Hi guys, I'm new to FD so wanted to say hello. I'm developing a B2B SaaS product and had a few questions surrounding structuring pricing… I'm not looking to raise money, I'm trying to have clients (business) fund the development. I am selling this in two ways:
a) full buyout license + monthly hosting/support or
b) one-time setup cost and monthly fee (% license + hosting/support).
If my estimated initial build cost is $25,000 (onshore, local talent) then:
- - how should I structure the license fee for both full buyout and monthly?
- - how many paying clients should I plan on being utilized to cover all development costs? I could then work out fees from there.
- - in the monthly pricing model (b), should there always be a part of the build cost factored in?
- - how should I scale the pricing based on the size of the business (larger companies have more money)?
