About Favoriot – Part VII: The Task of Finding the First 10 Customers

ABOUT FAVORIOT SERIES

The Challenges of Securing Favoriot’s First 10 Customers

Many say that the first breakthrough for a startup is when you get 10 paying customers. This saying holds true.

Every startup developing a product feels the pressure when struggling to get those first 10 customers, and even the very first customer can be challenging.

I still remember the moment when Favoriot received its first paid subscription. “Finally, we did it!” I exclaimed to my team with joy. We were overjoyed, envisioning continuous success. Unfortunately, the joy was short-lived.

Why Is It So Difficult?

I sat pondering, “Is our product not satisfying the customers? Or maybe it doesn’t solve their problems? Or is the price too high?” Many questions ran through my mind. I knew I had to find the answers. “We need to make this product more appealing,” I told myself.

We tried improving the product and experimented with different pricing, but the results were the same.

I found myself puzzled, “Why do ThingSpeak and Blynk have so many users?” We also offered free subscriptions like they did, but the outcome was not satisfactory.

On average, only 5% of free users would convert to paid. Although we achieved this percentage, it still did not meet our revenue targets.

A New Strategy

I began thinking of other strategies. “How about we bundle the product?” I suggested to my team.

We started combining the Favoriot platform with our IoT courses. This approach began to show success. I told myself, “This is a good start, but we can do better.”

Then, we introduced the Enterprise Favoriot IoT platform with a perpetual license. This new package attracted a lot of interest from System Integrators.

I felt this was the right move. “I hope this will bring more success to Favoriot,” I silently prayed.

Lessons Learned

This experience taught me many things. First of all, I learned that getting the first customers is indeed tough, but it is a crucial step. I always tell my team, “Never give up. Every small step is a big achievement.”

I also learned that a good product alone is not enough. “We need to understand the customers’ needs and ensure our product truly solves their problems,” I constantly remind myself.

We strive to understand our customers’ desires and requirements.

Pricing plays a crucial role as well. “A price that’s too high might scare off customers,” I realized.

We tried to find a balance between reasonable pricing and the value we offer.

Moving Forward

Now, with the new Enterprise Favoriot IoT package, we are more confident moving forward. I told my team, “This is a new beginning for Favoriot. We’ve faced many challenges, but we’ve overcome them.”

I also believe that success does not come easily. “It requires continuous effort and persistence,” I always remind myself.

We will keep working to improve our product and find new ways to attract more customers.

Hopes for the Future

I have great hopes for Favoriot. I always think, “How can we make Favoriot a leading IoT platform?” I believe with effort and dedication, we can achieve it.

Whenever I look back at our journey, I feel proud of what we have accomplished. “We’ve faced many challenges, but we never gave up,” I tell myself.

I am confident that with continuous spirit and effort, Favoriot will keep growing and achieving greater success.

Finally, I want to thank everyone who has supported us throughout this journey. “Without your support, we wouldn’t be where we are today,” I say sincerely.

We will keep striving to deliver the best and achieve more successes in the future.

This is the story behind Favoriot – a journey full of challenges, but also full of hope and opportunities. I believe that with effort and dedication, we can achieve anything we dream of.

About Favoriot – Part VI: Expanding the Business Models

The Evolution of Favoriot from B2C to B2B and Global Reach

Regenerated by Glam

When we first launched the Favoriot IoT platform, we envisioned it as a B2C service.

The idea was simple – create a platform that anyone, from students to hobbyists, could use to build IoT applications.

By targeting individuals, we could generate widespread interest and slowly build a community around our platform. I remember thinking, “If we can get people talking about Favoriot, the rest will follow.

With that mindset, we set out to promote the platform. Social media was the obvious choice. Everyone was on Facebook, YouTube was the go-to for tutorials, and newer platforms like TikTok were quickly gaining popularity.

So, we took the plunge. I took charge of the promotion, using my social media channels to spread the word. I posted on Facebook, made videos for YouTube, wrote blog posts, and even tried my hand at TikTok.

Regenerated by Glam

At first, it was exciting to see the initial reactions. People were interested; they were curious about what Favoriot could do.

