I know a bit of HTML, I manage my own Magento & Opencart websites and I "get by" but I'm no coder and I haven't the time to learn.
I am involved in an industry (construction contracting) I've been doing it for 12+ years and about 6 years in my current role and there is a real need for a specific bit of software.
The software is (in my mind!) relatively straight forward and will cover the core functions required for this need with ability to turn on/off features. It's a calendar based system, think of a calendar merged with Trello. (I'm not going to call it the next Trello!!!) the aim is to cover the real, required, needed issues and ignore the fluff found in most software packages.
It has a specific need and a big value input to businesses, I work in electrical contracting, however this software can be universal so it will be valuable to anyone in contracting - electrical, fire, security, maintenance, building, plumbing, gas, etc. To be honest it could be valuable to anyone who has staff that go places to compete a job so the target audience is quite large.
It's not location specific either so it meets the Scale commandment.
I've found a real pain point in existing software, specifically in why people choose not to opt for new software/systems, and this software completely avoids that, which I feel will make it so much easier to sell.
Sounds great?
But I don't know how to code, have no time (ok, no intention!) to learn and I can't throw $00,000 at it.
What are my options?
Has anyone been here before? If so, what did you do?
