Haha. Man. I am still doing all this myself. Good thing I am a Sr Software Engineer lmao. One day… The struggle is real when you try to do it without outside investors. I did approach a couple a few years back. Apparently sweat equity isn’t a thing. 😂

Business phones (VoIP)… for businesses is no small niche. My competitors are multi-billion dollar companies. The only true competitor I see is voip.ms. The others are just bloatware.
So far, none. Pushing 500 sign ups now. All legit. Going after the voipms market ;)
This is interesting. While I am in a completely different sector, I get probably 10-20 new sign ups on Sipharmony.com a week. “Conversion” happens when they add a card, choose or port a number, and start using the system.
But out of those signup numbers, maybe 5% do anything. I am currently putting together a survey campaign to see what’s up!
1·2 years agoStripe has something like this. They even have data on “Recovered Money” and a score for each customer you add. I think they simply look up by CC though. But it’s something!
I soft launched Sipharmony.com in 2020. Not a horrible idea. I guess it really depends on what your business is. Is it B2C? Is it B2B? What would do well, during a crash? B2B is extremally tough. No matter what the market looks like.
We are Sipharmony.com. A cost effective VoIP provider for your small business! Check us out!
Pizza shop, oil change shop, or a small storage facility. For sure.
LOL! So many come to me (a Sr Software Engineer) and try to get me to do these things and “automate” it. I caved in and I am adding to my portal.
I started and programmed Sipharmony.com by myself and JUST started rolling out a fully automated drop shipping Marketplace. I’ll let you know how it goes. I don’t do a thing. My distributor has a full blown API. Listing products and even ordering/shipping API endpoints. All I do is collect payment. The entire marketplace is fully ran by the API. I just make API calls and style the response.
I am not optimistic about it, but at least it’s another “whistler or bell”.
Go with 3.
With 2, you’ll throw yourself into an endless money pit and now YOU’LL get to understand why their SLA’s are lacking. Without proper developer management understanding and planning, you’ll speed much much more money.
Sadly, you’re just going to have to start all over :(
