What exactly is the situation? You've got 100 people interested in buying your product based on a landing page.
I take it you were expecting more? How much more? You've got 100ish leads on your project for sales that should be easyish to sell to (at least compared to random people). You won't get it, but if you get all of them at the bottom price, that's $2k a month.
By all accounts, I can only see this as a good thing, especially if your landing page indicates that there's cost involved. If the landing page gives any indication that the service might be free, it's easier to discount some of those leads, but if you're advertising a for-pay service and got 100 hits, I think you're looking pretty good, from my perspective.
- mtrn 16y agoI wasn't expecting anything. I started it, because I had the idea, I saw one dominant competing product which sucked and I just wanted to get a feel for the market. Yes, these leads may be precious. But it's just a desktop app, just a one-time payment. (P.S. If it were a webish app with $20/month price tag and 100 people ready to give it a try, I would be really busy implementing the stuff right now ;)

In which case, consider building a feature or time limited freeware version initially, without support, offering users to buy/upgrade, and submit it to all the shareware/freeware joints out there. That should get you a decent number of potential buyers, a good percentage of which should convert. Test the waters this way and if you still don't get enough numbers, ditch the idea of full commercial version. HTH