But as the weeks went by, I started to feel a sense of unease. Sure, there were some engagements – likes, shares, comments – but it wasn’t translating into actual usage of the platform. I kept asking myself, “Why isn’t this working? What are we missing?

I realized that while social media was great for generating buzz, it wasn’t enough to convince people to take the next step.

I needed something more tangible that would tell people about Favoriot and show them how it could be valuable to them.

That’s when the idea of writing an eBook came to me. I’ve always enjoyed writing, so why not use that skill to create something that could educate people about IoT and subtly introduce them to Favoriot simultaneously?

IoT eBook

So, I got to work. The eBook wasn’t just about the technical aspects of IoT; it was about the broader picture – how IoT transforms industries, what it means for the future, and where Favoriot fits into this. Throughout the book, I weaved in information about the Favoriot platform, highlighting its features and how it could help users in their IoT projects.

Once the eBook was ready, we decided to offer it for free. I thought that if we could get the book into as many hands as possible, it would naturally lead to more people trying out the platform.

And it worked. The eBook started getting downloaded, not just locally, but internationally. I was amazed to see the download statistics – people from almost 120 countries had downloaded the book!

I remember sitting at my desk, looking at the numbers, and thinking, “This is it. This is the breakthrough we’ve been waiting for.

But with this new wave of international interest came a new set of challenges. The platform was designed for a general audience, but now we have users worldwide, each with unique needs.

We started receiving feedback from users who wanted more advanced features, better scalability, and the ability to use the platform in a more professional setting. It was clear that the B2C model had its limitations.

Around this time, we began exploring the idea of pivoting to a B2B model. The thought of shifting our focus was daunting, but I knew it was something we had to consider seriously.

We had to evolve if we wanted Favoriot to grow and thrive. I spent many sleepless nights pondering over the decision. “Is this the right move? What if it doesn’t work out?

Eventually, after much deliberation and discussion with the team, we decided to go for it. We introduced a B2B model where the Favoriot platform could be installed on-premise or on a private cloud.

This shift allowed us to cater to System Integrators – companies that needed a robust IoT platform to develop complex projects, manage high data transmissions, and ensure that all data was securely stored within their infrastructure.

Another critical decision was the introduction of the “perpetual” license. Unlike traditional subscription models, which required customers to pay recurring fees, this license was a one-time purchase.

Regenerated by Glam

It provided lifetime access to the platform, making it a more cost-effective option for long-term projects. I remember thinking, “This could be a game-changer.” Our customers’ cost savings were substantial, allowing them to offer end-to-end IoT solutions more quickly and at a lower cost.

This shift to B2B didn’t just open up new revenue streams for Favoriot; it also solidified our position in the market.

We were addressing a significant pain point in the industry by providing a reliable and scalable platform that didn’t require customers to build their own IoT infrastructure from scratch.

Developing an IoT platform is no small feat – it requires time, money, and expertise many companies don’t have. By offering Favoriot as a ready-made solution, we were able to fill that gap.

Since 2017, the Favoriot IoT platform has undergone many changes. What started as a simple B2C platform has evolved into a versatile solution catering to individual developers and large enterprises.

And along the way, we’ve achieved some significant milestones. One of my proudest moments was when Favoriot received MySTI certification from MOSTI, officially marking it as a Malaysian local product.

This recognition validated our efforts and positioned Favoriot as a credible and reliable IoT platform on a national level.

Looking back, I can see how far we’ve come. The journey hasn’t been easy, and there were moments when I doubted whether we would ever get to this point.

But through perseverance, adaptability, and a willingness to listen to our users, we’ve built something that we can truly be proud of.

But the story doesn’t end here. There are still many challenges ahead, primarily as we work to penetrate the Malaysian market further.

In Part VII, I’ll share more about those challenges and how we plan to overcome them.

The road ahead is long, but I’m confident that with the lessons we’ve learned and the team we have, Favoriot will continue to grow and make an impact in the IoT industry.

So, stay tuned. The journey of Favoriot is far from over, and I’m excited to see where it will take us next.

About Favoriot – Part V: Find Product-Market Fit to Survive

Finding the Right Fit: The Early Challenges and Breakthroughs of Favoriot

At Favoriot’s booth — Regenerated by Glam

I still remember how difficult it was to secure our first ten customers, even though the Favoriot Platform was offered for free initially.

