Hi everyone,
I’m writing because my team and I are currently evaluating the possibility of selling our startup project: a vertical social platform for university students, fully developed in-house and already live on the market.
I’m not sharing the name publicly for confidentiality reasons, but it is an active platform based in Turin, Italy, designed to connect university students through communities, events, local activities, and social interactions.
At the moment, the platform has around 6,000 registered and verified students, with access based on university email/credentials. Current usage metrics are approximately 300 daily active users and 1,500 monthly active users.
The platform includes:
a social feed with posts, comments, likes, and shares;
thematic communities;
student-created events;
a map showing events and local activities;
a profiling and matching system;
an internal dashboard for analytics, management, moderation, and platform control;
a dashboard to create and manage in-app advertising campaigns.
We have also validated the commercial side of the project. Through advertising campaigns and student-targeted ADV activities, we generated around €10,000 in revenue over the last year.
In addition to the main platform, we also developed a separate dating app for university students, with around 2,000 users and approximately €100 MRR generated through subscriptions.
The reason we are considering a sale is quite simple: the product has potential, but to truly scale it, it needs distribution channels, commercial resources, and strategic assets that we currently do not have at the necessary level. Rather than letting the project slow down or lose momentum, we would prefer to transfer it to someone who can properly grow and unlock its value.
We are open to speaking with startups, companies, agencies, players in the university, HR, events, media, or advertising sectors, as well as founders or investors interested in acquiring an already-built product with real users and validated monetization.
Anyone interested can reach out to me privately. We can share further metrics, demos, dashboards, and more detailed information under a confidential discussion.

Ciao a tutti,
scrivo perché con il team stiamo valutando di cedere il nostro progetto startup: una piattaforma social verticale per studenti universitari, sviluppata internamente e già attiva sul mercato.

Non scrivo il nome pubblicamente per evitare di esporre troppo il progetto, ma parliamo di una piattaforma già online, con sede a Torino, pensata per creare connessioni tra studenti, community universitarie, eventi e attività locali.
Ad oggi abbiamo circa 6000 studenti registrati e verificati, con accesso tramite email/credenziali universitarie. Le metriche attuali sono circa 300 utenti attivi giornalieri e 1500 utenti attivi mensili

Dentro la piattaforma ci sono:
feed social con post, commenti, like e condivisioni;
community tematiche;
eventi creati dagli studenti;
mappa con eventi e attività;
sistema di profilazione e matching;
dashboard interna per analytics, gestione, moderazione e controllo della piattaforma;
dashboard per creare e gestire campagne pubblicitarie in-app.

Abbiamo anche validato una parte commerciale: grazie a campagne pubblicitarie e attività ADV rivolte agli studenti, nell’ultimo anno abbiamo generato circa 10.000€ di fatturato.

Il motivo della cessione è abbastanza semplice: il prodotto ha potenziale, ma per farlo crescere davvero servono canali distributivi, risorse commerciali e asset che oggi noi non abbiamo nella misura necessaria. Piuttosto che lasciarlo fermo o farlo morire lentamente, preferiremmo cederlo a qualcuno che possa valorizzarlo meglio.
Siamo aperti a parlare con startup, aziende, agenzie, realtà nel mondo universitario, HR, eventi, media, advertising o con founder/investitori interessati ad acquisire un progetto già costruito, con utenti reali e monetizzazione già testata.
Chi fosse interessato può scrivermi in privato. Possiamo condividere metriche, demo, dashboard e informazioni più dettagliate in modo riservato.

Ciao a tutti, sono uno sviluppatore indie dev e ho diversi prodotti sul mercato che generano revenue mensile.
Sto cercando qualcun* con competenze in marketing che sia disponibile per creare post e contenuti social in grado di ottenere nuovi utenti (ovviamente retribuito)

Se qualcuno è disponibile mi contatti

Ciao a tutti, sto cercando qualche amministratore di condominio disponibile a rispondere a qualche mio dubbio su questa professione, qualcuno di voi può aiutarmi?

My university schedule changes every single week. New rooms, shifted times, professors swapping slots last minute: it was a mess to keep track of. I got tired of manually adding everything to my calendar, so I built an app that does it from a photo: you snap your timetable, it reads it, and creates the events automatically. That's it. Photo2Calendar.

The launch was far from perfect. The UI was rough, some edge cases didn't work, and I pushed it out anyway. Not a lot happened at first.

Then HowToMen, a tech YouTube channel with around 800k subscribers, mentioned it out of nowhere. Downloads spiked hard, way more than I was ready for. Instead of panicking, I used that window to talk to as many users as possible and figure out what was actually broken. That period basically funded the next three months of improvements.

Now the app handles a ton of different input types, the UX is clean, and it works reliably. The traffic from that initial boom turned into word of mouth, app store reviews, and eventually consistent organic growth. We're sitting at around $1k MRR today, fully bootstrapped, no ads.

It started as a personal problem. Turns out a lot of people have the same one: now I'm looking for strategy to grow more and more, I would appreciate any kind of advice, organic growth is good, but it is really difficult to get paid traffic for this kind of utility app.
