Petro Hrys: the Helperg.com ecosystem aims to be worth more than $1 billion within three to five years

A billion-dollar bar, set in public

“We want Helperg.com to be valued at over one billion dollars within three to five years,” Hrys says. He presents the figure as the bar the team has set for itself, not as a projection: big goals, he argues, shape big decisions, such as who to hire, which companies to bring in and how high the standards need to be.

We're not starting from zero. We already have products, customers and teams. Now we're multiplying them.

He believes the target is achievable because of the model itself: every new product, every new person and every new company adds to the strength of the whole. “That's how a network grows: slowly at first, and then very fast.”

Why build an ecosystem: alone is hard

The presentation opens with a problem Hrys says he has seen many times and lived through himself. A small company starts with a great idea and a lot of energy, then has to deal with hosting, payments, accounts and logins, analytics, support, marketing, hiring and legal work. None of it is the product it set out to build.

Companies that carry all of this alone grow slowly, spend their resources on infrastructure instead of on the product and the customer, and too often shut down, “not because the idea was bad,” and not because the people were weak. His answer: build the foundation once, build it well, and let everyone stand on it.

What is already inside

Hrys describes Helperg.com today as an aggregator: a family of stores, services, telecom products, apps, analytics and logistics projects. The examples he names:

• Infrastructure and web: Helperg.com, WebmasterID and Cash Workspace
• Telecom: Twin Phone and eSIMky, for second numbers and mobile connectivity
• HR and talent: TalentPartnerID and HRHelperG
• Logistics: LogisticID
• Analytics: Global City Intelligence
• Mobile apps people use every day: PDF, Fax, Printer, Invoice Maker and more

Cash Workspace, where this blog is published, is one of the infrastructure and web products on that list. “The point isn't the list,” Hrys says: very different products, in very different markets, all grow on the same base.

Two pillars: shared infrastructure and one identity

The foundation, as Hrys describes it, rests on two pillars. Helperg.com is the core infrastructure: hosting, services, payments and distribution that a product in the group can use from day one, instead of spending six months setting up servers and payment providers. WebmasterID is the identity and web infrastructure that connects products and users across the ecosystem: “one user, one identity, many products.”

He compares it to a city. Helperg.com is the roads, the power and the water; WebmasterID is the address system that lets everyone find each other; every product is a building. “You don't have to lay your own roads to open a shop. You just build the shop.”

Day to day, Hrys says, the aggregator works by sharing: the same infrastructure under every product, customers who may need another product from the group, data and analytics, and teams across tech, HR, logistics and marketing, plus cross-promotion between products. The result he points to is faster launches, from idea to real customers “in weeks, not years,” and a network in which every new member makes the whole system stronger.

For people: from employee to partner

The first of the two paths in the video is for individuals and has four steps:

1. Join: work as an employee on real products, with real customers.
2. Propose: bring an idea, whether a new app, a new service or a better way to do something the group already does.
3. Launch: if the idea is good, launch it as a product on the existing infrastructure, with hosting, payments, the identity system, customers and teams already in place.
4. Become a partner: as the product grows, you grow with it and become a partner in what you built.

You don't have to quit your job, take a loan and risk everything to become a founder. You can grow into it, step by step, with support around you.

For companies: a controlling stake, and the founder keeps running it

The second path is for companies that already exist. Under the model described in the video, Helperg acquires a controlling stake, usually 60 to 70 percent, while the founder and management team keep 30 to 40 percent. The company joins the Helperg group and plugs into its infrastructure, products, customers and teams; the founder stays on as manager and keeps their name, vision and team.

It's better to own thirty percent of a company that is growing many times over than one hundred percent of a company that is fighting to survive.

When a company joins, Hrys says, it gets four things: infrastructure (hosting, payments, identity and analytics from day one), access to every product in the ecosystem, a shared customer base with cross-promotion, and experienced teams across tech, HR, logistics and marketing.
