Flippa or look for a website broker to handle the sale for you. Typically a broker would take 10%-30% depending on a number of factors.


quite interesting


Thanks for sharing!


Thanks for the feedback. Were you interviewing for a sales job?


Thanks for the reply. Business casual it is. Do you have an idea what the carrying quota per month/quarter would be?


No idea, I haven't worked for a sales heavy tech company before.


That seems fair. If you are looking to go ahead with the sale feel free to send me an email (fraser at username dot com). I have brokered a few deals for companies making 100k+/year.


I like the idea. I was confused when I searched Toronto and the top result had a price but the rest didn't.

My question is how scalable is this? Is the idea to eventually integrate hotel listings?


Localos can publish their rates or only provide personalized offers for travellers, which are usually opaque. So in Toronto's case, only one localo has decided to publish their prices. We do not plan to integrate hotel listings since our current focus are the long tail accommodations. Any local is able to list his/her place in our marketplace, so we think there is enough room to grow.


I think you should be looking at the large picture here. Yes the local market makes sense to start but the idea is to scale the business up to take a % of a billion dollar industry not a cottage industry with say $100 mill total market.


yes.


I'll take nameego.com and wearstartups.com


Sure. Email iworkforthem [at] gmail DOT com with your GoDaddy Account ID. I will transfer it to you.


Pls provide me with the email associated with godaddy #id.
