📺 Watch/listen on YouTube

Application’s lifecycle in a marketplace explains why at times developers add features nobody really needs and why many of them try to turn their applications into services.

Lifecycle model:

  • Rapid growth on growing market
    • Revenue comes from new users
  • Few new users, but strong demand for new features
    • Revenue comes from upgrades by existing users
  • Full saturation: no new users, no demand for new features
    • New sources of revenue are needed
