I was thinking about targeting small businesses, or something along those lines, that wouldn't might paying more for less hassle.
But the main goal is that I want to get something up and running so I understand the whole process of launching a web app. at the end of the day, I'm hoping to get 1 or 2 customers.
PS, You're pricingbot.co website looks so amazing!
Two reasons. First and foremost, $4.99 lifetime is it enough to support a customer forever. You have servers to maintain, a customer support team to pay, and also you have to put food on the table. I’m pretty against “lifetime” and “unlimited lol pricing for hosted software.
Second, pricing is a signal. By pricing extremely low you’re going to attract people who care about getting the lowest price possible and from personal lived experience these are basically the worst, most demanding customers.
I was thinking that I would start with $5 for a lifetime while I see if anyone would be interested in the idea, then maybe expanding to $5 a month.
But Yeah, I could see that, you would attract customers that would keep demanding more and more unless they will leave. That could have been a bit of a mistake.
So I'll up it to $15 per month, Thank you for your help Pete :)
Spelling Mistakes:
I'm so surprised that people read those little text blurbs. Personally, I never do, but you're 100% right, I'll fix that up asap!
Lack of detail:
You must have a very good eye for detail to notice the scroll thing! But thank you, It'll add a lot more detail into the website to explain each part!
Stripe Integration:
For now I was thinking of using stripe as a base since I don't want to be in-charge of security for credit cards.
Annual or One-time:
The site is currently set up for a one time payment to use the software just because it's a bit buggy and unstable.
There's petty little information here. What exactly does this do that Stripe subscriptions does not? Also unrelatedly, would anyone recommend using This/Chargebee/Recurly when Stripe already has subscriptions built in?
Hey Sam,
Thanks for your feedback I was thinking a lot of people that don't want the hassle of setting up stripe subscriptions, thus these services normally make it easier?

Can you have annual subscriptions? One-time payment subscriptions? It's not clear. If not, why not?
What are scrolls? Who is Heath Logan Campbell and why does he want to chat with me?
Does this require Stripe? "Stripe Integration" implies it's optional.
