Would also be a good idea - maybe just for the fun of it - to have a stepped pricing plan.

So for $2 a month, someone will call you once a week and tell you that "You're adequate". :)

Seriously though, a cheap pricing plan (something less than a beer) for someone to do something similar via Social Media (Twitter, Facebook) might work too.




For twitter there's already awesomeupdater that will do it for free: http://www.awesomeupdater.com/content/index


That was a fun hack. When i originally launched it - it proxied all the updates through the users accounts. ;) needless the users were like "wtf." heh. I removed that feature


Could be a great test for the freemium model - giving away "You suck" for free, "You're adequate" for 2$ and ""You're awesome" for 10$ a month :)
