Re:TinySeed – A Startup Accelerator Designed for Bootstrappers

Not sure what "a bit too far along" is, but TinySeed's intent seems to be to help those on the lower rungs of profitability (even no profitability) to grow revenues more quickly. I see their mentorship as invaluable to anyone who hasn't reached a point in their revenue trajectory that they're earning a full-time income, with enough extra to invest in the growth they want/need.

please drop me an email at stevemaarten at g.
I posted a couple of questions on your Flippa posting, but never got a response, and I'm very interested in your app.

Nice site. Is this for sale? There is no apparent revenue model - are there plans to monetize it?

Great idea!
A few suggestions for you:
- For the Rep lookup, you should probably plug the user's address into a geocoder, and figure out who their rep is - I'll be the vast majority (maybe even 90% or more?) of voters aren't sure who their rep is. You should also remind them that they can and should write to both senators. - Also, you might want to include a mad-lib style fill-in-the-blanks template on some major issues of the day, for those people who are extremely short on time, and even ask submitters if you can share their letters anonymously with others as a template. Even add popularity ratings for later users to easily get to the most popular letters.
Again, great idea. Good luck with it!

I took a quick look at reminderhero, and don't think your issue is visual appeal. It isn't blatantly obvious from your landing page how the app works. Do you talk to it? Text and/or email it?
I know there is mention in one place that you can send an email, but that doesn't ring out loud and clear, that it applies to all uses. I would recommend adding a simple diagram of input to output in layman's terms, or a short video, or at least say "talk" or "text" on "email" in, get whatever out.

I've researched this as well, and followed a fair number of auctions on Flippa, and although as Rob says, the range is very broad, multiples follow a bell curve, with most in the 12x-18x monthly net revenue range.
