here to help all businesses during this time and BEYOND ❤️

On your support page the payout method is listed only for US. Is the partner program available for only US based sellers?

@mariamyusuf_ Hey Mariam! No, the Marketplace is open to anyone, anywhere in the world. Our creators are from all over 🌎

The quality of Deals in the Marketplace is truly outstanding. There are so many gems! Not to mention that this give founders another platform for getting the visibility they need, especially during these trying times. Another slam dunk from AppSumo!

@abe_challah ❤️ Thank you for supporting all these truly incredible Marketplace products
Mike Rosales
Congratulations on the launch @noahkagan and team AppSumo! It's very interesting to see just how many startups are out there who don't have enough knowledge, tech, skills, and funds to get their name out there. I think it's a win-win for both the seller and the marketplace itself!

It's been fantastic to be part of the AppSumo Marketplace ... not only is it a great way to expose our followup tool CLOSEM to a wide range of users, but we also rely on it to find great productivity tools at incredible prices we use everyday.

I love the marketplace, it gives me time to create things and not to market them for sales on all days and nights. The time to open in these hard times is very good.

@microdesignn BOOM! That's exactly it 🚀 We want you to focus on creating dope products. Thanks for the support Martin

It introduced me to few great courses and apps already! At the same time, AppSumo Marketplace is a great space for creators and business owners to expand, get serious feedback from a great community, and gain new customers as well. Well done @noahkagan and the full Sumo team!

The new AppSumo Marketplace definitely an awesome release for @appsumo... not only is it a great way to expose our Point of Sale Software BIYO POINT OF SALE but for other innovators as well.

Jijo Jose
Great idea but I feel it's not perfect yet. As far I know the products with less than 5 reviews are not displayed in the marketplace forcing some(very few) developers to create new accounts and drop reviews till they have the initial 5 reviews. The "1 product purchased" tag shows this. I might be wrong. Is there a reason why you don't display products in the listing page until it gets 5 reviews? Thank you for helping developers and us users during these hard times. Discovered some amazing softwares on AppSumo.

@jijojosein Thanks for the support and feedback! We have a lot of traffic for the AppSumo Marketplace, for now, this is our way of making sure the most committed partners get the feature spotlight. We’re in the process of exposing ALL Marketplace deals that way we can increase the discoverability of all products 🚀

Can the creator choose to be on the front page instead of Marketplace? How do you decide?
noah kagan
Maker
@quincylun Right now we use an algorithm similar to Amazon that figures out where to rank products. It’s something we’ll be working on for a long time.

@noahkagan As a longtime sumo-ling I thought it was 100% manual! Very cool - how much of it do you think it can be automated and how much are you aiming?
V Keerthi Vikram
As a Appsumo customer I can say that you will find great products such as Burner Mail Reader Mode Brain.fm Kriya AI and many more for a very large discount. It is a must check before buying any SaaS.
