This was great, I actually built and sold a couple of directories site many years ago but they were local niche directories for brick and mortar businesses like hairstylists and I did one for chiropractors. This was at the time when the local marketers were renting out lead generation sites before Google jumped into the business. I have one question if you are not an expert in something that you can easily build a directory site in like the example you gave us what is your recommendations for content generation and coming up with niches?
Hey Devon, I’m curious about how you brokered those deals to sell the directories for brick-and-mortar businesses. I’m bullish on the idea that directories for those types of businesses are back in style.
I’m planning on starting in states that I’m most familiar with the local business landscape and work from there.
Would you be open to a 15-30 min chat about your experience? I’m looking to provide value as well to help you with any challenges too.
Awesome stuff as always! Thank you!
You're welcome.
If I wanted to build a directory of pre-Seed to seed companies that an investor would like to invest in…would that be a good idea?
Totally. My buddy Gonz built something just like this at seedtable.com
