🎉 First 2 paying customers! (First dollars EVER from my own software, after 10 years as an engineer)

13h (edited) • 🏆 Wins

I've been a software engineer for a decade. I've built systems that made other companies millions. But until this week, I had never made a single dollar from something I built and owned myself.

That changed. TWO people just paid for Convosparr, my voice AI sales training platform where reps practice live sales calls against AI buyers and get scored feedback.

I know two customers sounds tiny. But this one hits different:

- Someone I don't know found real value in something I imagined, designed, and shipped

- They pulled out their card and voted with their wallet

- The number went from $0 to not $0, and that's the hardest jump there is

Ten years of writing code for a paycheck, and nothing came close to the feeling of that first payment notification. I must have refreshed the dashboard 20 times just to make sure it was real.

To everyone still building toward your first sale: it's worth it. Keep going.

Now the goal is simple: turn 2 into 10. 🚀
