Meanwhile this leaves an opportunity for a different company to provide these services.

I do my best to avoid FAANG giants who don't think about me.

The highly price sensitive customer will force you to compete only on price. That's just forcing yourself into a commodity market. It's bad business. I would never try to cater to that market. Very dangerous. Competition will drive margins down to near zero.
