But as things stand and by your own estimate, 90% of the people buying these (relatively) cheap scripts, if they don't tackle the $6,000-worth of work a year you say it takes to make them fully useful, basically don't stand a chance of making money with them. That's frankly ridiculous.
I meant $500 per costumer per month And that would be too expensive for 99% of possible buyers, so it wouldn't sell, and that's the reason why a perfectly maintained database doesn't exist (yet)
