I never use the OAuth option personally. I wouldn't read a help page. I always offer both OAuth and email/password in implementations. I don't find managing my own logins difficult. Having said that, the percentage of users w

Could you offer api's to your tools or offer them as widgets for other websites to use and charge for that?

Thanks for the thoughts. Via another comment on here, I've made contact with a couple of developers on CoFoundersLab. Who knows, maybe one of them might be the right one. Cheers.

OK, get your point on the multiple. Sorry, commenting on my business has me in defensive mode! I recruited and retained several top level devs in my 10 years prior to going it alone. I'm not too worried about that bit. But thanks for m

Thanks for that. Interesting. Would I give up 50%? Yes - for the right return. I know I can do much, much better than triple customers if I can leave the technical debt to someone trustworthy. I accept that the last seven years is sunk cost

I looked at cofounderslab a while back. Can't remember what stopped me completing it then. It seems to have evolved a lot. Thanks for replying, much appreciated. Edit: CoFoundersLab looks really hopeful David. It's just gone down

It is definitely the latter. The business has next to no expenses (just me and my family!). I'll take a look at whoishiring again. Maybe I can persuade someone to work in that manner for a few months till I get the sales flowing. Thank

No legal obligation. I should clarify, the industry that has been buying into it knows me very well, I've not been stealth there. I've just started focussing on another industry - they will know me well within 12 months. But whils

I've been in the industry since 95, so, yes, I see myself here for the long run. Wouldn't rule out an exit from this business if the opportunity arose though. I believe growth potential is bigger than most of the super-inflated va

Wow, thanks. It's predominantly ERP. Customers are top 20 from 1 industry currently (the referral impact) but it's not limited to that trade. It's taken 7 years because I've had to earn a living while developing it and i

I know I can get lots of customers very quickly, I'm turning business away. My issue is letting them down because I don't have the resources to support them. (my previous roles were biz-dev, I do that well)

I've been trying to stay 'under the radar' but maybe you're right, could be time to come out of stealth mode, thanks.

Ask HN: Where do I go from here?

I think I might try a light version as a weekend project sometime soon, cheers.

That's exactly what I find myself doing, but: I don't like paper As things change I find myself rewriting the same stuff over and over It feels like it should be easier/more effective if automated

I had forgotten about lighttable, thanks. I'll need to revisit it.

I deleted a line from my original post before submitting it which said it was a problem I wanted a solution for so that might make it worth persuing! I like your suggestion that it should be highly modular, not sure what makes that mean its
