We have gathered heaps of feedback from the two customers, but I take your point. Landing page should be written by someone who knows what they are doing :)

I had two separate unrelated customers ask for almost exactly the same system after not being able to find an existing solution that meet their needs.

Thanks for replying!

skiltz | 10 years ago | on: Ask HN: Any open source alternatives to intercom.io?

I'm looking for a cheaper automation system. Startup with not many customers. Starting point seems to be $49 for most of these companies. Drip, ConvertKit, Intercom etc

skiltz | 11 years ago | on: Ask HN: Windows VPS/dedicated server

Why do you need a VPS? Can you start with shared hosting? I've used https://www.softsyshosting.com/windows-vps/ for VPS before with good results.

skiltz | 11 years ago | on: Ask HN: Shall I run my own adserver?

I would run all the Ads through DFP so you can then track performance. https://www.google.com/dfp - Its really easy to setup. You can then also run adsense for any outstanding inventory you're not using.

skiltz | 11 years ago | on: Show HN: Spoffer – Not just another deals site

I didn't really understand the 'how it works' video, I 'subscribe to a business' and then what? Do I get emailed with offers or do I need to go back to the website to see new offers? How are you going to get people back to the site after the first viewing if you're not going to email or connect with them on social media?

This is exactly what we are working on at CoachSeek. We are creating a complete management system for coaches, which will in time integrate with a number of wearables to give sports coaches a central place to manage all their client data. http://www.coachseek.com

In New Zealand I always come back to Skype. It just works, always seem to have issues with Google Hangouts and FaceTime.

skiltz | 13 years ago | on: Show HN: JustBeamIt v2.0 - file transfer made easier

Didn't work for me - Dragged file (jpg) using Chrome (Version 22.0.1229.94 m) opened link in IE 9 (9.0.8112.16421). Went to 100% on chrome once link was opened then just stuck on "waiting for response from justbeamit.com" in IE. Seems like a cool idea.