Despite the offer, it wasn’t easy to attract interest. At that time, I was genuinely worried. I kept wondering, would this product succeed? Or would it just become another obsolete product forgotten shortly after its launch?

“Is all this effort going to be in vain?” That was the question that often crossed my mind. What if the product we had developed with such dedication wasn’t accepted by the market? What if all the hard work my team put in, tirelessly day and night, to make Favoriot a success, didn’t bear fruit?

I knew I couldn’t let them down. My team had given their best, and as their leader, I couldn’t allow their efforts to go to waste.

But as time went on, I felt more and more pressure to ensure that Favoriot found its rightful place in the market.

I often sat and pondered, sometimes late into the night, trying to figure out how to gain the necessary market traction. Market traction isn’t something easily achieved, especially when you’re a new player in a competitive industry like IoT.

At Favoriot’s booth — Regenerated by Glam

At first, we started by offering Favoriot to individuals. We targeted university students and freelancers who might be interested in using the platform for their projects.

But even with this strategy, the results were not what we had hoped for. I began to think that maybe our approach wasn’t quite right.

I then considered, “Perhaps we should offer this platform to university lecturers.” They had students involved in IoT projects, so maybe they would see the value in Favoriot.

But unfortunately, this effort also didn’t yield satisfying results. I began to feel anxious. “What else can we do?” I asked myself, searching for a way forward.

We then shifted our focus to offering Favoriot directly to customers. We tried introducing the platform to companies and organizations that might need IoT solutions.

However, once again, a new challenge arose. Many didn’t know how to use the platform. “Are we too early to the market?” I wondered. Maybe, at that time, awareness of IoT among customers wasn’t mature enough.

At Favoriot’s booth — Regenerated by Glam

In the startup world, there’s a concept known as “Product-Market Fit” (PMF). This is the point where your product truly meets the needs of the market.

If you don’t achieve PMF quickly, your product might fail. And I knew that if Favoriot didn’t reach PMF, there was a high chance we would have to shut down operations.

But I didn’t give up. I kept searching for the right customers, those who truly needed what Favoriot offered.

After many trials and errors, we finally found that the best customers for our platform were IoT System Integrators. These were companies or individuals who provided IoT solutions to their own customers. They needed a platform like Favoriot to build IoT applications that could meet the specific needs of their clients.

Finally, Favoriot found its way. We started offering the platform in two models – cloud-based and enterprise-based.

The cloud-based model was for customers who wanted a more flexible solution that could be accessed from anywhere. Meanwhile, the enterprise-based model was more suited for System Integrators who wanted full control over their platform.

This model came with a perpetual license and unlimited API, allowing them to build IoT applications without worrying about the high API costs typically charged by other major platforms like AWS or Azure.

With this discovery, Favoriot began to find its place in the market. I felt a bit of relief, but at the same time, I knew that the journey was far from over.

We still needed to continue innovating and ensuring that the platform remained relevant in an ever-changing industry.

But at least now, I was more confident that Favoriot had a bright future.

This isn’t the end of the story. I will continue to share our journey, how we found other customers, and how we grew Favoriot into one of the leading IoT platforms. But that will be in the next part.

Stay with me on this journey, because I believe that every step we take has its own story that can inspire those striving in the startup world.

In the next part, I will share more about who else became customers of the Favoriot IoT Platform and how we won their hearts.

About Favoriot — Part IV: Finding the Right Market Fit

Behind the Scenes of Favoriot IoT Platform — Part IV

When we developed the Favoriot IoT Platform, it wasn’t meant for everyone but just for our use. My team and I sought ways to overcome our problems managing IoT data at that time. The existing platforms did not fully meet our needs, so we developed our own.

However, when I saw foreign IoT platforms like ThingSpeak and Blynk being widely used in higher education institutions in Malaysia, I thought, “Why don’t we offer the same thing?

Our platform could also benefit students and researchers in Malaysia. We just needed to find a way to introduce Favoriot more effectively.

Whenever I was invited to give an IoT lecture at a university, I would introduce Favoriot and give students free access. I hoped these students would use our platform in their projects and expand its use.

