If only I were a dev!
I own an absolute killer domain https://easymail.in and have already been offered $3000 for it. Didn't bite
It would make a killer productivity suite (email, drive, calendar, notes, tasks, password manager) for the Indian market
It would be a Google killer
Google Workspace costs $3.50 per user per month in India. Zoho offers $0.70
I'd offer $0.50 with custom domains. India has 800 million Internet users

Build it.
I'll need angel / VC funding to hire devs
There’s no rush.
All the skills every successful or determined dev are available online. We just need to read the books , invest the time. You’re not born a web developer, we learn it. You can do it dude.
How do you eat an elephant?
I also own skymail.me
Over the years I’ve owned loads of good domains , all with a really good idea behind them , only three made money , only one paid the bills for 20 years. I had to build and market the business myself , takes blood sweat and tears , starting at 5am finishing at midnight for years…. It was a dream, if it’s yours you will succeed 💜
Thanks!!
Make a plan. Write it up. Get used to selling it to yourself. You need to be completely coherent untouchable and have the balls of a lion if you want someone to part with cash based on a conversation.
That’s my 2 sats anyway.
Did you raise any funding?
i've not done it in person but one good win on a proposal paper, and maybe 1 1/2 more coming up soon
Congrats 👍
On one Yes , I sold 50% of a business that was just an idea, he provided the back office staff , liquidity etc, it enabled me to work on my dream. It didn’t work out in the end. The one that worked I literally studied my arse off for years, scraped by , didn’t know if I’d be able to feed my kids some months, it was hard and horrible , but I just couldn’t shake it … then boom. The orders started coming. Scary shit … only for the headstrong
I'm very bullish on easymail.in because people will be able to get good emails like avi@easymail.in rather than the crappy ones they have on Gmail like sean3671@gmail.com
Email clients are not my thing , I’m an automation engineer atm
I'll talk to Zoho Sales this week
They let you white label their office suite
Easymail, if nothing else, is a great trademark ™️
Zoho was such a waste of money… used them in 2018 NEVER AGAIN
If you want to get started, I can vouch for Nextcloud being an outatanding productivity suite. It's main focus is files, but it has plugins for email, text chat (Matrix), voice/video chat and more.
If you wanted to run a private beta and just start with the basics such as files and documents, it'd let you prove out your idea and perhaps get that VC money (or skip the VC money and build it organically)
