Appbackr, Finance your app - Wholesale digital marketplace
- peteysd 17y agoThere isn't any information about the people behind appbackr on your site. I would never enter into a financial agreement with a completely unknown entity. I think you need to personalize the site - let us know who exactly we're dealing with. Other than that - it's an interesting concept. I think the description of how it works could be made clearer, but it's an interesting idea.
- appbackr 17y agoThanks for your comment. We created the site on a very tight deadline where we had to code everything in 45 days to meet the PayPalX deadlines. We will add some information about who we are. My name is Trevor Cornwell. Here is my Linked profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorcornwell http://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorcornwell and I am on Facebook at facebook.com/cornwell and twitter.com/appbackr I hope that you'll follow our progress. If you'd like to meet come to to: peerfinancingny.eventbrite.com
- makethings 17y agoWe are starting work on a revised public experience soon. Are there any sites that you like in terms of personality and how they communicate?
- earle 17y agoYou cant see anything without signing up...........
- appbackr 17y agoWe are keeping it as a closed beta through our launch on May 17. We built the site quickly and as a very small team we had to get all the agreements in place/UI/etc before we are ready to go public. Feel free to email me at trevor at appbackr.com if you have any questions.
- mikecane 17y agoI don't need an account at something like Kickstarter to see what people are looking to fund. It should be the same here. Otherwise it looks shady.
- appbackr 17y agoWe are keeping the site invitation only so that we can make sure that we have all of the UI right; the legal agreements in place and be able to address questions like yours before we have a big audience. We are a very small team who did this on a small budget. Please follow our progress at twitter.com/appbackr or see my story at http://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorcornwell http://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorcornwell. If you'd like to learn more come meet us in NY at peerfinancingny.eventbrite.com
- bryanh 17y agoCool idea, a little shady though. I mean, why would you use jpg for a graphic like this? http://appbackr.com/images/step-ideas.jpg http://appbackr.com/images/step-ideas.jpg </complaint>
- bmelton 17y agoWhile I completely agree that JPG is the wrong choice for what is essentially a 2-color graphic, what about that makes it shady?
- appbackr 17y agoA guy who I respect named Ben Kutil did the design for the appbackr home page. http://make-things.com/ http://make-things.com/ Let me know why the .jpg makes us look shady. twitter.com/appbackr trevor at appbackr.com Thanks, Trevor Cornwell, Founder, appbackr inc.
- makethings 17y agoJPG was actually the smallest file size for that graphic because of the texture of the background and the ragged edges,though I haven't looked at those file sizes since that page launched.
- makethings 17y agoI think it makes uslook sketchy, not shady </badjoke>
