I would pay $100 a month for a service that would give me good ideas to make money in my spare time.

Interesting.

Has anyone tried the paid service -- 20% per month (or 19.99 to be precise) ?

Any experiences (positive or negative) to report?

I'm looking for something like this in the " Live Mentoring" and "Founder Community" areas...

[ EDIT: Not sure this site is seeing all that much activity. The blog posts don't have any dates on them,

but I figured from comments that the latest post is nearly 1/2 a year old. https://blog.nugget.one/ ]

Nugget has a pretty vibrant community of SaaS-focused founders. As a modern community, most of that activity is via Slack and Discourse threads, not passive blog posts. The Nugget Slack channels are pretty active, and they include real-world mentoring by folks who have been there/done that.

Like any community, only a small handful of Nugget members are super active. Many people come to Nugget looking for self-implementing ideas, and they tend to wash out when they realize that hard work is involved to make ideas into businesses.

Several Nugget members have done the work to hit revenue, and there is a core group of us who are taking advantage of mentoring by Nugget's Justin and Brandon, who really know their stuff.

I belong to FounderCafe, Fizzle and Nugget; they all add value, but Nugget is laser-focused on actively helping people actually BUILD SOMETHING. If that's what you are seeking, you owe to yourself to check out Nugget.

Here's the actual list => https://www.oppslist.com/

It looks pretty neat actually. Has filters on $ /month people are willing to pay for the SaaS solutions.

Make this for starters ^

I'll take that $100 as a cheque

Position the $100 subscription as for people that are serious about executing.

Offer a $10 subscription plan and position it as being for lukewarm starters.

Ugh I'd love to see the stats on this as an experiment.

This already exists, but I can't remember the name. In the last month or two there was a Show HN for matching small business and potential customers. The idea was that customers pledge what they're willing to pay (e.g. I will pay $X per month for Y service), and anyone looking to build a small business could find pre-validated markets to work on, lowering entry risk.

Yep, that's the one. I hope it works out, building something is a lot less stressful knowing you already have your first 5/25/100 customers.
