<p>Get Budget Sheet: https://www.budgetsheet.net/</p><p>Vance Twitter: https://twitter.com/vlucas</p><p>Indie Worldwide website: https://indieworldwide.co/</p><p>Indie Worldwide on Twitter: https://twitter.com/indie_worldwide</p><p>Anthony on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnthonyCastrio</p><p><br></p><p>Why’d you decide to build on top of Google Sheets?</p><p><br></p><p>“I'm a developer, a long time developer. I'm not that great at marketing. I was looking for a marketplace that had some existing leverage that I could use.”</p><p><br></p><p>Vance, you joined Indie Worldwide as part of the 100 in 100 challenge last year. Why?</p><p><br></p><p>“That leaderboard gaming kind of mentality, it made me want to focus more on new sign-ups “</p><p><br></p><p>You already have a highly paid full-time job. What inspired you to start this in the first place?</p><p><br></p><p>“It's just something I wanted to exist. I tried three or four budgeting apps before I built this, but I got to a point where it was like five clicks to edit a transaction category. And I was just like, oh my gosh, if this was in a spreadsheet, I could just do this in seconds.”</p><p><br></p><p>Have you made any friends at Indie Worldwide?</p><p><br></p><p>“There’s a couple people who reached out with other Google Sheets add-ons. One in particular helped me with an issue and gave me their sample code. I did not expect that! I’ve had some offers to buy BudgetSheet too, but I’m not interested in selling.”</p><p><br></p><p>Everybody has a number. What would you sell for today?</p><p><br></p><p>“If someone offered me an insane number that wouldn't even be worth paying for what it is right now, then maybe, but the market is big enough. I think there's an opportunity for this to be a multimillion dollar business. I have the money that I need right now from my full-time job. So for now I'm growing it on the side until I can kind of step over. And that's my plan. I want to work for myself.”</p><p><br></p>
