Sounds like every story I’ve heard from out-of-the-box saas solutions that are very close to what you need…directories and such. Legal actions will get you nothing, the end goal is to always use them as a crutch until you can make it yourself.

Really hard unless your idea is killer and you bring a lot to the table. All developers are slammed with build my idea for free offers.

Use that money, to start multiple passive income saas business. I’m just sitting on amazing domains waiting for some of my equity from previous companies to sell, so I go full steam ahead of my saas and amazing business.

Or start an Amazon business with that 100k of that and make way more.

If it’s actually a good idea with potential, then just sell it and do something you care about.

As a UX Designer for 18 years. I can tell you that anyone who says it’s not as important or to use these terrible ai tools or software like wix are pretty bad ideas. Including B2B and other areas where people think it’s not as important, are wrong.

Sure you don’t want to go overkill, but for a couple grand you can have a badass design on WordPress in a few days if you can get more of the content prepared.

Fork over a little money for a professional landing page and it will help nearly every metric of the business. Not just conversion rates but a million other factors like making connections, investors, partnerships, reviews, customer satisfaction, brand awareness, how often your site gets shared etc etc etc.

I did this early in my career and it’s pointless. Execution is everything. You don’t need equity in a bunch of dead projects.

This is what I’m struggling with. It’s about to explode now that I’m approved to send everything I own to Amazon. I just can’t decide what’s fair based on projections vs today’s revenue
