By Interviewer at 09/24/07 16:40

Name of your website?

BidPie

Your name?

Jim McCoy

Your Location (city, etc)

Reed City

Please give us a short summary of your website?

This site is to assist both caterers and people in need of catering. For those looking for the best price on catering, we charge nothing to list your event. Those looking for events to bid on, we charge a small fee per month.

What inspired you to launch your own website?

After talking to some caterers I learned that this is a very large market and only has room to grow. Do you think people are going to stop eating?

When did you launch your first website, and what was it?

MyFox.com in 2000

How did you decide on a name for your website?

About 2 hours with 4 people storming up ideas

What makes it different from other, similar offerings?

Price

What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)

That is a very hard decision, we are split whether to sell or keep it. If you want to buy it make an offer though. Money talks.

How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?

It hasn't caught up yet...

If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?

AJAX

If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?

Yes

What unexpected costs and headaches have you had to deal with?

Not yet

What has been your biggest challenge?

Image manipulation

What method has been most successful for promoting your website?

Word of mouth

How has running your website differed from your expectations?

It hasn't

How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?

Its been up for about 2 weeks, I will keep it about 6 months or so if it doesn't move at all.

Do you think you are getting your piece of the pie.

Yes hopefully I will...

What is your website address?
