Estimated Sale Numbers?

[Sadik B]

I was reading a post by Brian Cummiskey of VBSeo here. Interestingly he talks about what kind of business XF can generate and if it would make business sense for Crawlability to consider a XF seo solution.

Anyways, so reading his post got me thinking, what do you think the first day sale estimates of XF will be. ? 2000 licenses? 3000?

 

[D.O.A.]

over 9000

For gawd's sake Doc, I had to think about that one ... must ... lie ... down.

Me sorry.

over 9000

Ahh! Cyberman!

Mr.President says.. 478. Period. And K&M should not come checking this thread again and again and start dreaming . Get back to your work boys, it will hit 1000s very soon, if not, i will sanction extra funds for your company.

I reckon they'll sell roughly 1 license less than if they sold another license.... I swear that sounded good in my head.

Great minds think alike?

I very nearly posted that yesterday...

Why not make an official contest out of this? K&M keep the count in the beta period and whoever was closest get a free license.

Ashley has already stated that license numbers will be for internal consumption only.

I understand that, just thought there could be a one time exception for a few weeks or so

What about this one;

They'll sell 1 license more than would they'd sell if they sold 1 license less.

 

[Paul B]

That too

I couldn't decide which way to go so just gave up in the end...

 

[Lycaon]

Yeah I was deliberating on which one last night, was going to give up but then decided on the 1 license less option.

What's the point in guessing something that you won't ever know the aswer to?

There will be a licensed members group, yes.

Point = Number of licensed members *(random variable)

I must admit im not really up on the rules, but wont they have to publish some form of accounts as a public limited company ?

How many is anyones guess, but I would imagine they would be very well pleased if it reached 1000 initially (the vast majority from members here). The problem they will then have is that after the "sale" it will plunge for a while, they will need to attract people who currently know nothng about it at all.

They're private, not public, hence LTD not PLC. They are limited by shares (of the liability).

Ah, ok - so does that exempt them from having to publish any accounts ?

Yep, though they do have to report some financial data, though it's not that detailed.