However, reality did not match my expectations.

My main problem was that ThingSpeak and Blynk were still the preferred choices. I wondered, “Why is that?” After some investigation, I found that one of the main reasons was the lack of video tutorials and learning content on our platform.

ThingSpeak and Blynk had a lot of content that made it easy for students and researchers to understand and use their platforms.

I need to do something,” I thought. I started encouraging students or anyone using Favoriot to share their tutorial videos on YouTube. However, I realized that not many were willing to spend the time to create educational content.

Understandably, Malaysians are reluctant to create scholarly content. So, we developed several YouTube tutorials and used social media like TikTok to introduce Favoriot.

Initially, only students used Favoriot. I often wondered, “Will this effort succeed? Can we compete with the bigger platforms?” However, I kept trying and did not give up. Gradually, the results started to show.

Students and many external organizations use Favoriot for various applications in agriculture, industry, smart cities, security, etc.

I feel very grateful. “Alhamdulillah… this effort will not stop here.” We continue to introduce several unique ways to use Favoriot that differ from what ThingSpeak or Blynk offers. We continually strive to improve our platform and ensure it meets users’ needs better.

This story is not over yet.

I have much more to share about our journey in developing the Favoriot IoT Platform.

Stay tuned for Part V, where I will discuss our challenges and successes.

About Favoriot — Part III: The Growing Pains

The Story Behind Favoriot IoT Platform — Part III

In 2019, we began offering our self-developed IoT services. However, no one wanted to use it. I still remember how hard it was to get our first customers. We offered it for free to the first ten customers, but that wasn’t easy.

Why doesn’t anyone want to use our platform?” I asked myself almost every night. “Is there something wrong with our product, or is there something we missed?

It turned out the problem wasn’t with our product. The real issue was that most people didn’t know how to use an IoT platform. They lacked knowledge about IoT. It was a hard truth to accept, but I knew we had to do something.

As an Industry Advisory Panel member at several universities, I started suggesting changes in their curriculum. “We need to teach students how to use IoT technology more systematically,” I said in meetings with lecturers and deans. I hoped these changes would help increase students’ understanding of IoT.

Slowly, I saw changes happening. Many universities have started offering more systematic IoT courses. However, I faced a significant challenge when I saw many students choosing Blynk and ThingSpeak as their primary choices for their final-year projects.

Why aren’t they using Favoriot?” I wondered again. “What does our platform lack?

I knew I couldn’t give up. I had to keep working hard to introduce the Favoriot IoT Platform to the public. I began organizing many seminars and workshops to introduce this platform. I would stand in front of the participants each time and passionately explain the advantages of using Favoriot.

This platform is not just for students but also for professionals and large companies,” I always said. “It can be used for larger R&D projects and other commercial projects.

The Favoriot IoT Platform started to become well-known slowly. Users began to see the potential and benefits offered by our platform.

Finally, in 2024, we managed to get 80% of Favoriot platform users from Malaysia. Out of 8,800 users, the majority were from our own country.

I felt proud of this achievement. “We did it,” I told my team. “We have proven that we can compete with other platforms.

The Favoriot IoT Platform is now used to collect data for larger R&D projects and other commercial projects. Our journey is still long, but this success gives me confidence that we are on the right track.

About Favoriot — Part II: Building the Products

The Story Behind Favoriot IoT Platform — Part II

See the previous post for Part I.

The Favoriot IoT Platform was not our first commercial IoT product. Before this IoT Platform, we had developed two other IoT products, namely Raqib and Favorsense, but both failed in the market.

I still remember the first time we introduced Raqib. “This product will bring a revolution,” I told my team. However, reality was not as beautiful as imagined. We faced various unexpected challenges, from technical issues to marketing.

Favorsense, although it had a good concept, still couldn’t attract user interest. I sat in the office, pondering our failures. “What went wrong? Where was the mistake?” I asked myself. Two products, two failures. It wasn’t a good statistic.

However, behind Raqib’s failure, there was one component that survived — the Favoriot IoT Platform. We realized that this platform had great potential. “This platform can be used by anyone who wants to develop their own IoT products,” I told my team. With renewed enthusiasm, we decided to shift our focus. We started offering the Favoriot IoT Platform for free.

