The App: Skylark for Nest & Honeywell Thermostats http://www.skylarkios.com/ Skylark automatically & reliably controls Nest/Honeywell thermostats and smart devices, based on your location. It saves you money by making your heating & air conditioning more energy-efficient. Skylark is easy to set up, and can sync with multiple smartphones in a household, plus has a whole bunch of other nifty features. Check out Skylark on the App Store Why you should buy this side project Low-maintenance — The app is stable, and well-documented, with a full customer support portal and active user feedback community included. Marketing is largely on autopilot — organic traffic is reliably attracted to the App Store page, as well as to the website. Profitable — AWS monthly costs are very low for this system, so Skylark is consistently profitable throughout the year. Stable demand — This is a seasonal business, with downloads & sales reliably spiking every Winter. Happy customers — Skylark’s customers are the best! They’re happy with the product, patient when they have a problem, and they actively volunteer to help troubleshoot issues. Great growth potential — IoT and smart homes are on the rise! I see the majority of Skylark’s growth potential being through integrations with other smart thermostat manufacturers (e.g. Ecobee), and by porting the app to Android - these things are consistently requested by Skylark's users. The right buyer could grow Skylark into a fantastic niche platform business in the smart home/Internet of Things space. Ready to market — Includes a responsive, opted-in & steadily growing email subscriber list. About You To get the most out of this business as the new owner, you should: Have access to your own mobile development resources/be a mobile developer Have an interest in the Internet of Things, APIs and smart homes Be passionate about providing good support — I love Skylark’s customers, so I'm looking for someone who will take good care of them Why I’m Selling I’m not a developer myself, so I’ve decided to make way for someone better-suited to jump on this opportunity, so I can focus on other things closer to my wheelhouse (product management & growth marketing).
