$980 Last Month From Scratching His Own Itch

Muiz Rexhepi is the founder of GoBusly, a bus booking service for the Balkans 🚌

couple months ago i was just annoyed cause every time i needed to book a bus here in the balkans it was this whole offline mess. you either had to go to the station, call some random number, or just hope the bus actually shows up. nothing online, nothing simple.

i got tired of it and thought screw it, i’ll just try building my own thing. wasn’t even thinking it would become a “startup” or whatever, i just wanted to make booking easier for myself and maybe a few friends.

fast forward a bit, people actually started using it. last month it pulled in like $980 in revenue and honestly i still can’t believe it. seeing real people paying for something i hacked together to solve my own problem feels unreal.

Muiz is an experienced web developer, but his takeaway is applicable to any aspiring entrepreneur 👇

kinda crazy how sometimes the best ideas are just the annoying everyday problems we deal with ourselves.

Also, I’ve seen platforms like GoBusly in other parts of the world.

Muiz simply built a similar thing for his local area.
