Get i t Model – Not Premium, Donat ion

I. Getit App is Free to download and use. No barrier to entry!!

II. App should be Feature Premium – not Price if you target mass acquisition

III. End user pays for utility on consumption not on discovery. Therefore, upfront charging doesn’t work

IV. Mass products don’t attract Donation. Not God’s gift to Mankind!
