The Billion Person Internet
Micro ISV:
According to several estimates, about 1 billion people now use the Internet.
You job is to interest 0.00001 of them in your Micro-ISV's product.
1 Billion exactly? Of course not, but if you look at the stats at www.clickz.com and at www.internetworldstats.com, about a billion people, give or take a New Zealand, is a good ballpark number.
That's a very, very big ballpark, or more precisely, global digital market one click away from your purchase button.
Your challenge as a micro-ISV is to find say 0.00001 of those users (10,000) and find a problem that they
1) have,
2) don't want to have and most importantly,
3) will pay money not to have.
Then do that a few dozen times.
Narrow is good. Narrow is relevant.
