“Templates have limitations. It’s better to find a SaaS for your needs.”
Most SaaS are closed-source businesses. They too have limitations. But you can’t tailor their interface to your needs.
“It’s hard to differentiate.”
While the core is the same. You can add a “service” to stand out. It’s harder to copy a 1:1 call, cohort-based course or community.
“These templates are easy to clone.”
Second Brain is a popular template type. Easlo sold 4,640 copies. Thomas Frank made $760,000 with Ultimate Brain. Simon sold 1,902 copies of the Life OS bundle. Do not fear the competition. Distribution is what matters.
