Micro ISV

Definition of a Micro ISV.  Extract from Wikipedia:

”

A Micro-ISV (abbr. mISV or uISV), a term coined by Eric Sink, is an independent software vendor with just one software developer. In such an environment the company owner develops software, manages sales and does public relations.

The term has come to mean more than just a “one-man shop,” but any ISV with more than 10 employees is generally not considered a Micro-ISV. Small venture capital funded software shops are also generally not considered micro ISVs.

While it is common to associate Micro ISV’s with downloadable desktop software trials, many Micro ISV’s also produce server side applications – SAS (Software as a Service) and a variety of other business models.
