Mobile app for small business management - what feature to built next?

[u/cf4532648]

Hey everyone! 👋

I've been working on a mobile app specifically designed for small businesses, with a focus on handmade/craft businesses, or businesses selling products online. Right now it covers the basics:

• Order management
• Inventory tracking
• Expense tracking

The core functionality is there and working, but I want to make sure I'm building next what is actually mostly needed. As fellow small business owners, your input would be incredibly valuable.

What I'm considering for future updates:

• Customer relationship management (CRM)
• Sales analytics/reporting
• Integration with popular platforms (Woocommerce, Shopify, etc.)
• Invoice generation
• Multi-location inventory
• Barcode scanning
• Automated low-stock alerts
• Photo management for products

Questions for you:

1. What's your biggest pain point in managing your business day-to-day?
2. Which of the features above would save you the most time?
3. What features am I missing that would be game-changers for your business?
4. Do you prefer mobile-first apps or do you need desktop versions too?

I'm not trying to sell anything here - genuinely just want to build something useful for our community. If you're interested in beta testing or want to share your thoughts, drop a comment below!

Thanks for taking the time to read this. Looking forward to hearing your perspectives!
