Joining communities and virtual meet-ups is helpful. I really like this one: https://microsaashq.com - it's community plus newsletter for solo-founders/bootstrappers.

Thanks. In general I like your idea but this community is rubbing me the wrong way.

I personally don't want to be sold courses or books, and don't like the "passive income" or "we'll give you 800 ideas" pitch a lot of these groups have.

Maybe I'm being too picky...

Hi there!! Founder here from https://microsaashq.com - I can understand what you mean with so many resources on internet that promise passive income and random ideas.

No, MicroSaaSHQ operates in a different way. They are not some random ideas. Each idea is researched around a given niche, comes with analysis around Technical chops, Marketing chops, Costs analysis to cater to 100 customers, keyword analysis for existing competitors etc.

The goal is to make it as easy as possible for someone to start picking ideas. I myself picked a few of these and able to make them profitable.

Another big asset is the community out these to discuss about each topic. We are also making this bigger and better with Founder interviews and Founder insights from 1000+ founders.

So, yeah its a massive ecosystem around Micro SaaS and some Non Micro SaaS stuff like Communities, Info Products, Marketplaces, Productized Services etc too.

Hope that helps.

I get you. This is not one of those. The discussions are meaningful. The newsletter is also not at all like those typical 'earn money' type selling junk - the quality is in fact quite impressive unlike the message one gets from the website. lol.
