marclou shared the follow-up to the tattoo marketing stunt: jayhoovy bought the short film for $20,000, and the QR code on the tattoo turned out to be scannable after all.\n\nA fun coincidence: the tattoo artist Enes is himself an indie hacker, running a small SaaS that automates Pinterest traffic with AI and makes about $500/mo, listed on TrustMRR. He delivered the tattoos to the hotel in person, and everything was printed twice as backup.
