This is a pretty basic product but it's got all the necessary functionality I originally thought out for it.
The idea is to give restaurant servers (or really anyone who works for tips) a simple, no-nonsense tool to track income & expenses and see their daily spending budget.
This could be disastrous, but if you want to login and look around, you can use username 'employee' with pw 'applesaucegingersnaps'. I guess we'll see what happens if multiple people are logged in making edits at the same time!
When I was server, this is something I would've liked to have had. I haven't done much market probing yet, but any critique is welcomed and encouraged, per usual Show HN!
The reason that employee:applesaucegingersnaps is necessary is that all your hard work is buried behind a login page. I mean, anyone who reaches your landing page is potentially pure gold. Sure they're also potentially a black hat, but the business is making money. Don't put in friction. Don't make the experience bad.
And by bad I think of how many people who work for tips are going to be interested in typing all War and Peace of employee:applesaucegingersnaps. The audience isn't HN'ers or investors. It's the real individuals you're trying to make life better for.
Forget about marketing. Go out and show it to restaurant servers and people who work for tips [or others who have variable income] make it good. Make it useful. It's not about SEO trickification.
