⬤ You are here
Before you touch anyone else's home. Liability shield between Haven work and your personal assets. Check your state's filing site, most are online and done in a day.
Get the main page live. Just the landing page, not the product sub-pages. Cloudflare Pages or Netlify, both free. Point the domain.
Every CTA on the site points here. Cloudflare email routing to your personal inbox is free, or Proton custom domain if you want to eat your own cooking.
Screenshot your HA dashboard, your Meshtastic map, your Immich library. This is your proof of concept. Real system, real house, real dogs being tracked.
Someone you know. Free. Start simple: lights, locks, basic automations, dashboard on their phone. Learn what takes longer than you expected. Learn what questions they ask that you didn't anticipate.
Haven is a real business with a live website and a real customer
After install 1, write down everything you did and how long it took. By install 3, this becomes your Standard Operating Procedure. What hardware you recommend, what order you configure things, what you test before you leave.
Mix of friends and family. At least one non-technical person. Charge a small setup fee on 3-5 so you can test whether people will actually pay. Watch what breaks in the first week. This is where you learn the real product.
Define in writing what "dedicated support" means for Haven tier. Response time, hours, what's included vs what's a separate visit. This protects your time and your sanity.
Every claim on the product pages about Ring, Google, Life360, etc. needs a link to its source. FTC filings, news articles, company policy pages. Your legal protection for when someone gets mad about what you wrote.
Even a text message from your beta installs saying "this is cool" is gold. Ask permission to quote them. First-person words from real people beat any copy you or I write.
Haven has real customers, a repeatable process, and social proof
When you've actually done a Vault setup for someone, that page goes live. When you've configured Haven Family on a real kid's phone, that page goes live. Pages earn their spot by being real.
After 5 installs, you know how long each takes, what hardware costs, what your margins look like. Build a real spreadsheet. How many subscribers to match DoorDash income? To exceed it? That number tells you when this becomes your job.
The hosted solution for non-technical people. This is where the real money lives, but it also means running infrastructure. Scope what it would take: VPS costs, multi-tenant HA, backup strategy, what you'd charge.
By now you have a real product, real customers, real pages, and a real roadmap. That's what attracts good developers. Not a pitch deck and equity promises, an actual working thing they can see and touch.
You designed them already. Get a small batch printed once the site is live and you're doing installs. Hand them out like candy.
Haven is generating recurring revenue and attracting collaborators
Pre-configured hardware bundles. A Haven Hub (mini PC with HAOS pre-loaded), mesh nodes, camera kits. Sell the whole stack, not just the service.
Train other installers in your area. Licensed electricians, handyman services. Haven becomes a platform other people deliver, not just you in a truck.
Release your blueprints, dashboards, and themes publicly. Build community. The best marketing for a privacy product is transparency about how it works.
By this point you've done enough installs to know what people actually want from these. Ship them as defined services with pricing, not just vision pages.
Haven is a platform, not just a person
