Temperature-Controller-Software-Scripted-Driver

Business Model

• Software spreads to cover full controller market
  • Acts as a roving software commercial
  • Community - helps generate awareness of the software and "capture effect"
• include "Buy software support time" in menus. User gets nominal value with purchase of software. Thereafter must pay. Menu directs to webpage that they fill in and pay via PayPal.
• Sell system design and consultation
• Sell driver script development service to temperature controller manufactures - put in a menu

Business model works best when there is a desire to connect. All components should be designed keeping this in mind.
