Perhaps I'm just jaded or not "in the know," but this seems like a shallow and short-term business model for a SaaS product. How do you maintain the codebase?

Perhaps I'm just jaded or not "in the know," but this seems like a shallow and short-term business model for a SaaS product. How do you maintain the codebase? Oh, I just go grab a dev on Elance again. What happens when they introduce bugs into the codebase? Elance! OK, cool, that's definitely a long-term solution. Do you perform meaningful A/B testing? Add new features? Do anything to justify the continuous cost of SaaS to the customer? These all seem like things that an actual team would be good at. But again, maybe I'm just too old fashioned or jaded. Also, from "About Us": "Jarrod is a teacher and online entrepreneur whom has built well over 100 online products and services. He blogs regularly about his experiences generating an income online" How can one person who's generated over 100 products be adding any value? How are they maintained? Are they all just one-off, throwaway pieces of software?

  It's an interesting post, but the copy is not very well edited overall. It's certainly part of what makes me question what happens with the quality of his projects beyond the initial sales.

    It sounds like he does market research, marketing, and sales, and pays someone else (probably more detail & quality oriented) to develop the products.

      What's your teaching background, by the way?

        I'm a PE Teacher and have built a loyal following of teachere who get everything I do - I love being able to bring products to life for them, and have spent hundreds of thousands doing it. So this approach has led to me ensuring I don't fail before I invest of bringing things to life. Once I validate it; me and my team are 100% behind it. Thanks for picking up the spelling errors, I truly appreciate it
