Podcast: How to build a multi-million dollar online business

- July 7, 2012 < 1 MIN READ

In this revealing interview, Danial Ahchow shares how he built an online marketplace that now hosts millions of visitors annually, and generates hundreds of millions of dollars of work requests each year.

Danial Ahchow founded Service Central in 2005 and has built it to become a leading online marketplace for finding all sorts of service providers.

In this Small Business Big Marketing podcast, Danial shares where the idea came from, how he managed to bring it to life after quitting his day job as an Industrial Relations lawyer and cleaning offices to pay the bills, some of the obstacles he encountered and mistakes he made along the way.

Plus he takes us behind the scenes of the Service Central marketing machine, where at one point his monthly marketing budget was $480,000 … and shares how he goes about communicating with two very distinct groups …. users and service providers.
