Happy Birthday my old friend!
If you ever build that let me know, as you say it’s something we could build but I’d rather not deal with everything you described :)

I guess the answer is to negotiate hard to get what you want.
It’s absolutely a POC but with shared risk and a real concentration on onboarding/implementation - I’ve done this for lots of the software we use internally and it works well for us.
They still have a 12 month contract, but you know you can walk away with 30 days notice in month 3 if implementation is poor.
That’s meeting in the middle and usually accepted by most businesses if you push.
If they say they risk not making a profit if you leave, offer to pay a setup fee that is entirely refunded if you stay past the 3rd month.
It means you’ll lose some more money if the implementation goes bad, but not as much as the whole 12 month term.
I’d want to introduce the tool across the company but I don’t trust people to remember that it shouldn’t have sensitive information sent to it.
It would mean people can’t simply guess the link?
Not perfect I know.
That way you’re only spending money retargeting website visitors who aren’t already customers.
We do this at Paiger for this very reason, and I imagine DO is the same.
Edit:
20 is extreme though.
I’ve only got one feature I wish they had and that’s onboarding checklists for new users. We use their product tours, in app messages and email drip campaigns for new users, but a different bit of software for the checklist. I’d love it all in one place.
Charge more.
I know that’s not the answer you wanted, but it’s worth it for the right talent and allowing yourself to concentrate on other things.
It can be a weirdly lonely place at times.
Im UK based so TZ should work well, plus I’m a frequent visitor to NL (Pre CV) so it would be great to chat over a beer when we can.
Very proud to support a solo founder.
If you’re running a SaaS and want to get more testimonials from your customers this has been a game changer for us - it’s simple and effective.
I really hope I can finish this year with the successful business I’ve always wanted, while being better at home - they’ve been patient with me on this journey, I want this year to be the year it was all worth it.
Our market is marketers though, not technical people - if it were, I suspect the results would differ.
That’s what we do at Paiger and it’s a fantastic way to ensure people reach the “Aha” moment.
