Building your LoRaWAN business
summary
Claims a viable business built on The Things Network and The Things Industries by selling network builds plus annual maintenance and services, not just hardware. Provides numbers: 40% of Australian gateways deployed by meshed, growth from four to thirty councils in months, and a people-counting device sold out in a week (one council bought 50). Shows concrete results: bin-collection cuts of nearly 50%, starter kits with gateway sensors dashboard and maintenance, and repeatable land-and-expand sales that turn POCs into sticky municipal networks.
