This site is terrible. I had to click through 2 popups just to have access to the site (the vaccinated one and the email one). I assumed the vaccinated one was for cookies at first. I get the gimmick, but I think it will work against you in the long run. The actual site UI itself is fine, but the content is not.

Also, you’re about 2 years too late to try to brand based off vaccinations, it hasn’t been trendy for a long time, and it’s somewhat cringe worthy.

I can’t figure out what your site is about. There’s a header that mentions a non profit, I couldn’t find any description. You need an about page. My best guess is you sell pro vaccination merchandise?

Also, I think your products are quite ugly. It’s really easy to brand an article of clothing nowadays, and it’s a highly competitive space. You’re selling cheap looking products at a premium - 32 dollars for a t shirt? Yet your product photos are poorly photoshopped text on a stock photo?

You needed the momentum of all the mum’s bragging about getting double boosted or whatever that died 2 years ago. Maybe you have some more work to do to implement your idea that I don’t see, but I think this is one of those ideas that you just need to put down.

Try bubble io - it’s a no code platform that will probably serve you well for a simple application such as that, I don’t think Shopify/WordPress would do it (they’re more for ecom/landing pages).

I disagree with the people saying you should outsource. If your idea/business revolves around the technology and the technology is not just an accessory to a brick and mortar business/service - you will inevitably need in house tech.

Outsourcing is viable for the MVP, as it will enable you to test the PMF. However, that’s generally not a justifiable expense for data collection (tens of thousands).

The software company may maintain and update the project for you, but it’s always going to be more expensive than having your own tech, and they will have a lesser grasp of your vision. You are eventually going to need a CTO, and can save yourself a lot of trouble by arranging that earlier rather than later.

How do you find one? Developer friends or family that you can convince of your vision are a good start. Otherwise, I’d conduct a lot of research on the problem, the solution, and the PMF so you have something to prove your vision to a developer you don’t know.

If you have time and just want to develop simple web apps, you can probably just learn yourself. But depends how you define simple.

“Execution” involves development of the product. Most often people using the phrase “ideas are worthless” are directing it towards people with nothing more than an idea and perhaps a little bit of basic Google research looking for those qualified to create the main aspects of the MVP, e.g. someone with an app idea but no development or marketing experience.

It seems that you didn’t just have an idea, you had the product (including patents). That is worth something even if you haven’t commercialized it just yet, and I’d argue that you had a business already given the parents.

You’re young which means you probably don’t have a huge amount of experience or large skillset. You will probably lose a lot of money in development. You can try bubbleio for the MVP if you’re tech savvy, but I strongly believe that a tech business needs a tech founder.

At 21 without a proven track record, you may struggle to find that. Look at it this way - you’re going to people asking for their hard earned money for an idea. An idea is worthless.

I could get your service for $1, it’s called flipping a coin

Truth is as an Indian you are automatically less trustworthy to westerners. I’m not saying you are a scammer of course, but the reason companies contract to India is because it is cheaper. You seem to want a western wage, and you will likely have it a lot harder in sales, where trust is extremely important.

Not a fan of the paragraph font, nice site though. Also not a huge fan of that bright orange, maybe a slightly darker shade?

If you want to get a tech founder you MUST validate your idea and effectively guarantee that you’ll have customers FIRST. That will justify your investment if you outsource development. But I would highly recommend in house tech for a tech business.

If you want a CTO/tech founder, note that development is a huge time investment for people in a very well paid field, and you need to bring something to the table beyond your idea.

There is no shortage of ideas men who want a programmer to slave away for them, you have to make it worth their while.

Sell your skills.

You will lose a lot of money in your development that way. Unless you already have clients and/or definitive proof beyond a belief of a PMF, you should look into getting one.

Soundz like a fun idea. Sales would be b2b, so if you’re a software developer, it’s only your time + maybe the price of a few tablets/whatever device interfaces with the lane API. Maybe have a chat with a few local bowling alleys and see if they’d be interested in trying out a new software. Perhaps prototype it first so you have something to show.

Agree with a previous commenter on a bank loan. It’s quite a low amount of money to give away equity for.

Running expenses aren’t that bad, it’s the development/maintenance cost that will set you back. Those places probably have in house tech/founders.

Do you have a CTO/tech founder?

Daily. Depending on what you do, you’re probably sitting for extended periods working. I need to break that up.

Ego

Without knowing what the hobby is, you can start small scale at relatively low expense. Try selling on Facebook marketplace, craigslist, etc type sites to raise starting capital. Get people to make pre orders if you need the cash upfront to produce the product. That will first of all enable you to test out the PMF for your specific product, and build a customer base/network.

Not sure if this is exactly what you’re asking for, but WordPress has quite good built in SEO in my experience.

Your website has a poor colour scheme which makes it look dodgy, and the image contrasts too brightly compared to everything else. I’d go white background.
