I'm a possible customer for this. And wouldn't give you a cent because I don't believe you can do what you promise after looking at your landing page. I need to see demos, I need to see real customers with quotes of praise and links to their websites.

Give it away for free for 5 people, while building a clickable demo account that doesn't require a login, and make a youtube video to show more about your team and how to interact with your product.




Noted, we are working on this as we speak. Here is a quick video (raw) if you are intrigued https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7wAeenBe-c


Do not, not, not autoplay the video (as the site currently does). Especially not with sound enabled. That will get the site closed with prejudice by many people, and upset most of the rest. Especially when they can’t even see the video because it’s below the fold.

For user engagement, having a video available is good, but playing it contrary to user expectations is really bad.


Disabling in a moment :)


That goes in the right direction. Now play it quicker, spend less time on the data entry (which nobody finds exiting) and more on the exiting parts. Show loads of customers signing on and how they are paying their bills, which makes Tony richer and richer.

Also the video shows clearly that you miss marketing skills. Consider going out there and finding a cofounder with marketing skills. He should be older than you, good looking and preferably have a degree in economy.
