comment Should small start-up partners record purchases in initial phase?
I'm not sure that it actually makes sense to own 75% of the company, however he definitely should be entitled to the amount he spent plus some amount for the risk he took.

comment Is making a product free a valid sales strategy?
"The hung up on something else" part is a huge (expensive) problem to solve. There are subtle network effects at play, making our software more valuable the more businesses use it. I think we'll have businesses begging us to take their money if enough are using it for free

comment Is making a product free a valid sales strategy?
These are relatively small businesses, most of them are in the $500k - 2m range in yearly revenue, so I would think that level of spending should matter. Our current prices work out to be about $5k/year, which many prospects think is far too much, however, a lot of the other prospects are willing to pay, but are hung up on something else.

comment Location Specific Domain Name?
If what shows on screen changes drastically with the locale the user is in, it makes sense to have those at different URLs for SEO reasons. We use IP addresses to guess which locale to send our users too

comment When to compete on an idea?
Ideally, you would have competition - big profitable competition - but you would have an idea that serves the same market, but with a much better product.

comment Software product with very limited support or without it, what is better?
I think you can have documentation (and accompanying videos) without calling that support. That's something you almost certainly need.

Who else has done things in that vertical? Who invested in them?
