No pitch
I don't sell you anything. I don't follow up. I don't slide into your messages. If you never contact me, you never hear from me again.

Seven flavors. Made to order. Usually sold out before the afternoon is over. Thousands of people follow the Facebook page — they still had to guess where the truck would be parked. Now they don't.
Never asked for it. Owes nothing. If he doesn't want it, it's gone today. No questions. No hard feelings.
How this works
02
No catch
The site is free and it stays free. Want it taken down? Say the word and it's gone the same day, no charge, no questions.
03
No name
You'll probably never find out who did this. That part isn't the point. The point is that you make something good and nobody could find you.
Currently lurking
He'll be somewhere in this crowd.
Nobody gets told beforehand. If you're selling something good at one of these and your website is a Facebook page, keep an eye on your notifications.

Page four of Google, behind three places that closed.

You pick the target
Who's getting the next one?
Not a specific business — a kind of one. Vote for what I go hunting for next, and I'll find somebody worth it.
Votes point me somewhere. They don't decide it — I still do the homework and pick. Anything that doesn't win rolls into the next round.
The bankroll
Every hero needs a Wayne.
Nobody who gets one of these pays for it, and nobody ever will. But the domains, the hosting and the days don't come from nowhere — so if you want to be the reason somebody's bakery turns up on Google next month, this is how.
A domain
About $10 a year, each
Hosting
Small per site, forever, and it adds up
A day
Finding somebody, doing the homework, building it
Fund the next one
No tiers, no perks, no name on a wall. It goes straight into building the next one for somebody who'd never have asked.
Know somebody who makes something goodbut has nowhere to send people?
