I'm pulling together the key metrics from the early days: started with $2K in revenue from paying customers in month one after launching April 1st, grew to nearly 100 users by the following month though most were on free trials. I've got 15 years of corporate experience behind me, spent a few intense months working 12-hour days to build the platform, and that initial $2K revenue covered the build costs and more. Registered the business last year, and the Product Hunt launch didn't generate much traction—scored 90 points with 93 comments, which is more of a vanity metric than a real business indicator.
