Never miss an acquisition offer again. One line of code lets buyers make offers while you build. 100% free to embed. Perfect for indie hackers and founders who'd love to see a nice acquisition offer in their inbox.
just built something fun: http://offerbutton.com and it’s 100% free for founders
story time - back in college i built a dating app. making ok money from ads, nothing crazy.
one day, random email hits our help inbox: "interested in acquiring your site, wanna chat?”
It was a brazilian company. It was only by some random chance that I was in that support inbox. Thank god.
turned into life-changing exit offer (at least it felt like that at the time). classic right place right time situation.
got me thinking: why isn't there an easy way for buyers to find sellers? Wouldn’t it be cool to sell your business to someone just browsing?
so i built offerbutton - one line of code that lets anyone make an offer to buy your business:
that's it. embed it, forget it, wait for offers.
built this entire thing with v0/cursor because everyone said "ai coding isn't ready for real products"
prove them wrong i guess?
Offerbutton is perfect for:
- indie hackers with projects
- creators with media properties
- saas founders testing exit interest
- anyone building in public
How we make money: buyers have to pay $20 to send an offer. This also adds the quality of the buyer so you dont get a bunch of spam.
offerbutton works for deals $1k to $10m+.
why i think offerbutton could be cool
too many great products die because founders/buyers never find each other.
let's fix that.
who's got something to sell?
@greg_isenberg First of all, that is hands down the best video I've seen on Product Hunt. Absolutely legendary.
As someone who's currently looking to acquire a business, this is obviously up my alley (lol). And the fact that there's an Offer Button on offerbutton.com itself is :chefskiss:
Not sure how much the entire concept is a bit, but I have some thoughts on the button itself. "Make an offer" may not be fully understood by potential buyers as being directed at them, and it may confuse end-users/customers if it conflicts with a CTA or action in the site. Have you considered something like to "Buy this company" or "Make an offer on the company?"
Next, the placement is tricky—a lot of people have their chat widget in the bottom right. As both a buyer and a seller, I'd want this button on the About page, inline, with some context. Ideally under a heading like "Are you open to selling [sitename]?" and above some text like "I'm having fun operating [sitename] and have no need to sell, but I'm always open to chatting. If you'd like to start the conversation, make me a nonbinding offer!"
Congrats on the launch!!
This is a super cool idea
It would be really helpful for an Indie hacker like me
Just wanted to clarify, you guys only make money from the buyers when they place an offer or do sellers also have to a pay a fixed percentage or fixed amount?
