Business Model

I decied to work on Promint after my product was not approved by Lemon Squeezy. Also I paid around 30-35% commission to Envato Marketplace. I believe this is problem for all digital authors. Promint operates on a straightforward and transparent business model. There is one-time purchase option, providing users with a lifetime license for the selected package—Production or Developer. The one-time payment covers access to the self-hosted Digital Suite, including essential features and updates during the initial support period. Additionally, I planned for an optional support renewal subscription at a nominal annual fee for users who wish to continue receiving updates and dedicated customer support beyond the initial support period. This model ensures a fair and accessible pricing structure for users, eliminating any recurring charges or hidden fees. It aligns with our commitment to empowering creators with a cost-effective, lifetime solution while offering ongoing support options for those seeking extended assistance.

Competitive Landscape

Promint stands out as a unique Digital Suite, providing a range of options for authors and creators. Its distinctive feature lies in being self-hosted, offering a level of control and flexibility that sets it apart. In the realm of digital platforms, Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy, and Envato Marketplace are significant players, primarily facilitating product sales. However, none of these major players provide the comprehensive suite of features and self-hosted capabilities that Promint brings to the table. While Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy, and Envato Marketplace focus on product sales, Promint's uniqueness lies in its broader scope, catering to the diverse needs of authors and creators through a self-hosted Digital Suite.

Reason for Selling

There are two major reason: Limited Online Presence My personal online presence and follower base are currently limited, hindering effective marketing efforts. Despite the remarkable success of my products on Envato Marketplace, where I've achieved sales exceeding $110k, I haven't been able to allocate sufficient resources for promoting this particular item. Hardly tweeted 4-5 times about the product. I don't know marketing because I always use to sell it on Envato Marketplace. Financial Support for My Dream House I am at the final stages of building my dream house, a significant personal milestone. To ensure the completion of this project, I am seeking funds. Selling the intellectual property of this product would not only provide the necessary financial support but also allow someone else to take it to new heights with a more extensive marketing strategy and online presence. I am working as a Freelancer since 2015 built 10+ products and have 2000+ sales all over the world. You can check my portfolio at https://scriptmint.com. One of my startup Employer Zone was sold to Dubai based company for $30k in 2017. You can read more about it at https://yourstory.com/mystory/d43e155444-a-deal-which-was-pending-for-a-long-time-
