Terpaholic commented on Ask HN: One man bootstrapped SAAS business, do you disclose that to clients? · Posted by u/codegeek
As a one man bootstrapped SAAS business, I generally omit that information unless asked. If the question is asked, I answer truthfully. The hardest part about being a one man startup in my experience actually is getting press coverage. When they ask you about your "Team" and you say it's you and a freelancer, the conversation seems to end pretty quickly.
I'd love to hear others opinions on how to approach the press as a one-man bootstrapped SAAS startup?
http://www.campusjobs.org - it allows businesses to hire students from any school, and aims to become a one-stop job center/career center for higher education in the long run.
Terpaholic commented on Ask HN: What is 1 growth hack you've learned and improvised from HN? · Posted by u/sksa
It wasn't from HN, but from Patio11 - Instead of having 2 buttons on a landing page, have one button and present the other one as text below it. I've seen increases of +30% conversion rate from that.
Can you talk a little bit about your metrics or future plans? Looks interesting, would love to know more about how you're competing in this pretty competitive space.

Hey, congratulations on launching! Could you talk a little about how Cocos2D was to build with? Is it a high investment to learn?
Also: be careful of your app name, you might be contacted by King regarding trademark infringement for the term "Candy".
Foundation by Zurb is probably the biggest head-on competitor.
On the lighter side (codebase wise) getskeleton.com is useful. It handles the responsive stuff without adding much other styling.
Google recently put out Web Starter kit as well: developers.google.com/web/starter-kit/
Foundation is extremely useful, and feels professional. It does less of the styling for you (think less default css themes), but overall stands toe to toe with Bootstrap. If you've ever found yourself fighting with Bootstrap (like the resizing height responsive menus), Foundation is a great alternative.
Would definitely recommend Foundation in a heartbeat.

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for this! Could you talk a little bit more about what goes into the competition score?
