Entrepreneurship 3.0
- bikamonki 12y agoEntrepreneurship 4.0 Maybe founders don't want to be rich inventing the next FB, maybe they are looking for quasi-passive income that is good enough to live a good life. If this is the case, maybe they do not need millions of users, maybe a handful of local paying users will do. This is my gamble lately: the infra service providers (PAAS, BAAS) must be huge corporations (AWS, Google, etc) in order to offer high quality yet cheap/free services, but entrepreneurs can be small and local. Using the same analogy as the article, new IT entrepreneurs can be the real estate agent of the 90's: working a small local market while making a decent living. I have been testing my gamble for a year now, I have 3 products already bringing income, all 3 were developed very fast as side projects using all the BAAS/PAAS services out there; most of such services are free or very cheap, so the only capital expense was my time and a domain name, so every dollar that comes in is net profit. The sad news is that there won't be Entrepreneurship 5.0 :( Bots will be doing free and perfect software in a few years...
