Comment on Show HN: I built a thing

Comments

You've done the easy bit. The hard bit is how to make money. Selling to the apartment owning/building/management industry will be very difficult. The product needs to be a lot more refined. The marketing materials just so. The team selling experienced in the industry. And so on.

Some fights are worth having. If you can find a sidekick who relishes the sales battle then sobeit.

Else consider open sourcing what you've done and move to the next problem.

Is it necessary to sell to landlords? Although B2B is often said to be easier, in this case you're solving a problem that only the residents have, so I would have said B2C is the way to go.

You can also do B2C but have a B2B product. If everyone uses it, landlords/management will see the benefit and be interested.
