👋 Hello hunters (and gatherers).

(No, I’ll never stop with this joke!)

I'm super excited to make Open For Ads for the community!

Here is a fun story: 3 weeks ago I gave myself a little challenge of making the whole product in one week. I scheduled the Product Hunt launch before making the actual app. I only had a landing page and a few media on the waitlist. I was ready to launch, but then...

...I ate a bad burrito, had really bad food poisoning, and ended up in the hospital due to extreme dehydration. 🥵

Since the launch was scheduled, it launched while I was away. But fortunately, Product Hunt's team was kind enough to delete it and allow me to launch again. So, here we are! 😄

Why Open For Ads?

For Medias:

As a media, you know how hard it is to get advertisers. You have to make research, send lots of emails, and most of the time, you don’t even get a response.
But not anymore.
Open For Ads is a platform that allows you to get in touch with advertisers in a few clicks.
Just create an account, add your media, and start getting advertisers!

For Advertisers:

So, you have a great product, got some validation, but now it's time to scale things up. How do you do that?

Sure, organic is always a good way, but it takes time. Sure, you could use Google Ads, Meta and other big platforms, but you'd have to spend weeks learning how it works and pray not to get banned instantly.

But what can you do? 😩

✨ Open For Ads ✨ is a platform that will allow you to quickly find the most relevant media to promote your product.

Filter by size, budget, and many more criteria, to find the perfect audiences 🔍

For now it's 100% free for everyone, but I'm not excluding adding paid features in the future. I will see based on the feedback I get.

And that's it! I hope you'll like it, and I can't wait to see all the ads you'll make! 😍

BONUS: Free Tool

I also made adsprofitcalculator.com, a free tool that allows you to quickly calculate if you can make a profit with ads. It will also give you personalized tips based on your numbers!

Looks pretty exciting. And resembles an influencer marketing program for Twitter at a smaller scale for micro content creators!

I love that Open For Ads gives independent media owners more control over their ad inventory. You can choose which ads to accept and which to reject, so you can maintain the integrity of your content.
