How Does The Business Model Work:-
- You launch your business with us on a Rental/Monthly payments basis using the our ready turn key software for Airbnb clone business with all the default features that you will need to run your business. You can check a demo of all frontend and backend features before you move ahead. The cost to launch is very minimal – there is a nominal set-up charge for setting up your system of only $80 for the complete website with super admin and each business sub-admin and then a flat monthly fees of $20 till the time you run your business. In the set-up only the code and server is ours, rest all assets ownership like domain etc. is with you.
- You can run your business on Rental/Monthly payments till the time you want and stop at anytime you want. During the Rental period our team will provide you complete support.
- Whenever you want you can buy this same system outright with code ownership along with the source and all changes and move to your server. We provide complete migration to new server.
- The biggest advantage that we offer is even during rental period or before launch is that you can customize and personalize the entire system including the design and adding/changing any functionality without buying the source code. We provide you custom development services for these customizations on a nominal hourly charges. so basically you control the entire system the way you would on your own server except that the code ownership, which you would need to buy when you are ready.
This allows you to test your business model and business idea on a nominal costs and then invest more into the business when you see success in your business or you can setup your business MVP and gain customers and then buy the system outright when you get funding.
The system is completely white-label.
How Does The Process Work?
- You pay $80 set-up charge and we setup your website within 48 hours. You just need to buy the domain from your account and point the domain to our server so the system runs on your domain. Once the website is setup we can add your logo’s, change color scheme and do minor design changes/updates to the system for you. Set-up cost includes 20 hours of design and development support. Note – All graphic assets like logos, images etc. to be used on website is to be provided by client. Also all business specific details google maps api keys, facebook account for facebook logins etc.
- During this entire period or before you go live or after you go live we can provide custom development services for any changes you need to the system. The hourly rate for custom changes will be $10/hour if your change request is less than 20 hours change or $7/per hour if you buy minimum 20 hours($140 for 20 hours work). For custom development work we will provide you estimated work hours for the changes you require and once we agree to the estimated work hours and billing our development team member will start and complete the task. Payment for custom development will be 50% upfront and 50% on completion for tasks less than $500 and milestone based for amount higher than $500.
