How much do you spend on likeness rights for the people or the similar thing for famous monuments?
I think it depends on how the work is produced for celebrities. If it’s a mass produced product and not one off artisan creations, OP might run into problems
I'm one of the cofounders of PriceTable. [1] It has been a side project since 2018 or so. About a year and a half ago I posted about it on HN [2] and back then our revenue was $2,500/mo. We recently passed the $6,000/mo. At this point we have a few very happy customers who make up the bulk of our revenue. We have been trying to grow more, but our challenge is that we haven't been able to figure out a cost-effective w…
Your website does not scream out to me that you are targeting the landscaping market and is a micro-startup going for the same market that the big companies cover so it might be a big hurdle to get the next client.
the genericness of the first few sentences are kinda not idea because they don't capture the "clickbait" nature of your product. you want to enthrall them into checking you out more. "The Perfect Mix of Sales Automation and Operations Management." doesn't really tell me much. "Create quotes in 30 seconds from your phone" or "control your business from anywhere" or whatever does capture my attention more. the headline doesn't have to encompass everything your business does but the subheading should have something like "complete business automation on the go"
getting customers is a hard problem® if it wasn't one of the biggest companies in the world wouldn't be an ad selling company with a swath of ways to deliver ads to you.

Mexicos overall internet presence is literally stuck in the early 2000s. Most business' official website are a Facebook page. In a country of 150M people and growing expat presence, there is a TON of opportunities for software businesses to enter the market. For example: Riviera Maya has no MLS style real estate tracker/listing platform. The entire real estate industry operates on word of mouth, WhatsApp and Facebook…
Is there much of a market, given that they already use the tools mentioned? Genuinely curious. I've always hated sales but would love to work on making existing solutions better.
Right now depending on how much effort you want to spend, you can get a place for $2000 usd a month or $600 a month, for relatively similar unit maybe 20min of walk distance apart. Simply because information does not flow freely.
Airbnb fixed the trust issue and dominated rental market in the last few years. But hefty fees + taxes are making them less and less viable for travelers.
I honestly see a big opportunity to just improve the overall experience. Especially considering Riviera Maya is the fasted growing realestate market in Mexico.
If you're serious about working on something like this, email me (check my profile), let's connect.
A long time ago, I made some Flash games. I recently converted some of them away from Flash and released them together as a desktop game for modern computers. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1458090/Hapland_Trilogy/ I am currently making more than $500 a month from this, although I don't necessarily expect that to continue. Games are a crowded market. It was a fun project, though.
I started doing some monetization experiment recently, and already got $500+ now.

I keep running into this in the US in large cities. Really well regarded restaurants or music venues do everything through FB and insta. I don't have either of those apps, and I don't remember my passwords from a decade ago. Isn't there a service somewhere, where you give someone some pictures of your food, and restaurant, and you get a container and credentials for a webpage that handles reservations, takes pickup o…
Because Facebook is simple. Any one can update it, and it doesn't go down, and it doesn't cost anything. I've many times seen web presences fail for small organizations, when the only person that understands the web set up leaves. With Facebook, that doesn't happen. I'm sure there are services such as you describe, and probably many restaurants use them, and it's not obvious. But Facebook is the default.

What's the programming language and environment to run it for the non-flash version?
Details in this wonderful little article (which i think i read via HN but it came up in a search easily just now) https://foon.uk/how-flash-2022/
He says in the discussion that porting the games from flash took 3 years. I'm aware that sometimes a single bog post can be the result of a lot of work, but that's next level!
I built https://chatgpt4google.com which is a browser extension that enhance search engines with ChatGPT. It got over 500k users in less than two months. I started doing some monetization experiment recently, and already got $500+ now.
