If we lower transportation costs in the last mile of delivery using deliverbot, then the transaction coss of a personal product drop dramatically. Yes, lets talk about my version of Brad Templeton's idea of deliverbot. This little hybrid is a flat body vehicle that carries 1 sq ft packages, and delivers them curbside. It can do that for a buck over a square mile radius.
So, you see, if my specialty is, say french pastry, then all I need is 200 housholds in my square mile who by $40/ month.Delivery costs might be $8 dollars from that household flow. My cash flow is 8,000 / month. Dropping transportation costs greatly reduces he cost of specialization in the information age.
Households can pick and choose services, some just purchasing laundry services on line. For a buck, my service can deliver my clean work clothes and breakfast to my curb. Boo times in small scale production and services.
