Great product and neat work. Fair pricing, unlike others who are charging a lot more.

I would definitely use your service for my next client projects.

Feedback:

1. Do whatever so that users will know your app exists in the first place.

First get known to lot of potential users. Let them know your app exists in the first place, then think of Bmodels. Charge little to none!

This kind of app needs more visibility and recognition across the web. Then everyone will recommend and refer your app over-time. It should only get better over time. So don't charge more. Give it at a throw-away price. Reach all top blogs, top/newly launched products and give them to use free, with your branding. ( Your product is the easiest to get known, because of the nature of the app)

2. Long-term: Build a branding around.

When someone thinks of product tours your app name should be synonymous with tours. Always think this way, and do whatever to achieve this. ;)

3. Add a referral service.

If someone recommends and links back, give them 1 month extra? Don't pay back anyone for referring, but let them use your product more and spread the good message.

* And do reach me out, if you need any kind of help. :)

Thanks for your comments.

1. Yes, we are planning on writing a few blogs emphasising the need for product tours, which we will be including in our 'cold call' sales emails to newly launched apps.

2. Branding: we chose 'Easy Product Tours' for easy remembrance and google-ability. We think we can build a decent brand around that name.

3. Sounds good. We'll give some thought to how we can implement a refferal program.
