video interview with the owner of Flippa, 99Designs and SitePoint
I sent this bit of content to my subscribers... but wanted to share here.
I know this is primarily a forum for info product launches (much of them in "IM" land) but I think looking at different business models is extremely useful for standing out from the herd...
====================================
Flippa.com is where Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg's
first domain (FaceMash.com) went up for sale on.
99Designs.com has been featured in a dozen business
magazines and even in 4-Hour Workweek.
SitePoint.com is the first newsletter I personally ever
signed up to. And talking to other online business owners,
it's one of the first they remember as well. It's been
around for a long time.
All of them are properties of one Vancouver-entrepreneur...
He got started at age 14, made his first mill*ion by
age 22 and today is the a very savvy netpreneur.
My favorite part (besides the fact that he's yet another
Vancouver-bred online innovator) is that he builds
communities and web properties, not a "guru" status.
You won't recognize his name because he's not trying
to sell you his latest tactics. He and his company simply
employ those tactics and build very successful online brands.
