Key Takeaways: Build Supply Side First Use the better NPS score of one side to create the network effect on the other side. If its hard to convince the suppliers, it a good sign.

[@ericsalazar6946]

I think the initial scope or audience that one is trying to craft a solution for is the most important part when first attempting to gain marketplace traction. This way one can gain insight as to whether or not their solution is valid or more importantly, if people are willing to spend their money or their time on the product or solution. If one has correctly penetrated their beach head market, then the next phase would be to scale according to the demand and the resources that are available to them.

I like the "winning" definition. Great lecture!

[@RonWilliams-Hoodle]

Some excellent insights here. Thank you.

I just launched a marketplace 3 months ago. It's really difficult to find great talent that sees the vision. Has it been the same for others?

[@corail53]

Honestly it sounds like you are trying to hire for the cheapest possible prices. Talent doesn't care about Vision anymore - so many have been burnt by startups over the past decade- they want competitive compensation for work rendered because they know 95% of startups will go under within 5 years. So if you cannot afford to hire the talent you are looking for and require - you might want to think about how you can (get some funding) or look into different avenues to acquire talent (just expect it to not be great because they will most likely be new or freelancers).

[@emmanuelr710]

@@corail53 that's a pretty wild guess loaded with your own bias' based on the info I gave.

[@MikeWilliamsYoroomie]

Great conversation!

[@ezraokorie2363]

I plan to build a unique all in one multivendor marketplace having a combination of physical, Digital and service products. Please what do you think?

[@funkymunky1776]

No non-sense bits of information with right dose of emphasis

[@denarkhan9714]

The faked the length of the talk to get "traction" on the video

[@Miaisabelle-yk6rd]

📌.Great video😊. I started watching your videos last year as a beginner before giving stock and crypto market a trial. I was able to make $17,300 in one month with a capital of $4,000 trading with an experience expert who guided me through out my trading.

[@adakkristinn]

yeah investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity but venturing into any legitimate Investment without a proper guidance of an expert can lead to a great loss too

[@CatherineMoriella]

I highly recommend Mr Chrissy Barymoer. He is my current trader and His strategies are working amazingly well

[@Karagoldberg7]

I knew someone would mention Chrissy Barymoer, he is perfect in helping beginners grow. I would not recommend anyone else.

[@LeeWalton6]

[@LeeWalton6]

Besides I and my brother have been trading with Chrissy Barymoer for over a year and I've made good profit of $86000 that's not much but l'm happy with the progress, I don't have to look for jobs anymore
