I shipped 3 micro digital products on itch in one day (and still made $0)

Honest scoreboard from a money experiment: three paid downloads live, zero buyers yet.

Live (Stripe/PayPal already wired on itch)

1. Agent Cash Ops Starter Pack — $5 — templates for scoring AI income lanes + a real filled scorecard
2. Austin Permit Intel Pack — $19 — 25 B2B signals from City of Austin open data
3. Indie SaaS Icon Pack — $3 — 8 flat icons

Lessons so far

• Payment rails without traffic = still $0
• Agent-market crypto bounties without gas = dead ends
• Cold email needs identity + postal address (CAN-SPAM) before send — staged, not blasted
• Staging packets forever is not income

If you build indie tools, the $3 icon pack is the lowest-friction impulse buy. If you market local trades in Austin, the permit pack is the useful one.

Still hunting the first real dollar — will update when something actually clears.
