I see more and more employers nowadays offering "free parking", "located near public transportation" or "foosball tables" as "perks" at the workplace. No disrespect, and I know that some of these cost money too, but what happened to the real ones?
One of the best perks I had at work, was that I had the freedom to work on my own schedule - as long as I put in at least 8 hours per day. The only downside of that was that I had to "step in" if there were issues, regardless of the hour of the day. I would still start the day at 8:00am at the office - it was nice to have the option to start later if you wanted so.
Right now I cannot get any traction with the current state of the app (not consumer-ready). So I am stuck in this loop... I am reluctant to apply for seed investment as a single developer - as I know that this does not look good to investors. All I have is a website, screenshots, a blog, a demo and a deck.
I know that's not enough, but I also know that this has some potential. How do you break this loop?
I know Evernote is now using their own data centers. I am still trying to figure out monthly prices on Amazon Glacier (simple calculator... not so simple) - and having difficulties to estimate a monthly price.
I am looking for a "pure cloud storage" reliable long term solution with simple and easy to understand pricing, where I can store customer attachments.
Would appreciate any advice. Thank you.
