Actually, this is really what I intended the focus of the thread to be... not so much the selling at four or five times the min price, but can any simple application be profitable without being a *hit*.
I don't know how Bug Squash #'s rate... that's why I'm hoping for others to chime in.
Clearly it is not the top 1%, but is it top 25%, top 50%, bottom half of the average?
I have no idea... but people certainly are not retiring on our current Bug Squash #'s. In fact, you really can't even make a living.
If we cut all application sales into a pie chart, what percentage of that pie makes over say $10,000 over the entire run of the application? over $25,000? over $50,000? over $100,000?
Obviously the numbers get smaller and smaller as you go up.
Anyone care to share their #'s? It is not fun to hear ONLY about the huge successes as it is false hope. I am interested in REAL numbers.
