My favorite question/answer so far: Question: this search engine sucks Answer: Agreed. It dοes less, nοt mοre, than the οld οne. Edited to add I like the concept, I was just playing around with searches. Not trying to be negative.

Yeah, I hear you. Reminds me of Keith Ferrazzi's Holiday card fiasco. Someone got three different holiday cards from him and they all had different signatures, lol. (From Never Eat Alone)

Not really sure how to scale it except to have different people making a few extra bucks writing letters around the country - crowdsourcing type of thing w/o any specialized knowledge.

Aren't payment processors a pain? From my experiences, they make you create terms of service for every web app no matter how tiny. Are there ways around this and what do you suggest?

Why don't you guys use performable or unbounce to test demand before building the product? Do some customer development, see if there's a real need, and see if/what people are willing to pay for what you build. It's really be a waste of tim

SEO should not be "the strategy", it should be one of many customer acquisition tools in the startup toolkit. I also believe that the notion that you can't have a great user interface and optimize for SEO at the same time is wrong. Well op

I'm fully booked, but I am quite interested in the customer development steps you've taken to validate your hypotheses. Also interested in the changes you've made from you original idea based on what you've learned.

I agree. The margins on this are pretty terrible, and it's not a long term scalable model, but I think it's an easy way to get a foothold in the market. Here's my thinking (please feel free to tear my logic apart): (1a) The very small new

I'd also like to add that well targeted magazine ads can even ad value. Who is to see this can't translate to email newsletters?

Thanks for the link. I just visited and toyed around. I hate to be "that guy", but I didn't really love it. Does anyone here use Hey Amigo? What do you think? Good results?

Great point. It'll be a solid way for me to gain some domain expertise at the same time.

Great points. 1.) It gave me a realization that I may not be the best person to execute this, but I can sure as hell give it a shot. 2.) I can do this in the short term to prove there's an issue, but it's not scalable. With that being sai

I guess it come from reading investor's startup blogs. I'm going to do the 37 signals thing and try to do as much as I can until it's not physically possible. If I was raising investment (plan Z), I'd try to find a team member with ad sale

Great points. From lean startups & cust dev principles, I think you should start charging from day one. Well, the margins would come from venture backed startups looking for high growth. I am also a huge fan of lean, so personally, I'd

I don't think I agree about massive market. There's a large # of newsletter publishers that don't advertise. Thing of every SaaS newsletter promoting their own sales, Best Buy and their newsletters, Groupon doesn't directly advertise (thi

What's the purpose of including the entire bill? They also left out some key details: (1) Who paid? (2) How much did they tip?

Thanks for the comment nedwin. If nothing else, I'd like to at least make it easier for startups and small companies to have somewhere to find what these requirements are. Maybe this ends with howtosubscribe.com being a labor of love to he
