Sheet2Bio

Create a link-in-bio using Google Sheets. For creators & indie hackers.

Set up new hacky non-automated payment flow... very un-SaaS-like

Customer joins queue via queue form → I get notified via email → I email them payment link and confirm user handle (esp. if unavailable) → customer pays → redirected to thank you page → I get notified of payment → I create Google Sheet + link-in-bio page → I grant customer access to Sheet + editing permissions → customer logins, edits Sheet to customize their own link-in-bio page → END

Onboarded yet another beta user /100stories !

And with that, the beta comes to an end! Will launch MVP next (after creating payment flow)

Contacted 3 beta users for testimonials to go onto the landing page

Updated landing page with demo, pricing and sign up link!

- Added a demo page with linked Google Sheet so that customers can check it out how it works
- Added pricing US$10/m
- Added a link to the queue form
- Added a caveat in the footer re: the raw html aesthetic to make a statement why it's so minimalist

Created queue form as a way to manage new sign-ups, since nothing is automated as yet

Fixed MRR column header bug

User should be able to switch from "MRR" to "ARR" / "Revenue" or whatever column header one wants to use. It was previously hardcoded in one of the functions, now it just reads whatever the text is in the column headers (for the "Months" column too)

Changed CTA button to single color (no more gradients) to prevent weird color renders/matching or downright not working... thanks @nerdbasis for feedback!

Added v-if to section headers so that if blank it won't be displayed - thanks @ryu for the feedback!

Added spinner when page is loading - thanks @ryu for feedback!

Half-fixed bug for email contact

Not elegant fix... just adding a note in the cell to instruct users to add "mailto:" to their email if using emails as contact link.

Tried to find a Javascript solution for it but hard to cover all possibilities...

Onboarded another new beta user @ryu !

Updated 3 users' pages to new version with progress bars and charts

MVP is 90% ready for launch soon!

Remaining tasks:
- fix gradient bug
- pin down landing page design (how to use html vibe but not hurt conversion??)
- confirm pricing
- payment gateway

Probably something nocode, a 3rd party payment provider like Payhere or Gumroad (still exploring)
