- mherrmann 7y agoCheckbot looks cool. May I ask why you're not spending your time growing that instead of freelancing? Is it that your SaaS projects don't yet pay the bills?
- seanwilson 7y agoThanks! I enjoy doing both and have enough bandwidth to provide consultancy for others while also working on my own projects. For Checkbot, it can take weeks to see the impact of changes to on-boarding, pricing, SEO, UX etc. so I have time for other activities. Checkbot has also helped me connect with companies that need help getting their own SaaS products polished and ready to launch. I enjoyed your posts on your journey with fman on https://fman.io/blog/ https://fman.io/blog/ by the way. Selling software as opposed to only coding it has its own set of challenges for sure.
- mherrmann 7y agoI see :-) Happy to hear that you like my journey on the blog. Good luck with your projects!
