The Maker Letter ·
backup your claims
Hey Friend,
There's a company called Linktree. They help you aggregate all your "link in bios" under one roof. Genius idea.
One thing was missing though = transparency.
So I built a version of linktree for myself here (https://jacobpegs.co).
The difference? I get to add my stripe key with "Read only" access to it.
And that instills trust in my audience because everything self updates.
Now, I brought the same principle into The Island we're building.
You get to log your code, or product (in green), and you get to add whatever stripe links to your upcoming products to share publicly.
On a bad month? You're in the red. On a good month? You're in the green. And that's the whole solopreneur journey.
No false claims or shady marketing tactics right?
Transparency right now is the most important thing in business. It takes years to build trust. And it takes 1 wrong move to lose it. Because the market doesn't forget.
So you might as well give them a good show.
This Maker Page - my version of linktree - is something I'm working on, and will be live roasting it inside The Island.
Then I'll be launching it out in public as a micro SaaS product. I'm not looking for $1.3billion or any investment... but I'm looking to bring back the transparency layer to our little solopreneur ecosystem.
If you'd use something like that hit reply with "me" and I'll keep you in mind next week.
ps. If you want to be part of the live roast, you can grab a seat inside The Island (https://modernmaker.xyz).
Your biggest fan,
Jacob “transparency” Pegs
oh look, a hooman!
