In a world full of SaaS businesses, the author longs for the simpler days when software was a one-time purchase that lived on your computer. Instead of following the trend, the author decides to build a vending machine after a memorable encounter with an alien sticker vending machine. The author draws parallels between traditional vending machines and internet-based vending machines like ThreeKindWords.com, emphasizing simplicity, autonomy, and fun. This unique approach prioritizes straightforward transactions, low costs, and a hands-off customer service approach. By embracing the vending machine model, the author aims to create a platform that is efficient and enjoyable without the complexities of traditional SaaS businesses.