But, even though the platform was free, many didn’t know how to use it. “Why aren’t they using it?” I asked. “We’ve published many videos and info, but still, many don’t know how to use it.” It was really disappointing.

We didn’t give up. I knew there was a way to solve this problem. “We need to give them more guidance,” I told the team. So, we started offering IoT courses using the Favoriot IoT Platform. These courses were designed to help users understand and apply the platform in their projects.

This step turned out to be successful. Now, more than 16 universities and polytechnics in Malaysia have been using the Favoriot IoT Platform for their students’ final-year projects. “This is a major achievement,” I said proudly. These students learn about IoT and gain practical experience using a real platform.

I often visit these universities to give lectures and see how students are using our platform. “This is great, how do you use Favoriot for this project?” I asked a student. Seeing their joy and enthusiasm gives me immense satisfaction. I know we are on the right track.

Now, we are working on introducing the Favoriot IoT Platform in foreign universities. “The global market is the next step,” I told the team. We are discussing with several universities abroad and hope to see students worldwide using our platform soon.

However, this journey is not without challenges. I often ask myself, “How can we continuously improve and enhance this platform?” In the ever-evolving technology industry, we need always to stay ahead.

Every night, before sleeping, I reflect on our journey. “We have learned a lot from our failures,” I tell myself. From those failures, the Favoriot IoT Platform was born and is now Malaysia’s main pulse in IoT education.

This success is not just mine but the entire Favoriot team’s. “Thank you, everyone,” I always tell them. Without their commitment and hard work, we wouldn’t be where we are today.

I know our journey is still long. “This is just the beginning,” I often tell the team. With an undying spirit, we will continue to move forward, facing new challenges and achieving greater success.

We have proven that with effort and dedication, failure is not the end but the beginning of something greater. The Favoriot IoT Platform is solid proof that from failure, success can be born.

About Favoriot – Part I: The Beginning

ABOUT FAVORIOT SERIES

The Story Behind Favoriot IoT Platform – Part I

I still remember when we started developing the Favoriot IoT Platform back in 2017. At that time, we were in a small room with only a handful of dedicated staff.

The original idea came from the need to create a platform that could support our first IoT product, called Raqib.

Can we really compete with giants like AWS and Azure?” I often asked myself.

We knew the challenge wasn’t small. Many outsiders didn’t know us and doubted the capabilities of this newly developed platform. However, we remained determined. We were confident in our technology’s potential and capabilities.

In 2019, we decided to offer the Favoriot IoT Platform to the public for free. “Perhaps this is the best way to attract attention and build an early user base,” I thought. However, the response we received was very disappointing. Only a handful showed interest.

We need to do something more than this,” I discussed with the team. “We must find a way to introduce this platform to more people.

At that time, the idea of offering IoT courses emerged. We realized that one of the best ways to attract users was by teaching them about IoT’s importance and utility while introducing our platform. These courses not only allowed participants to learn about IoT but also to try out the Favoriot IoT Platform themselves.

Will they be interested? What if no one registers?” Many questions played out in my mind.

Alhamdulillah, this step bore fruit. Through the IoT courses, we introduced the Favoriot IoT Platform to more users. The response we received was very encouraging. We saw a significant increase in the number of users of our platform. Today, the Favoriot IoT Platform has over 8800 users from 120 countries.

I can’t believe we’ve come this far,” I shared my joy with the team. “This is just the beginning. We still have a lot to achieve.

Now, we aspire to expand to neighboring countries. I am confident that the Favoriot IoT Platform can achieve even greater success with effort and dedication.

Ready for the next phase?” I asked the team. Their answer was clear – we are ready to conquer the IoT world.

This is a glimpse of the story behind the development of the Favoriot IoT Platform. Each step was taken with great care and a high fighting spirit. We believe that with hard work and determination, nothing is impossible.

Stay tuned for our journey in Part II, where I will share more challenges and successes we’ve experienced along the way.

Pivoting Your Products to Find Success

STARTUP STORIES

A Personal Account

What’s the best strategy for building a business? Should we focus on a single product or diversify our offerings? Is it wiser to invest all our resources in a single endeavor or spread them across multiple ventures?

