@ToddGoldstein I already send you a PM, Sorry I can't post my question on the wall, it's a personal question

Regards

You're asking for a discount. Nothing wrong with asking. Nothing personal either, so I'll just answer it right here.

I am a strong proponent of starting small and growing responsibly. Call me a Neanderthal entrepreneur but I find it silly to start a business with money that doesn't belong to me. It'll make you dependent on others and lead you to volatile decisions which will endanger your vision and your enterprise.

That's why we created App.Cat to be accessible and expandable at any level. Start extremely small, then grow step by step, only investing money that you actually made, not borrowed!

Here's an article that covers this: http://help.app.cat/solution/categories/70267/folders/114978/articles/67047-how-do-i-start-an-app-business-with-app-cat-

That piece was written before we introduced App.Cat ONE app and I should probably update it because a lot of entrepreneurs actually start with THAT one now. Make ONE app, sell it and you'll probably have more than enough capital to buy App.Cat UNLIMITED. If not (you sold too cheap?), buy another ONE and sell that.

There's no reason for you to buy the sausage factory if you just want to test your waters in selling hot dogs...

As much as I would like to sell you "the dream" and talk you into any of our corporate solutions for tens of thousands of dollars I just find it unethical. It's what our competition does and I don't know how they can sleep at night.

So please: Take this opportunity and start small so you won't have to regret a decision you made on pure speculation. Get App.Cat ONE. It fits your budget and lets you grow without artificial pressure.

How much will be to up grade from app.cat one to unlimited?
regards

ToddGoldstein

@Kimba You either buy App.Cat ONE or App.Cat UNLIMITED.
They're entirely different pieces of software.

ONE is extremely simple but powerful. It's essentially what you see when you watch our InstanApp videos: http://appcat.vanillaforums.com/discussion/410/

UNLIMITED is "real software" in a sense that it's geared towards people who are selling apps for a living and thus don't mind a learning curve to explore the extreme amount of customization options. The factory, so to speak.

I personally recommend ONE for starters. Once you made some money selling that app, either buy another ONE and keep things simple and quick or go for UNLIMITED depending on your preferences.

One more question Todd,

There is a limit on how many buttons an app can have?

Regard

ToddGoldstein

You can make as many buttons as you want. But remember: Less is more!

@ToddGoldstein Thank you so much for your response, but I was talking about the price that was raised to $399 !! it was just $199 when I asked to reserve me a spot, I was planing to make 100 application and sell theme for $50 so I can buy the agency plane, I already contacted the costumers, now I can't do anything ... I hope you understand my point !

Kimba

Thank you for the answer and i got another question.
I have a possible client which he want me to create 3 different app but is asking to be able to open the app without the need of he Internet. How can I solve this problem? If I publish the app to the App Store will they be able to download the app in to the phone and view the content without the wifi o 3G ?
What other options do I have and what would you suggest as a solution to this problem?

Regards

Hi, I replied to Claudia via the lounge as requested but my question and therefore the reply has disappeared? Can you please advise.

Thanks
Andy

ToddGoldstein

@Kimba This isn't a viable option. Find a different client

ToddGoldstein

@Claudia will communicate when she's back at her desk, @graphiteapp

graphiteapp

@ToddGoldstein ok, thanks Todd.

graphiteapp

Hi @ToddGoldstein,

Has Claudia come back to the office as yet please? Just wanted to square away our ongoing discussion.

Thank you
Andy

ToddGoldstein

@graphiteapp yes, and she's processing her tasks in order of receipt. I appreciate your patience.

@ToddGoldstein I have been trying to get a proper answer to my question. I contacted Help Desk and they directed me here.

I have just signed up for the Digital Agency Solution, and am realizing good volume of sales. I need to know the proper way of requesting a Check for the profit made on my eCommerce site? Could you help me get the W-9 form to fill out, and give me directions how to properly request and get my profits from my past sales on eCommerce?

I want to thank you ahead of time for your time and consideration, for it seems that you are quite busy on this forum....

ToddGoldstein

Don't double-post questions @APPlied. You'll get your answers quicker by only posting ONCE and in the relevant topic. This isn't it.

graphiteapp

@ToddGoldstein No problem, just wanted to check it was still live. Thanks Todd.

Claudia

@graphiteapp I do apologize but I cannot locate a post here from you. Or did you PM me?
