Abroad.Legal vs Lean Startup Stack

To help job seekers multiply their chances of being hired abroad, we created a database of companies that accept workers from foreign countries and provide support in obtaining work visas and permits.

Every year millions of people seek job opportunities abroad in developed economies. They spend tons of time applying for positions they will never be hired for. The reason is that the majority of companies don't consider foreign candidates. But there is no way to know it in advance.

To help job seekers multiple their chances to be hired abroad, we created a database of companies that accept workers from foreign countries, sponsor their visas, and provide support in obtaining work visas and permits.
All the candidate needs is to pay for a subscription that grants full access to the list of 10 thousand companies and a hundred thousand open positions in 40 countries, including the USA and Canada, the UK, Sweden, Norway, and others.
Each of them is hand-picked and verified by our team. We regularly update our records and remove closed positions. We also help subscribers increase their chances of getting a job by guiding them in how to build a resume and prepare for an interview. We return money in case the visa rejection.

We launched the MVP five months ago, targeting job seekers from Eastern Europe, and met a great demand. We got about 60,000 visits and reached a 10% sign-up to paid subscriber conversion rate.
Our next stage is launching the service in India, where about 18 million people search for jobs abroad yearly, and most speak English. We're planning to launch the English version of the product this year. We also see a lot of potential in Bangladesh, the Philippines, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Mexico, Brazil, and other markets.

Years of the pandemic revealed the acute need for foreign human resources in developed economies. Many industries suffer from a shortage of workers, and companies are happy to accept foreign employees.
In the USA, for example, there were 10 million unfilled jobs in 2021, and only 8.4 million workers were looking for new opportunities. This not going to change for the better. The developed economies will need more and more workers from abroad, and the candidates from developing countries will continue to look for a better life there.

We are a team of 6 professionals with experience in web development, database building, marketing, design and project management.

We are seeking 450,000 euros for 10% of our company. The money will allow us to launch in India and get to other markets faster. Our goal is to become the number one source of information about jobs overseas.

Free and cheap resources for bootstrapping startup founders.

This is a simple website, adapted from an article I published 4 months ago, expanding on this concept of a Lean Startup Stack for bootstrapping founders to use for getting shit done.

There are so many software options in every category nowadays that it can be hard to find the right ones. For bootstrapping founders, it is the struggle of finding inexpensive or free ones.

About four months ago I wrote an article called The Lean Startup Stack: Free Software Products for Bootstrapping Startups. Since then, I've received lots of great feedback and support surrounding the article, so I figured I would put a little more time into refining it.

This simple website, if you could even call it a website, contains my preferred software products and resources for running a startup in its early stages.

The Lean Startup Stack includes legal, operations, tech, design, marketing, and financial software products and resources. The best part, other than most of the Stack being free, is that you don’t have to sacrifice quality, security, or even brand name when using the Lean Startup Stack. Many of the products listed are made, and used, by multi-billion dollar companies.

I hope you enjoy it and please feel free to reach out to me with suggestions for improvements.