These questions have haunted me since the inception of FAVORIOT. As an entrepreneur in the IoT (Internet of Things), I’ve learned that no one-size-fits-all answer exists.

The journey of building products is fraught with uncertainty, and pivots are an inevitable part of the process.

Allow me to take you through our experience at FAVORIOT, where each product we developed taught us valuable lessons and shaped our path forward.

The First Step: Raqib

Our first product, Favorwatch, was envisioned as a solution for elderly care. The idea was to provide a device that could monitor the health and safety of senior citizens, allowing their families to have peace of mind. The market seemed promising, and we were excited about the potential impact Raqib could have.

But things didn’t go as planned.

Dr. Mazlan, the initial feedback isn’t as positive as we hoped,” my colleague mentioned one day. The product was functional, but the adoption rate was not meeting our expectations.

It became clear that our vision needed adjustment.

Let’s rethink our target market,” I suggested during a team meeting. “What if we pivot Raqib for Hajj pilgrims instead? They face unique challenges and could benefit from a similar monitoring solution.

This pivot breathed new life into Raqib.

By targeting Hajj pilgrims, we found a market that genuinely needed our product.

It was a critical lesson in the importance of flexibility and market understanding.

Expanding Horizons: Favorsense

After the experience with Raqib, we were more cautious and confident in our ability to pivot when necessary.

Our second product, Favorsense, aimed to help local authorities manage public complaints. The idea was to create a platform to collect data, identify pain points, and help build smarter cities.

Do you think this will work?” I asked my team during one of our brainstorming sessions. “We must ensure Favorsense is versatile enough to adapt to different needs.

The initial target was local authorities, but as we developed Favorsense, we saw its potential applications expand.

Universities, housing developers, and enforcement agencies showed interest in using the platform to manage their data and complaints.

Look at this feedback from the campus trial,” one of my team members said, handing me a report.

The response was overwhelmingly positive.

It was clear that Favorsense could serve various markets, not just local authorities.

This flexibility in application became a cornerstone of Favorsense’s success.

We learned that building a product with adaptability in mind could open doors to markets we hadn’t initially considered.

The Game Changer: Favoriot IoT Platform

Our third product, the Favoriot IoT platform, was conceived to be the backbone of IoT applications.

We offered it as a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), enabling developers to build and manage their IoT solutions easily.

This is our chance to make a significant impact,” I told my team. “The IoT platform will be essential for any IoT deployment, and we want Favoriot to be the go-to choice.

The response was incredible.

Over 8,200 users from 121 countries started using the platform, and the numbers kept growing.

Our Favoriot IoT platform quickly became more successful than our previous products.

Dr. Mazlan, the traction is beyond what we expected,” my business development lead said, showing me the user growth charts.

It was a testament to the platform’s utility and the global need for such a solution.

The success of the Favoriot IoT platform reinforced the idea that a core, indispensable product could drive significant growth.

Every IoT deployment needs a robust platform, and we positioned Favoriot as that essential component.

Reflections on Strategy

So, what’s the best strategy to build a business?

Through my journey with FAVORIOT, I’ve realized that the answer lies in a balance between focus and flexibility.

Starting with a single product allows for concentrated effort and resource allocation, but being open to pivots and diversification can lead to broader opportunities and increased resilience.

Dr. Mazlan, do you think we should develop another product?” one of my team members asked recently.

We should always be open to new ideas,” I replied. “But we must ensure that each new product aligns with our core vision and leverages our existing strengths.

Building a successful business is a continuous learning, adapting, and innovating process.

Our journey with Raqib, Favorsense, and the Favoriot IoT platform has taught us that while the first product might not always hit the mark, the ability to pivot and expand can lead to unforeseen success.

The Road Ahead

As we move forward, FAVORIOT remains committed to developing solutions that address real-world problems and drive the adoption of IoT technologies.

Each product we create is a step towards a smarter, more connected world.

I believe our best work is still ahead of us,” I often tell my team. “Let’s keep pushing boundaries and exploring new possibilities.

The journey is as important as the destination.

At FAVORIOT, we’re excited to continue this journey, one innovative product at a time.
