His dedication towards the community and making sure EVERY member gets value out of it deserves a standing ovation. Not just Ayush but the community itself is so supportive. There are people in the same boat - and often ahead of me - that I can reach out to with my questions and ALWAYS receive a response. Everyone is so polite, helpful and open. The educational content - especially around SEO - is just icing on the cake. And my fav is the Accountability Circle. If you're a bootstrapped founder, indiehacker, working on a side project or run an online business - this is your tribe. Nothing comes close."(8)115 members
