I wrote about this not long ago on my blog: http://www.forouzani.com/would-you-pay-2x-for-a-10x-develope... I think the short answer is that startups should be hiring for 10X devs, without having to raise their prices. But, in the real wo

Although I agree - I'm not sure this is monetizable. The real question - are these people willing to pay $500 to say "Look ma...."?

Why why why? Why would you do this? This is wrong in so many ways!

The service is a good MVP - now it's time to beef up the features. I have a friend who is working on a very similar product - it will be launched sometime in the next few weeks... keep an eye out for competition ;)

There is definitely some resistance to paying for travel information when so much of it is available for free - I totally agree with you on that. However, our product is more aimed at short trips, where investing in lots of time to research

Thanks for the suggestions. We are currently giving our itinerary authors 75% of the sales - and that has got the word out a bit (just not enough I guess). Trying to build a social community is something we should possibly try, but it will

We have done many tests with Adwords - our margins are tiny, and adwords doesn't seem to work for us. We are still testing this, but we are not even close - we are many, many miles away. I'm sure we are missing something with adwords, but w

Thanks for the great ideas - some of our thinking has been along the same lines. One of our biggest barriers is funds, which means we have to push as hard and fast as we can before we are totally depleted. Design is something on our list, b

Well the idea was to build a marketplace in the hope that we would get lots of different itineraries for each location, with each one tackling the city from a different angle. It would be up to the individuals to write itineraries how they

Ask HN: We were told our idea is amazing, but our startup is failing - what now?

The microsoft stack does work quite well, but usually for 50+ staff. For less than 50 the cost of administration becomes a disproportional overhead. I take vendor lock-in with a grain of salt... if the solution works well, the lock-in (almo

Thanks for the great feedback. We have just recently launched the second version of our platform, which allows for interactive itineraries, but if you want to "take it away" with you, it still needs to be downloaded as a PDF. We are in the

Bad PR always seems to get instant action - it's more damage control than anything else. If you have an audience, you have PR power.

I agree - time tracking on a granualar level is very high friction and ends up being a waste of time. Better to focus on things that bring more ROI, like product. Unless your billing on an hourly basis, chances are that counting hours is to

If someone in your company is screwing up, you always want to know. Now whether you want to take action or not, may vary depending on the situation. Sometimes it's a difference of opinion - if you are getting lots of applications, should th

if you reveal the traits the typically reflect a bad apple, the bad apples will simply make sure they adapt to hide their traits (or innocent apples with these traits may start questioning themselves). Either way, Im not sure the net effect
