So this is my entrance in the SaaS industry and I am planning to launch my first SaaS soon. I just needed validation on my idea before I started to actually work on this thing.
So the idea of the app is that you will be able to create your own branded online store which is essentially a plug-and-play service. You can create a store with the click of a button and all you would have to do is upload your products. There will be a dashboard to track all the orders and deliveries. Analytics will also be provided in the pro version. The payment integration will also be plug-and-play.
The ideal customer profile (ICP) of this application would be small Instagram sellers who do not have enough investment to spend on a custom online store.
This service will be having 2 subscription tiers: • Free ($0/m) - Free features • Pro ($19.99/m) - Free features + Analytics + Reporting
Let me know what you all think of this idea and I would love to hear your feedback on this. Any tips for improvement and new feature ideas are also appreciated!
Yes, I have years of experience in building custom ecommerce stores for clients. All I would need to do is embed the same functionality into another website and host different stores on different urls like “https[PARENT_URL]/[STORE_NAME]/“ and I should be good to go (right?).
I’m also thinking of a hot wallet like structure for the automatic payment integration. Basically, the buyer of a product pays me the money and the credit gets added to the store owner’s account. The store owner can cash out after they have reached the minimum amount of credits that can be cashed out.
