Same amount of work, very different money. B2B products earn $57 per subscriber per month at the median, consumer products $13. From 1,500+ small internet businesses with verified revenue.
Of products whose cheapest plan costs under $20, about 11%-14% have passed $10k a month. At $100+ it's 42%. And the pricier ones don't grow slower.
About 23% of small software businesses are AI products, but only 21% of them earn $10k+ a month, against 27% overall. Being AI is no longer the edge. Solving one job for one buyer is.
We read 889 startup websites. Those with a free trial grew 12% in 30 days at the median, those without 5%. A free plan and lifetime deals went the other way. Correlation, not cause, but a strong hint.
Websites that offer a demo call earn about 1.7x the median revenue of those that don't, and grow about twice as fast. Buyers who talk to a person pay more.
Tools for people who sell (marketing, sales, e-commerce, analytics) sit in the corner that pays well and grows. Mobile apps earn little per subscriber and grow slower. From 1,500+ small internet businesses with verified revenue.
