What is SaaS?
Software as a service is a software licensing and delivery model in which software is licensed on a subscription basis and is centrally hosted. It is sometimes referred to as “on-demand software”, and was formerly referred to as “software plus services” by Microsoft.
There are many benefits to the SaaS model for generating online income.
Reduced time to benefit
Software as a service (SaaS) differs from the traditional model because the software (application) is already installed and configured. This reduces the time spent on installation and configuration and can reduce the issues that get in the way of the software deployment.
Lower costs
SaaS can provide beneficial cost savings since it usually resides in a shared or multi-tenant environment, where the hardware and software license costs are low compared with the traditional model.
Scaling
Another advantage is that you can rapidly scale your customer base since SaaS allows small and medium businesses to use software that otherwise they would not use due to the high cost of licensing.
Maintenance costs are reduced as well since the SaaS provider owns the environment and it is split among all customers that use that solution.
New releases (upgrades)
With SaaS, the provider upgrades the solution and it becomes available for their customers. The costs and effort associated with upgrades and new releases are lower than the traditional model that usually forces you to buy an upgrade package and install it (or pay for specialized services to get the environment upgraded).
Easy to use and perform proof-of-concepts
SaaS offerings are easy to use since they already come with baked-in best practices and samples. Users can do proof-of-concept and test the software functionality or a new release feature in advance. Also, you can have more than one instance with different versions and do a smooth migration. Even for large environments, you can use SaaS offerings to test the software before buying.
Let’s see how a Single Operated Newsletter (S.O.N.?) stacks up against a SaaS venture.
Reduced time to benefit
You already have rabid fans in place for your S.O.N. content. There are millions of them. And you only need a small amount to see the benefit of cash flow.
100 subscribers paying $30 a month will generate $3,000 a month and, perhaps, release you from a boss, and a job, that you dislike. (Plus, you do this without the heavy cost of programmers, software, or installation).
Lower costs
Despite all of the social media hype, more sales transactions are still being done via email. This makes a Single Operated Newsletter the best vehicle for your online wealth creation.

Scalability and integration
100 subscribers paying $30 a month will generate $3,000 a month and, perhaps, release you from a boss, and a job, that you dislike. And adding hundreds of more subscribers to your loyal reader base is an easy enough thing to do. PaidLetter.com can show you how to do just that.
New releases (upgrades)
You can create a S.O.N. for as many curation niches as you want.
Easy to use and perform proof-of-concepts
There are dozens of lucrative curation markets ripe for the picking. And because so few people have discovered the benefits of the S.O.N. model they are yours for the taking!
A S.O.N. is also perfect for anyone who is a bit camera shy since you never need to be in the limelight.
Instead, you will use highly profitable niches that ooze cash flow and create content that these readers (your subscribers) are aching to get their hands on.
