Comment on Sortfolio: Going once, going twice...parent

Comments

Wedding planners, photographers, florists, interior designers and architects have no idea who 37signals is. Consequently they won't be fazed in the slightest by a simplistic job board with relatively poor usability entering their respective markets.

Furthermore, even if they knew who 37signals was - that brand is removed from the product after the sale.

Alternatively, if you seriously believe the success of your job board is due to technical excellence and would map to other markets. Why would someone buy the tech for half a million dollars instead of replicating it within a few months for under 100k dollars? Using the very same tech staff that he will need anyway to operate it?
