I does not scale well compared to what? I might scale poorly compared to your average social network silicon valley mobile app startup, but it scales well compared to any other small business. He does not need a physical space and there are almost no other fixed costs. Also I feel he is using his "computer skills" to gain a competitive advantage by doing SEO and he also has an original brand. If he was able to replace his full time job in 4 month, he should be able to grow enough in a year time to hire someone to do most of the annoying administrative work for him.
Sure building a photo app and selling to Facebook would be cooler. I guess everyone has to figure out for themselves what they want from life.
- localcasestudy 15y agoYeah we'll see. I don't even know if I want to scale at all. Seriously if I could double current earnings within this year, quit my job, help my family, (use some extra money to diversify a bit) I'm good.
- sopooneo 15y agoI agree with your sentiment. I feel that a massive part of the potential for startups is in doing boring, everyday things much better. If there are already lots of providers that means there are already lots of potential customers.
