Markus Frind and Plenty of Fish - A Case Study in Effective Sales and Marketing Strategy
A couple weeks ago, I read one of the most compelling articles on a growing business that I have read in years. In his article entitled, "And the Money Comes Rolling In", Inc. Magazine writer Max Chafkin talks about Markus Frind's strategies for growing his personal dating website, Plenty Of Fish. Frind's idea was to build a basic user-content-driven website and pay for it with ads. He started from scratch and built out a minimalist site by anyone's standards (look at it now and there still isn't anything too impressive - distorted personal pictures and a heart favicon). But the idea resonated with thousands of people who were paying for a dating service and looking for a free alternative. He is now clearing $5 million a year after taxes. He has a handful of staff members and a nice, but mostly unfurnished, office in Vancouver.

So with the very kind permission of the wonderful MacUser (leading Mac Magazine), it’s equally wonderful editor, Karen Harvey and the no less wonderful writer himself Stuart Price, we are including here the very same article.

HOW IMPORTANT IS IT FOR ENTREPRENEURS TO WRITE WELL?
Alas, it’s not as necessary as it once was for an entrepreneur to be a good writer.
