Tech and Business Dev
Six Web Apps in Twelve Months
Personal project, tech startup, unicorn company that'll go to the moon? Ha! ...
This year 2022, I plan to launch 6 web apps publicly while documenting the process. Mainly I'm doing this so throughout the year I can improve my skills while make a little money in the process. I also want to experiment with new technologies and growth/marketing strategies so I can use what I learn there to improve my clients projects.
Since I'm a full stack developer I can build EVERYTHING myself making the build cost negligible. Once I have the fundamental codebase, I can reuse the majority it on other projects saving me a ton of time. All I have to worry about is swapping out the ideas and creating a new UI. They are all essentially just C.R.U.D.(Create, Read, Update , Delete to a database) apps and only one or two will have an extensive backend. It's like math, once you can do a few basic operations, you can do anything.
My criteria for choosing which idea to pursue will change in the future undoubtably, but this year it's something like this:
Must solve a personal problem or answer a good question
Can be monetized with a SaaS business model
Something everyone can use - B2C, friends and family too
Work with user generated data, not paid external data feeds
I'll maintain long-term interest and use it frequently
Capable of learning how to do it entirely myself
Can be bootstrapped, no fundraising or permits required
