A payment form that supports subscriptions and one time payments. It has options for taxes and it comes in English French and Spanish. Moonclerk but with taxes and languages. Chargify with a beautiful form and languages.

The secret to success and not bleed cash is business 101:
- Sales and Marketing all the way. Nothing else.
- Go to $10 from the beginning (you are starbucks of lemonade)
- Accept: free cash, PR, licenses, new locations
- Reject: Anything that gives away equity or royalties
260k in cash 15.9M valuation

Great post but it sounds a lot like trying to sell that peek service. Would've been great to see what actions were taken to improve the site rather than wait to the new design launch.

HN is the HN for Biotech and all tech and everything else. Nobody buys tailored newspapers.

Hey People Food, some feedback on your post:
- 300 heads? the word "people" is in your startup name and you just called people "heads". Not nice.
- "Catering" probably kills this for most readers. Catering is used with "events". I'm sure you would deliver as long as a company orders what 2 or more? 3 or more? Just phrase it like that so that anyone in a startup feels empowered to submit their company.
- Your ask is weak. I'd filter for the ideal customer of yours: startups with 5+ (whatever) people and also what the limit is - will you give meals for free to every single company that emails you? or just 5-7? and that's how many free lunches? and per company? I'd be specific. First come first serve? etc.
- Send you (the founder) an email at support @ ?? not personal
Please don't misunderstand me, this sounds awesome. It's just that how it's written right now it seems a bit rushed and prone for disappointed HN readers :)

"Seevibes provides a comprehensive analysis of the Facebook and Twitter audiences of a TV show and to demonstrate their affinity with a brand, thereby enabling the optimization of a media plan and promotional projects."
Sounds pretty cool but I wonder if Twitter / Facebook can easily enable this in their analytics? I guess they can also just buy SeeVibes.
On another note - I wonder if Nielsen uses social media to measure because if not, they're behind.
