Seeking Feedback: Ad Space Marketplace for Startups and Solopreneurs
Hello everyone!
Many of us are trying to grow and scale our startups by trying to onboard as many users as we can. However, the one problem that we all struggle with is getting more eyes on our startups.
As a solopreneur myself the one issued I struggle with is getting users onboard and retaining them but I think I may have found the solution to my problems.
I've decided to create a platform dedicated to solopreneurs and startups.
The platform is called AdTrade.co where users can buy, sell or trade ad space!
We eliminate high cost prices of traditional advertisement by cutting out the middleman. We are a marketplace dedicated to helping startups and solopreneurs grow by providing them a transparent platform where they can directly communicate with each other.
We don't charge for any feature. The only time you are charged for is for more ad space listings.
We of course provide one ad space listing so that you can start growing your platform right from the get go.
Do you guys think this is a viable idea and would you guys sign up for it?
I really like the concept - its something I would use!
When it comes to physical ad space like billboards and vehicles, how would you ensure the advertiser shows the ad for the agreed upon time?
Good question.
Physical ad spaces like billboards are usually administered through companies. So, you would have to speak with them and exchange legal documents and contracts between A and B.
Regarding vehicles, this is a bit tricky as there is no known company or startup that is nationwide that I know of that are in charge of this.
If I were looking to place my ad on a vehicle I would make sure I'm able to verify that the vehicle did indeed keep it's promise by being local or having someone do that for me.
I would treat the other party as a company and see if they have an LLC at the least to be safe. If the vehicle owner does not have a company and prefer to be independent. I would avoid it.
