It's interesting that you're still not interested in feedback. Why do you even bother to continue with this thread if you're just going to ignore people genuinely trying to give you what you asked for?

I completely disagree. Dustin's current text has already been shown as being disingenuous. Trying to say that you have something wholly new in an area that has been done to absolute death, is sketchy at best.

And while other marketers are disingenuous most of the time, I don't think that gives any other marketer an excuse to be disingenuous at any time (if mary jumped off a cliff, would you too?).

To me it sounded much like the others asking for information. Maybe trentg was just a little bit more subtle (probably because even the slightest non subtlety will cause dustin here to fly into a rage ) than everyone else.

@Trent Gamblin
nice points but you cant use your self and your knowleg of how long it takes to make as price juding factors.
The people buying this type of stuff are not programers. all these people care about is "is it useful?" or "who else is using it?"

Hm, I will consider this for a while.

If you think my app's advantages are BS than why help me market it? Maybe your effort would be better spent somewhere else.

Because marketing this well is very important to me and there is a chance helpful advice will come to me from this thread. This is meant in the friendliest way possible .

@Billybob A youtube video is a great idea! I am definitely going to do that (albeit it will take some time write a script or outline and get a camera etc).

Edit Also I haven't gotten the google promo code in case you are still interested in giving it to me.

You're just too kind .

I myself prefer hard numbers to adjectives in advertising. Saying "The Toy Yoda has the best fuel economy in its class" where class is unspecified tells me nothing beyond they're trying to pull a fast one, OTOH, saying "The Toy Yoda gets 26.6mpg city, 32.7mpg highway according to the government tests" is something you can use.

15 times faster certainly should make you think twice, but it's not inconceivable. I have a ton of personal stories that no one would believe, to the point I won't tell them anymore, and resort to jokes and wild anecdotes to have anything to talk about at all.

This is much better than my text.

Thanks for putting in the effort - Do you want a free copy of the app?

How does this sound?

How is this?

I also think the app name sounds more like a screen capture utility. I find "Remote Screen Spy" to do a much better job of conveying the functionality.

Here are the next 3 days of sales.

Friday and Saturday are the popular app purchasing dates, so if something is going right I should see sales today as well (but possibly not tomorrow).

I updated the description on May 13th, so it's possible it worked as shown by sales on May 14th.

Edit I will update "with" to another word.

Here is the graph of all 6 days.

App sales are always high on the first few days because you get on the "What's new" lists.

Here is the breakdown of which counties are buying my app.

Apple only pays me the total for a given region if the amount in that region exceeds $150. They pay 90 days after the month in which you reach that number (something like that). So I haven't gotten a single dollar yet.

More Editing
If I can get to just one $150 payment than I will build a version 2 with more polish and better features.

What a scamjob rip off. Sounds like a cheap way for them to leech even more money off people - think of all the interest they're pulling on those funds, not only until you hit $150, but for 90 days after.

Android market uses Google Checkout, so you get paid immediately per transaction (well, after 48 hours or whatever the refund period is, the charge isn't put through until the user can't refund anymore).
