The reason you are getting down voted is because of the wording in your title. "Sure-fire" invokes bullshit get rich quick schemes, the opposite of what the "entrepreneurial spirit" is about.

If there was a sure fire way to generate $5k profit monthly, everyone would do it, and then it would not be profitable anymore. That's just basic market equilibrium.

If you really just want some ideas, don't use the "sure-fire" language.

I misused the word "sure-fire," I stand corrected. My philosophy in a sure-fire way of creating a profitable SaaS or even a simple software is to find an inefficiency in the way businesses are run. However, seldom get to hear the needs of small business owners whom most likely do not have the budgets to invest in a new system. It's usually the "big gun" corporations that have the ability to spend sacks of money to fix their inefficiencies.

TL;DR: Small business/startup owners, what is one simple software/service which would seem to be 1) cheap to implement; 2) easy to implement, that you wish you had?

Ok, we took "sure-fire" out of the title.
Pretty cool that you can do that! Thank you :)
The other reason is, everyone want to make money, whatever situation they are in. Why would we care about how much some other individual cares to make?
