Let’s fold in the Dealer Management Software (DMS) opportunity, then layer in early revenue projections (first 90 days with Bayne AI lead gen fully firing), and TAM/SAM/SOM (Total Addressable Market, Serviceable Available Market, Serviceable Obtainable Market = realistic slice). I’ll stay sober and grounded, not hype-y.


Expanded Roadmap with Dealer Management Software

1. Funeral / Mortuary SaaS CRM

Market reality: ~19,000 funeral homes in the U.S., most running on clunky legacy software. Average SaaS cost in the sector is $200–$600/mo.

  • TAM (U.S.): $80M–$200M annually.

  • Realistic slice (first 2 years): 1% = 190 homes ≈ $800K–$1.2M ARR.

  • 90-day revenue with Bayne AI lead gen: Target 10–15 homes onboarded @ $300/mo = $3K–$5K/mo. Achievable because sales cycle is trust-based but sticky once onboard.


2. Bayne AI Auto Trader (Tracker + Membership)

Market reality: Retail trading education/signals is saturated but thriving. Millions of active traders on Robinhood/Webull.

  • TAM (U.S.): $1B+ market (just counting signal/membership groups).

  • Realistic slice (first 2 years): 0.05% = ~5,000 members ≈ $1.5M ARR at $25/mo average.

  • 90-day revenue: With Bayne AI outreach, ~100–200 early members is realistic = $2.5K–$5K/mo. Lower retention until credibility builds, but volume is possible quickly.


3. Dealer Management Software (Texas-first)

Market reality: ~17,000 independent auto dealers in Texas alone. DMS systems range $500–$1,500/mo depending on features (CRM, e-signature, SMS, inventory, financing).

  • TAM (Texas): ~$150M annually. U.S. TAM: $1.5B+.

  • Realistic slice (first 2 years): 0.5% in Texas = ~85 dealers ≈ $800K ARR.

  • 90-day revenue: 5–10 small dealerships onboarded @ $500/mo = $2.5K–$5K/mo. Faster close than funeral homes because they bleed daily from bad CRM + need SMS/MMS. Bayne AI outreach is powerful here (dealers respond to calls and texts fast).


4. PHOD.biz (Local Vendor Hub)

Market reality: Vendor directories are crowded, but localized “network + deals + ticketing” has teeth. Think Yelp + Groupon + Chamber of Commerce + your ticketing edge.

  • TAM (Houston + regional SMBs): $50M+ annually (if counting memberships and ad placement).

  • Realistic slice (first 2 years): 1% = $500K ARR.

  • 90-day revenue: ~25–40 vendors at $50–$100/mo = $1.5K–$3K/mo.


5. SMS/MMS SaaS (USA Focus)

Market reality: U.S. SMS marketing market >$12B annually. Clients with 10K+ contacts pay $1K–$5K/mo in credits. Throughput + compliance is the moat.

  • TAM (U.S.): $12B+.

  • Realistic slice (first 2 years): 0.01% = $1.2M ARR.

  • 90-day revenue: Land 2–3 promoters/dealerships @ $1K–$2K/mo each = $3K–$6K/mo.


6. Bayne AI (Automation / Perceived AGI)

Market reality: Broadest TAM, but realistically niche (automation consulting + agent tools) first. SMB automation consulting market ≈ $5B annually.

  • Realistic slice (first 2 years): Small consulting base = $250K–$500K ARR.

  • 90-day revenue: 2–3 consulting retainers @ $1K–$2K/mo = $2K–$5K/mo.


90-Day Revenue Snapshot (Conservative)

Assuming Bayne AI lead gen pushes 1,000+ outreach touches/month across email/SMS/calls:

  • Funeral SaaS: $3K–$5K

  • Auto Trader Memberships: $2.5K–$5K

  • Dealer Management Software: $2.5K–$5K

  • PHOD.biz: $1.5K–$3K

  • SMS/MMS SaaS: $3K–$6K

  • Bayne AI Consulting: $2K–$5K

Total realistic 90-day monthly run rate: $14.5K–$29K/month.


Order of Focus (Adjusted with DMS in play)

  1. Funeral SaaS CRM – already cash flowing, sticky niche, credibility established.

  2. Dealer Management Software (Texas) – fast close, high pain point, scalable.

  3. Bayne AI Auto Trader – builds community + membership cash flow.

  4. PHOD.biz – regional play, steady but slower ramp.

  5. SMS/MMS SaaS – compliance heavy but high margin once stable.

  6. Bayne AI (Perceived AGI) – moonshot; build modules along the way.


The Realism Clause

Every market above is big enough to sustain a 7-figure ARR company. The difference is sales cycle + stickiness. Funeral homes and dealers are sticky clients once onboarded. Traders and promoters churn harder, but they scale faster. By sequencing sticky first → scalable next → moonshot last, we get the survival cash flow and the growth shots.


 

Market Breakdown & Revenue Outlook

Product / Service U.S. TAM (Total Market) Realistic Slice (2 yrs) 90-Day Revenue (Monthly Run Rate) Notes
Funeral SaaS CRM $80M–$200M 1% = 190 homes ≈ $800K–$1.2M ARR $3K–$5K Already profitable, sticky clients, trust-driven but once onboard, they don’t churn.
Dealer Mgmt. Software (Texas-first) $1.5B+ (Texas ≈ $150M) 0.5% TX slice = 85 dealers ≈ $800K ARR $2.5K–$5K Dealers bleed from poor CRM; SMS/MMS integration is huge selling point.
Bayne AI Auto Trader (Tracker + Memberships) $1B+ (education/signal groups) 0.05% = ~5,000 users ≈ $1.5M ARR $2.5K–$5K Fast membership growth, but retention hinges on credibility and proof of returns.
PHOD.biz Vendor Hub $50M+ (regional SMB memberships/ads) 1% = $500K ARR $1.5K–$3K Steady community revenue, not explosive. Ticketing + deals are differentiators.
SMS/MMS SaaS (USA) $12B+ 0.01% = $1.2M ARR $3K–$6K High-volume promoters, dealerships, festivals. Strong margin, compliance is the only brake.
Bayne AI (Automation / AGI) $5B+ (automation consulting SMBs) Small base = $250K–$500K ARR $2K–$5K Longest burn, but credibility grows if early modules (auto-callers, bots) are released.

90-Day Combined Revenue Potential

$14.5K – $29K per month
(assuming Bayne AI lead gen running SMS, calls, and email outreach across all verticals)


Order of Focus (Execution Path)

  1. Funeral SaaS CRM – expand first (already works, fastest cash).

  2. Dealer Management Software (Texas) – next, fast close, sticky market.

  3. Bayne AI Auto Trader – memberships + community revenue.

  4. PHOD.biz – build regionally, community credibility.

  5. SMS/MMS SaaS – compliance + throughput sorted, then scale.

  6. Bayne AI (AGI) – moonshot, modules along the way keep progress visible.
