Yes the marketing is annoying, but have you actually experimented with the world of Web3. Have you played with defi, bought in early any gaming tokens? The fact that all of this can happen on-chain where it's completely transparent is really unique. It's why there has been so many companies explode into the 50M-100M revenue range in 2021 - https://consensys.net/reports/web3-report-q3-2021/

I created a project called Knit Data (https://knityourdata.com). It allowed you to connect your Google Analytic with Hubspot automatically. Every night it would sync the CRM transactions into Google Analytics as an event, which gave a better viewpoint of attribution. We ended up making about $1200 a month from 3 customers in ARR.

The biggest learning is business partners -- choose wisely. My business partner is still a friend, but he didn't produce and it ended up me just doing all the code, all the marketing, so I asked myself why should I continue if I'm doing all the work and he doesn't have the time. The other big learning was making sure to do proper validation before building or spending your time on something. I took the word of my friend because he was an expert in the space. We had no problem getting people to sign up and literally give us their API keys (at first), but they wouldn't respond back to emails - which shows it's not a huge pain point.

I'm now working on a few other ideas on the side but making sure to do proper validation before building.

I'm currently using zappa and lambda for supporting about 25 b2b users. It's a django / react application and I use cloudwatch for scheduled cron jobs. My overall cost is <$20 a month.
