Built extension in a weekend, sold for 6 figures in 5 hours

I built my first Chrome extension, Merch Batch Editor, in a weekend, and it earned over $3,000. Merch Wizard came later as a separate, bigger MVP that took about three months to build. Years after launching Merch Wizard, I listed the business on Empire Flippers and it sold at full asking price in 5 hours.

The Weekend Build

Chrome extensions are great for quick validation. Merch Batch Editor, my first paid chrome extension, was built and shipped in a single weekend and started getting users immediately.

Multiple Products

I built a portfolio of micro-SaaS products, including Merch Wizard as a bigger, roughly 3-month MVP. Total revenue exceeded $500K+ from subscriptions plus exit.

Built to Sell

From day one, I built with exit in mind. Clean code, documentation, and transferable assets made the eventual sale smooth.

• First weekend build (Merch Batch Editor): earned $3,000+
• Merch Wizard MVP: ~3 months to build
• Time to sell Merch Wizard/KDP Wizard on Empire Flippers: 5 hours at asking price (years after building)
• Total earnings: $500K+ (subs + exit)
