It's indeed similar to the Baremetrics dashboard, but a lot simpler. At least initially.
I actually built this for BetaList about half a year ago, but never publicly launched it. I could implement it for WIP rather quickly. I just want to make sure it's worth the continued support. If we can get a decent number of makers to pre-commit I'll invest the time into building the feature.
I'm definitely curious to know the numbers of fellow makers and I'm open to sharing mine too, but I haven't been able to understand the benefit of it except that makers are helping each other (which is a good enough reason IMO). Is there any other benefit? Why would a private company share their numbers?
👋 Join WIP to participate
That's a great idea. Transparency is part of my marketing strategy and I would love to see all kind of MRR for different stages of a product.
How would you implement that?
Like buffer.baremetrics.com/?

I think it's a nice idea. I'd be open to sharing my revenue whenever some rolls in. And I do use Stripe.
No Stripe in South Africa. Not sure I would be comfortable sharing revenue data.
I don't use Stripe, but what could be a good idea is to share the revenues with the wip members, not everybody?

share with wip. Yes.
share with the internet. i would need to think more.
main con being:
the sample who shares revenue is more than proportionality represented by SUCCESSFUL makers.
this distorts the reality of being a maker

telling makers your rich is cool
telling the internet your rich is unnecessary
