Purposefully not building software but cold calling 100 businesses in my niche. Starting at 1 call per day for 10 days, then 2 calls per day for 10 days, then 2 conversations per day for 10 days, and scaling up until I reach 100 calls. Exposure therapy as well as product discovery wrapped in one.
There's already billions of businesses for referral and affiliate marketing with Stripe: Rewardful, PromoteKit, Branch.io, Viral Loops, +∞ more...
I don't see any specifically targeted towards iOS app developers. At a very high level you would need to integrate a few APIs:
- App Store Connect API to generate referral codes on demand
- App Store Server API to verify receipts
Is this a niche hole in the market? I'm assuming companies like Dropbox and Uber do it in-house, but is there no solution or demand for "In-App Purchase Referrals" specifically?
I have a lot of experience in iOS app development and over the years of working on countless projects and at several different companies (obligatory ex-Googler, Gmail iOS mention), I have developed templates, frameworks, extensions, etc... all which make business development on the iOS platform as fast as possible. It's what I use to spin up idea fast.
That being said, I've started getting everything production-ready and I wanted to ask you for feedback on my landing page: https://ideatoapp.xyz
I know most of you are extremely tech savvy, so you might not be my target audience, but still I would appreciate your feedback on this idea. Thanks.
My wife and I are always sharing our Google Maps lists with our friends who are visiting or traveling to countries where we have been to. Whenever anyone asks for recommendations we spend so much time curating our recommendations to what we know their preferences are.
So I figured why not make it ultra simple to search, filter, and sort our already comprehensive list of restaurants, bars and coffee shops.
I started working on an AI-empowered subtitle editor in 2020 before the GPT boom. The idea was great but unfortunately my work-status didn't allow me to launch. So I waited until everything was proper, and then launched Double Subtitles late 2023.
I'm trying to figure out how to get my first customers.
A few differentiators with Double Subtitles are:
1. The speech-to-text response time is industry leading
2. It supports up to 1 hour long videos while most competitors support 5-10 minutes max
