4.5 Sell it: setting up a business's app

Owners don't buy an app. They buy the leak fixed.

You seeWhat you sellWhat the owner hears
"The money doesn't add up"The till, stock and closing the dayKnow every cedi, every night
A booking book full of crossings outCalendar, deposits, paid in fullNo more empty chairs
A shelf of repairs and "is it ready?" callsJobs with steps and an Overdue listNothing forgotten
Canopies that come back lateRentals with late feesLate fees charged, every time

The package: Run the business. The app set up for how they work, the team with their roles, the main work page (till, calendar, board or rentals), training for the owner and staff, and two check-ins.

Pricing. Count your hours (visits, setup, training, check-ins) times your hourly rate: that's your lowest price. Then think about what the leak costs the owner each month. Price between the two. As a guide for Ghana in 2026, this package is often GH₵1,500 to 5,000, depending on products, staff and branches.

Your fee and Lynk's costs are separate. You invoice your fee. The business pays Lynk for what it uses, from its own account. Write both in your quote.

Find your first clients: your street, your market, your church. Ask one question: How do you know at night that all the money came in?
