Rate my idea, please.
The work itself for me would be pretty straight forward: Create a new site on WPMU, slap on the selected theme and customize the admin panel.
Now they would pay a set-up fee and a monthly fee for hosting/maintenance, but the point would be that when registering for my service they select their sites' look and feel, but do not get custom coding nor technical support, strictly slightly modified themes and plugins only with custom documentation and tutorials. Maybe a possibility for tech support for a pretty steep rate, if they get completely lost.
The problem I have with this is that nowadays it is possible to get a site, although limited in customizations, for next to nothing and get it set up automatically whereas my system would need me manually setting the stuff up and initially offer almost as limited customization features.
So instead spending a few bucks (I'm not in US and we have a large national company over here offering small business websites for 10 euros a month) and getting a professional looking, responsive site with tech support and ability to build the site for yourself instantly, they'd have to "build" their site using a form (although very graphic and nice looking one), wait for their site to be activated and pay a set-up fee as well as monthly fee without tech support.
They would of course be able to customize their site however they want after activated, so it will be more customizable than the big competitor I mentioned earlier and I might throw a couple extra features as staples (little SEO tweaks and/or mailing list system) there as well. But is it worth it? Will my service offer too little and be too "old-fashioned"?
Sorry for the long post, the language and the possibility that I did not make myself clear. Still, I'm looking for opinions and views on this, so every input is appreciated.
