Disagree. A baker makes bread. Milkman does some physical work to produce and provide a real product. What does Govly do? Get in the middle of a transaction you can complete without them and take a fee for filing some forms for you. Theyre maybe a secretary or something less at the very most.

Disagree. A baker gets in the middle of mixing some ingredients you can get yourself without them and take a fee for mixing that stuff for you.

I think you might simply not have a clue what a value proposition is, what a product is or what optimisation is.

Well that's the product. Yeah, I can sit in $place all day and complete $tasks I need done. However, if there is someone that I can pay to do it for me, then it's a simple comparison: my time vs their cost.
