Budgeting on a budget
Today I'm happy to announce a big change for Muffin - it's cheaper!
In my ongoing efforts to make Muffin App a useful tool to make and track personal budgets I decided that if I could cut some of the costs and make Muffin more affordable more people could reap the benefits of using it. I was worried that those who could use Muffin App the most might be put off by the $7 a month price. There are a number of apps I'd like to use but even small amounts like that cause me apprehension. Heck, I love Muffin App. I use it all the time but even to me $7/month didn't seem like a lot to pay for Muffin App, but it did seem a lot to pay. There are so many great apps out there that are deserving of what little they charge but I can't afford to signup for every service out there. I found I had to limit myself to just a few of these apps and I imagine most of you out there are doing this as well.
So I asked myself a tough question. “Is Muffin App deserving of $7 a month?” I decided that as a developer, it was a great price for an app that saved me so much time. However I kept coming back to the paradox of thinking that it was worth it's $7/month price tag but that as a user on a budget it was hard to justify spending, well, anything! And that's when I went with my heart and not my head. I decided to cut Muffin App's price to something I was comfortable paying for myself. In the end I found $25 a year to be a comfortable amount to pay without turning my business into a complete charity. If you do the math, it works out at about a 70% discount. Even as I'm writing this I'm having second thoughts but I know that if I wasn't comfortable paying $7/month for my own Kool-Aid how could I ask anyone else to drink it.
$25 a year
I hope this won't be a complete disaster but even if it is, I know that I made the wrong decision for the right reason.
The only bit of Muffin App that has changed is the price, it's a pure price cut. No features have been axed. It's still the same great product it was, it's just that now it's got a price as awesome as itself.
