I was listening to a Philosophy podcast and a philosopher noted that Artisans were different than merchants. It got me thinking. Are there examples of a solo founders/Engineers being able to make sales?

While I'm often praised for my Engineering abilities/content on my website, I've been unable to profit.

My service is (best in class) helpful to low income people and/or Time Poor people. I have struggled putting up a paywall and made a mere 1600$ in donations over 2 years. Prior to donations I made 1k/yr off book sales.

Any marketing people I hired failed to generate traffic, but I'm starting to consider I simply need sales.

Edit- no I can't post my website, one dictator here doesn't like me. But if you are in the Frugal community, you have visited it.
