SideInves.io is a marketplace where you can find people who are interested in buying your business or invest in your business and provide you proper guidance, and in return, you can offer some equity of the business.
I like the idea but not that you have to pay to see the info... Why not getting a cut in the investment or the side-project purchase? You will also align your interest with those of the people selling or looking for investment. I think that's a healthier relationship.
This is just my opinion but anyways, good luck with your project! Looks promissing
@yago_martinez_falero_hein Hi Yago, the main reason for this is to stop spam, like other marketplaces, users get a lot of spam messages from people who are not even interested in buying but they are messaging just to get more info about the product.
This was the efficient way I came up, but I am open to suggestions let's see in which direction things may go
@yago_martinez_falero_hein user can just visit the site and contact the site owner directly...
I am working on a business model, will update on the website soon :)
I actually love the idea and the UX is really nice.
On the other hand, I am wondering of the long term investment relationship for a business with their investors. In one hand it can create true leverage for a business to start, get funded and find the right market fit to scale afterwards with more traditional investment actors. On the other end, I am wondering about the equity dilution that could stop VCs or other firm to invest afterwards.
In any case, I think that it is a great idea that will push entrepreneurs to find alternative investment possibilities if the traditional actors don't seem to buy in at first.
@maxime_girres Hey Maxime, I am planning to register the side projects (using stripe atlas or any other platform) and handle the dilution legally. Let's see how it goes and I will keep the updates clear on the website.
Thank you for mentioning your thoughts :)
I like UX of the Sideinvest. Really intuitive to follow. The product itself might find its niche in connecting small investors with indie hackers looking for support. I'm in 😉
