Finding someone to give you feedback is a pain in the butt.
And Twitter Influencers keep regurgitating the same generic advice every day 🤷
There's nobody to guide you
😑
Its easy to get stuck in a rut
How do you prioritize tasks?
Which aspect of your business do you focus on the most?
What are next 3 steps you should be taking?
You struggle to gain clarity
Your community is here to help...
🤗 We understand your challenges. we've been there, done that and want to help you.
🤔 We will give you honest feedback so you can be true to your business.

A support system for independent entrepreneurs
Founder, SiteGPT and Feather.so
"Indie Masterminds is 100% worth the price.I was skeptical going in, because I don't know the people that are in the mastermind. So I didn't think I would get anything out of it. But because Ayush created this,I wanted to give it a shot and
it is 100% worth it.""⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Co-founder, Hirevire
"Joined for the indie mastermind.
Stayed for the community. Ayush spends a lot of time gathering indie opportunities and lessons for this small group of like minded folks.10/10 will recommend you join the community."⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Founder, BoltAThread
"Ayush has been instrumental in my journey to becoming an indie hacker. He’s provided great resources and always provided me in the right direction for any problems. Very hard to find active and helpful communities and this one has been a good experience. I fully support joining this community to get ahead further in your path to financial freedom."⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Creator, Cognition
"There are only a few paid communities that offer 3-5x value of what we invest - and Ayush's community is one among the high-value communities. I am mostly active in deep work sessions and monthly community calls, which help me follow a routine for creatively demanding tasks and keep my goals in check. The members are cool - I am lucky enough to collaborate with a couple of 'em on projects. The community listens to your ideas and more importantly, shows you solutions to become better. If a friend has a limited budget and can only invest in one community, I'd point them here.""⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Founder, Troves AI
"Of all the indie hacker/founder communities, this is the one I frequent the most. Members are humble and yet there's many success stories. There's a strong sense of community and regular group video sessions for co-working, masterminds etc."⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Founder, VideoToBe
"Fantastic community with Ayush leading the way. Weekly co-working sessions and the cohorts are integral part of this community. The right amount of criticism and encouragement. I am bootstrapping a product and this community is instrumental in its growth.."⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
B2B Creator and Meta alum
"I've really enjoyed the Indie Masterminds group. It's small but mighty.
Members are active and share openly, making the community engaging. Ayush pushes us to set monthly goals and hold us accountable for our deliverables.
The group is diverse. Some work on their projects full-time, others part-time. This mix helps when doubts creep in. Sharing fears and challenges makes us feel connected and understood.
The small wins channel is inspiring.
It shows everyone's progress and motivates us to keep going despite the struggles.
This community is about building something meaningful and gaining freedom in our lives. We grow by helping each other grow.
Thanks to this community for the support and inspiration""⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Founder, BulkMockup.com
"I have been on the internet space for last 10 years.
I was always at lookout for a community like this. I have been part of few other communities,
but indie masterminds stand outs among others.
It stands out in terms of value, connection and guidance you get from other members.
I wish I could have joined sooner."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Co-founder, Hirevire
""I would highly recommend Indie Mastermind,
if you are serious about building products.
I like these especially -
- Sessions on Marketing ideas & validations
- Fellow creator 's problem & how they approach in the hot seat sessions
- Action focused mini sprints
On top of all these,
Ayush is a friendly & straightforward person,
whom we can rely upon for Accountability & Validations""⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"The Indie mastermind community fast-tracks your journey to achieving your goals. In a few weeks after joining, I finished my MVP and had two sales calls with potential customers and I also had a lot of 'aha' moments while talking to Ayush and fellow indie hackers. It's amazing how accountable you are to yourself with the help of your fellow community members, which is one of the reasons why I've subscribed again to be part of the community."⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Why does this community exist?
More authenticity, less chest thumping!
Every social media platform today is flooded with "influencers" shouting from the rooftops about their glorious achievements. Their only goal - to extract as much money out of you as possible.Unfortunately, social media algorithms are designed in such a way that the loudest voices win out.There is no space left for honest, real conversations. Heck, if you don't have a thousand followers, it almost feels like you're shouting in the void like a crazy person.Social media isn't social anymore!The only solution is to form small communities like this one. We're algorithm free, conducive to honest conversations and encourage free flowing exchanges.Doesn't matter if you have 1 follower or a million.We're a community of equals. There is no influencer lecturing you from a podium. We're just a bunch of peers learning from each other.No one is here to grow their following.No one is here to sell their product to you.No one is here to thump their chest like gorilla.We're all here for authentic human connection.The question is - are you interested in authentic human connection?

Hey there 👋 I am Ayush, I'm a Founder, Writer and a Creator-Entrepreneur.
I quit corporate slavery back in August 2021 and since then I've built 12 products and 3 service businesses. I am also the creator of SuperFrameworks, the co-founder of Elephas App and the co-founder of BestPMJobs
I strongly believe in the power of community to help us become better entrepreneurs, and better people!
Which is why I started the Indie Masterminds community.
It's a safe space for creative entrepreneurs to come together and learn and grow with each other.
If that sounds interesting to you, then come join us.
FAQs
Do you offer purchasing power parity?
Yes, we offer discounts based on location and income levels. Use the chat icon in the bottom right corner to ask for a discount code
Why is this paid? I can just join a free community.
When you're not paying for something, you are the product being sold.Most free communities are promotion zones where people are only looking to build an audience and grow their business at the cost of YOUR attention.Indie Masterminds has a single purpose - Growing your business.3 more benefits to joining the community:1. It filters out people who are not serious about their business 🤷
2. It keeps you accountable (you learn more from something when you have paid for it, yes it's human psychology 🧠)
3. It can pay for the host's time and effort (so the members don't hassle over the logistics all the time)😀
Okay I get it, this is great, but founder communities cost thousands of dollars, why does this cost so less, what's the catch?
No catch. You are early, prices go up every month 😃
What business model do I need to have to benefit from the community?
Any business model can work, but it's good if you fall into these 3 categories -1. Software business (B2B SaaS, B2C consumer products, etc.)
2. Content business (Newsletters, Podcasts, E-books, Courses, etc.)
3. Service business (Freelancing, Agency, Consulting, etc.)If you're not sure of your business model yet, feel free to join, you can use the group to figure out your business model, your offering, and your marketing strategy.
I am an introvert. Will this work for me?
Indie Masterminds is a safe space with fellow like-minded entrepreneurs. You will never feel out of place or uncomfortable.
At what stage of my journey can I join?
At any stage:
- Full-time job but starting a side hustle.
- Pre-idea stage, market research, validating demand.
- Building distribution (A social media audience, newsletter, waitlist, etc.)
- Already have an idea, building the product, taking it to market. No revenue yet.
- Have revenue, looking to grow and scale your business.
You will be assigned a group according to your stage, so you will always have a chance to learn without feeling out of place.
