Hi there,
Today I saw an offer of a marketplace platform offering a 30 day trial. Which made me think... what if there was a sweetspot for a marketplace which in 30 days and some paid ads/biz dev demand and supply would start to grow organically. Fantastic opportunity to try and fail fast.
First of, the marketplace monetization: fee on rental, fee on purchase, fee on advertisment
And audience: b2b, b2c, c2c
Competition: something niche or high-ticket for which ebay/craiglists do not have enough filters or do not make you feel comfortable
Some wild-thoughts of stuff nice enough that could work:
