This is my dream. However I think my target market is smaller and less willing to pay (personal rather than business). However maintenance is low effort and I want the product for myself. So even if it doesn’t make much or anything I think I will be happy to run it forever.
The ultimate dream would be to make enough to be able to employ someone else part time, so that there could be business continuity if I wasn’t able to run it anymore.

Good luck!
Righteous!
That sounds absolutely delightful. No new features, no intention of scaling or attracting bigger clients, just… Hobbit SAAS. 🙂
Mans living the dream. Would love to do similar, I just need to get off my ass and build something
Well done!
That’s great, really, well done! And I love that spirit, that “peace of mind” of not wanting more and enjoying what’s enough!
All the best!
