Another person's role is that of the idea man...the person that knows
the business and requirements and issues for the business. Together we
put together an application we both think is of value.
The app is written. Of course, the app is not finished. I suppose I
could work on this app for the rest of my days adding new features and
enhancing and adjusting as new software/hardware is created that opens
up new markets and potential. Conceivably this app could be a never
ending job. But it has enough features to go to market now and
hopefully be a success.
Have any of you created an application that you have taken to market?
I'd be curious to know what you did to make it a success. Did you do a
lot of cold calling? Did you attend lots of conventions? How did you
determine the pricing? Did you do a lot of mailings? Did you have a
good marketing background? Did you hire someone with experience in
marketing to get the ship off the ground and into the water? Were there
any books you considered a "bible" for getting your software on the
market and sold? Were there any companies that helped you get your app
to market and sold? Did you work with ISVs? Did you create
partnerships with other companies?

Yes. In my case, it was the opposite. My idea man, quite a visionary
in his industry, runs a business. When he started it 10 years ago he
decided that if he were to succeed he needed to invest in technology.
So as he ran his business and grew it he started working on his app,
investing in hardware and software and several years later he he hired
me and together we built the app to meet, and now meets, the demands of
his business. Although the app is tailered to his market, with very
little modification (mostly some lookup tables) it could be converted to
being used in several other vertical markets.

We know what software programs are out there for this industry. If one
had existed like ours, he would not have created this app. Why reinvent
the wheel if the wheel exists?
Some of the software programs are so cost prohibitive to small
businesses that those software companies have limited their market.
Other packages address issues that are applicable to a very small
segment of the industry. There are other software packages are web
based and are more tailored to the customers and clients of the company
and are not directed towards the workflow of the company performing the
work whereas ours is designed around the company's workflow. These
other packages have good ideas but are not designed to run the business
of the company and lack features necessary for the business. I have no
doubt we are lacking some features too, but we know what they are and
those issues are minor and can always be added when demand requires it.
If we waited until everything is perfect we could lose our edge and
opportunity.

If you were to give me the type of market you are looking for, I might be
able to provide better advice...
I have use the advice that swiminging gave you and had success. However
this only applies to a small market. If you are looking for a large market,
you might go to a large business that uses software that is like yours and
see what advantages yours has over theirs. If you find yours to be
superior, you then drop hints to those who are running the software and see
if they are pleased with their present software program. If you hear that
they are displeased ask them what it is they are displeased with. If your
software handles that complaint, you could then start a conversation with
that person and find out what they are looking for. Sometimes, in my case
it has been 100% success in finding out their status on if they are looking
into a change for their software program that better suits their business
needs, in which case you can present yourself to them and then give them a
presentation that is applicable for both you and the business. This has
worked for me in the fields of Accounting software programs, Video Rental
software programs, and Lawn Business software programs. There are a lot of
variables when you are trying to price your code. If you do it a business
at a time until you have a large following of businesses you have to charge
a fair sum for the initial purchase of the software and charge by the hour
for each businesses special needs to fine tune it for their purpose. This
in itself can be a full time operation at first and requires other people to
help you when you have more refining of your software than you have time.
When you get to this point, word of mouth works wonders.
When you are at this point is when you need to decide on launching your
program to the web. After you have solved where you niche in the market is
and developed it with actual businesses you have a record you can use for a
referral. Advertise in PC Mags with a demo that can't be broken and you may
just have a new PeachTree, QuickBooks, or FamilyLawyer program for all to
buy.
Right now I am working on a nation wide database for certain consumers of
professional services. It will start out as a community service until it
takes off or goes broke.
My brother C.E.O. of the defunct Roaster Technologies helped to make JAVA
what it is today and made it accessible to Microsoft. If the dot com
disaster had been one year later his company may have survived and Microsoft
would be licensing the technologies that he developed. Rather than been
bought out.

OK. It is software for running a business for a subcontractor; not a
General contractor, not a residential contractor, not a cash-n-carry
contractor, but a commercial subcontractor. It doesn't do accounting as
a company would be better off with an accounting program. It doesn't do
estimating as the company would be better off with a program that excels
in estimating. My program can (and does) interface with the accounting
program and it does use information from the estimating program. But
this program project manages and runs the business.

Yes. I see your point. Get some customers, get some "converts" that
spread the word, and advertise.
