So that your potential clients will see how the lawn looked like before and after. Pictures of high resolution will gain more trust among users.

Event-making

Why don't you make money of event organizing if you are really good at it? It is necessary to plan everything wisely and control processes. Website design should be clear and festive. Customers reviews are the must have for it.

SAAS Platform

Do not get nervous if you got no idea what is this. It’s quite simple. SaaS (Software as a Service) is a model of using a website as an Internet service. You create a service where users will pay a monthly fee. This idea is more complicated comparing to the last ones, since it requires some skills. You should understand clearly what is of great demand at the market. If you understand the needs properly, you are able to get 1,000 - 10,000 subscribers. So having a minimum tariff plan of $9.99, your monthly profit could be $9,990 - $99,900. Good bargain, isn’t it? Let's have a look at some ideas for SAAS platforms.

Task management for sportsmen

Every sportsman has a training program that should be performed. The platform will allow composing and marking performance of the exercises, analyze progress dynamics, and offer an individual diet.

Advertising Companies Management

Marketers spend a lot of time managing all the accounts on social networks. They publish posts, review comments, and estimate the results. This is an all in one platform which will allow you to manage and analyze the results in one place. Obviously, it cannot replace Google Analytics, but it can complement it well. Many specialists are willing to pay hundreds of dollars per month for so useful services. This is a niche product with a limited audience; therefore, the membership cost could be much higher than the usual SAAS platforms.

Finance Management System

It is of great demand for middle size companies. It allows users to manage revenues and expenses in a company, build graphics, calculate main financial indicators (ROI, ROR, TCO, etc.). For its creation good skills in financial field are required. As in previous one, the product has a limited audience, but membership can cost several hundred dollars.
