"I'm an aspiring actor and need all the free time I can get to attend auditions and be on the film set on shooting days"

Original post

Ask HN: I'm an actor. I need an SaaS idea that allows me to act full-time

I&#x27;m not looking for the &quot;next big thing&quot; idea. This is purely me getting sick of waiting tables and having to clock in, having a fixed work schedule, etc. and wanting to utilize my coding skills to build a passive income engine. I&#x27;m an aspiring actor and need all the free time I can get to attend auditions and be on the film set on shooting days.<p>I started and still run a daily deal platform (basically Shopify for Groupon clone sites) that made me sufficient passive income (~$1.5k&#x2F;mo) for a number of years, and I had a blast just travelling, chilling, playing video games, hosting parties, etc. from 2012-2014 while my bills get paid. Unfortunately, I&#x27;m really unwilling to work on the idea anymore, and the market is shrinking I believe, and revenue is suffering now. I&#x27;m not sure if I&#x27;m disinterested because it&#x27;s not growing anymore, or it&#x27;s not growing anymore because I&#x27;m disinterested. Either way, it&#x27;s just a whole big mess of code right now that I&#x27;d rather not work on anymore.<p>I need a new idea that:<p>1) Can be coded up and iterated a number of times in 3 months;<p>2) Makes $2,000&#x2F;mo in recurring revenue;<p>3) Can preferably be sold to small businesses who don&#x27;t have high expectations (or any arbitrage-like market where small effort is disproportionately rewarded; sometimes waiting tables is also like that -- we occasionally get big tips for almost negligible work); and<p>4) Can be maintained on 10-20 hours a week of work (i.e. fixing bugs, adding features, customer service).<p>Anyone has any idea?
