The market, and why this works now
The rise of remote work has led to an increase in businesses seeking partnerships through digital channels. Utilizing platforms like Indie Hackers can provide initial traction by connecting with startup founders who need outreach solutions. A key risk to consider is the customer acquisition cost, which may be high due to the need for personalized outreach and the time required to build meaningful relationships, potentially extending the payback window.
