Great idea, if you plan on charging rates that makes sense for fellow Saffas. I would potentially be a customer if you bundle this with Mautic tech support like Joey does with Friendly. Love Mautic but have been very nervous to go full production with paying customers given its on going bugginess and no solid support channel, the blessing and curse of open source.

Right now I pay a ton of monthly cash for a competitor to mautic, even though I prefer mautic, simply because they offer support and reliability.

I have been using mautic almost since it’s launch so happy to chat and share experience.

HI Rob,

Yes thats exactly what we are working on. In your mind, what rate would make sense to fellow Saffas - keen to get your perspective being in the industry yourself? we also currently work with a competitor, that has been developed in SA.
