As a bootstrapped founder of a number of companies this financial model hurts my brain. This approach is still a venture type fast growth model with low margins since you're giving away much of the money to the channels and customers. Is there even much left for development?
70-80% commission to AppSumo and up to 40% to affiliates sounds crazy if you want to fund growth from customer revenues. Sure it works if you have venture backing but totally self funded?
