π Indie Growth Day β October 10
Published 2025-10-06
Iβm proposing a new day for all indie hackers: Indie Growth Day β every October 10.
A day where we pause, look back, and celebrate the milestones weβve earned β however small or big.
π‘ Why October 10?
Because $10K MRR is the milestone that started it all.
Itβs the north star most indie hackers aim for β not because of the money,
but because it means you made something people actually pay for.
$10K = freedom.
$10K = validation.
$10K = proof that your ideas, persistence, and weird experiments actually worked.
π How to Celebrate
Share your growth story β the messy, honest one.
Post your numbers, even if itβs $0 β $100.
Thank the people who gave you feedback, tested your product, or tweeted your launch.
Reflect on what really moved the needle this year.
Letβs make October 10 a yearly ritual for the indie community.
A day not of hype β but of progress.

One small rep a day. One real user at a time.
And if you havenβt yet, read the TenK Manifesto:
