About MicroExits

The tech world is obsessed with "Unicorns." I’m obsessed with freedom.

We’ve been sold a version of success that requires a decade of grinding for a 1% chance at a billion-dollar IPO. I think that’s a broken model. I started MicroExits to focus on a faster, more human path: building "small" assets and selling them for $10k to $500k.

In the real world, those aren't small numbers. They are life-changing wins.

What I share every week:

The Stories: Raw, behind-the-scenes interviews with founders who actually cashed out. No fluff, just the real numbers.

The Exit-First Playbook: How to build your Micro-SaaS, Shopify app, or newsletter so it’s "sell-ready" from the first line of code.

The Planning: How to value your work, find the right buyer, and walk away with a clean deal.

Micro-Deals: A curated look at interesting projects currently on the move.

Why join?

Most advice is about the hustle. This is about the handover.

If you’d rather have $100k in the bank today than a "billion-dollar maybe" in ten years, you’re in the right place.

Build for the exit. Own your time.
