In addition to my full-time teaching job, I have to teach private maths lessons for the well-being of my family.
My income from teaching dance is seasonal. Only in my spare time can I devote money and time to my hobby of developing a dance teaching app.
The money I get from donations allows me to reduce the number of side jobs I take, giving me more time to spend on it.
Currently, having someone else do your animations – even at a friendly price – costs a lot of money and time because of the motion corrections that have to be made afterwards. If I did them myself, I could get the quality right faster, but I would have to buy software licences.
In addition to the animation programs mentioned above, I also need paid plugins for the homepage.
Running the website and maintaining the developer accounts is an ongoing monthly/ annual cost.
I do not wish to place any advertisements in the program, except for promoting my own dance training application features.
Applications are released separately, per dance type. All apps teach you the basic steps for free. Within the application, there is the option to purchase beginner, intermediate and advanced courses.
As the app is free to try and free of external advertising, no revenue is expected from mass downloads and installations. Thus, my continued operations will require donations.
If I reach the number of customers that will generate sufficient income, I will stop fundraising.
