Simple MVP, Anyone needs something like this?

Hello IH family. I just build a MVP (or landing page) to explain my idea: www.99planner.com. It will be able to create a software generated planner depends on user's information. I know there are tons of calender apps but i like still writing with a pen. Should i proceed this or is it bad idea? Thanks for all your opinions.

    Nothing wrong with the idea, a lot of people love paper planners and the customization seems like a good idea.

    $19 to print it yourself is not really cheap tho.

      Thanks for feedback Petr.
      Prices are not real for now.

    I think there is a huge amount of value in this. Many people still use printed planners and take notes by hand. Maybe provide grid paper at the back as an add-on option?

    I'd also encourage you to make it equally as good for print and online (maybe not for MVP, but as a goal). That way your users don't need to choose between the two. I think that will reduce friction and enhance the value proposition / how much you can charge.

    I have some other ideas, would like to DM. Followed you on Twitter.

    You could try making the printable version free, just to get leads.

    And offer hosting the planner with a shareable link that the user can email others. I think that'd be a solid business case, for example marketing teams as they plan out their content marketing for the year around holidays/events, etc.

      It's a super marketing idea. I'll think this. Thank you mate.

    I really like this idea. If it was printed and delivered I think it would make a huge impact on whether or not I'd pay for it. It also would be a great gift for B2B as welcome/thank you gift to clients. Good luck Serkan!

      Thank you for your inspiring comment, Kyle. I think i'll make this. At least i'll try :)

    Seems like a good idea, I also prefer a written planner.

    I'm not sure I would print it out and carry that around, or take it to meetings at work, for example. I'd like to see an example of a printed planner I think, maybe it looks nicer than I imagine.

    If you could find a way to print them really nicely, I would definitely buy a high quality customizable planner with all my dates pre-populated, that might also make a nice gift (although that's a very different business).

      Thank you Dave. I also don't take a home-printed planner to bussiness meeting :) I will try to find people who willing to buy it for a few days. If i found, i will look a way to print it in high quality.

    Looks good.

    Show what the printed calendar looks like - I think that one has the biggest potential.

      Dear Chvid, thanks for your answer. I personally need this and write codes that generates the planner. Not printed yet. Only i need to know, is there anyone else find that valuable like me. If i get answer yes, i will complete missing parts and will ask a quote for printing a special calender. I think it might a little expensive for 1pcs. But i think that this planner also valuable for companies with their own logos. In this case the price may drop.
