Interview w/ a Network owner who sold to Verticalscope & Internet Brands

[Brandon Sheley]

Everyone seemed to enjoy our last interview that we shared here, I think you guys will like this one as well.
It's from a forum network owner that has sold to Virticalscope and Internet Brands in the past.

It's rather long though, might take a look in sections..lol

A lot of good insights in there!

Execellent interview!

I can also vouch for VS - their people are nice, I met one of the executives at ForumCon 2012.

Thanks for sharing Brandon.

It's great to get some perspective from those that have had those experiences.

I recently had some inquiries on selling WaltDisneyBoards.com and have been entertaining some. We'll see if I sell my first ever forum that I started back in 2007

 

[Shelley]

Excellent interview. Thanks for sharing brandon.

 

[Brandon Sheley]

Thanks everyone,

I'm told there are some typo's, so I'll try to get those fixed asap.
I pretty much just put the interview up last night right before bed, so I didn't proof the answers before posting.

Glad everyone has enjoyed it.

Someone made a killing selling traffic to IB. Although, I bet IB makes enough in ad revenue to easily make it back.

Vbulletin.org is like a spawning pool of scammers. Even the best developer I have ever worked with went awol after being paid.

Pretty strong statement.

I've known Rick for awhile. Good guy in the forum business.

Thanks everyone, I'm glad some of you have enjoyed it.
It's going to be tough to follow up this one and the one from Joe Ward, but we're going to try..lol
