Lottery software professionally written with polish and understanding of the market can be sold in enough quanity to make everyone happy. You have only to wear well the many hats of the one man business.
Having watched the top ten lottery software continue to exist for all this time and having watched Lottohat enter the field and do well. I can tell you the failures are a combination of clunky product and a lack of one or more skills needed to run a business properly. This includes having some money to invest in a marketing strategy for a marketable product.
Sales here on Lottery Post should be considered in part a beta test soft rollout where things can be fixed and reworked so all your customers aren't asking for refunds when you're paying for advertising, clicks and affiliates. BobP
You seem to know a lot about this business. Do you have any "installed base" numbers for the various products? It's probably very difficult to get a hold of, so it may not be available. But the sound of your post above implies that you might have some inside knowledge.
