👋🏼 Elpha community! I'm back again :).

Looking for a technical cofounder in the talent marketplace. A generalist product engineer with some backgorund in ML would be ideal. I've had some contracts in place with some companies and am looking to build out the MVP.

If interested, please reach me at [email protected]

Cheers!

Hello Priscapan,To build a marketplace, you don't need a technical profile, especially for the MVP. There are several toolsHello Priscapan,You don't need a technical profile to build a marketplaceTo build a marketplace, you don't need a technical profile, especially for the MVP. There are several tools available on the market (Arcadier, Sharetribe, Kreezalid, etc) ready for this.The second layer I imagine, would be automation. Be here again, it is nothing technical; there are several tools on the market for this (Zapier, Make, etc). It is just a matter of connecting everything. You can hire a freelance or contractor to do this. I can work with you on the "technical" side I you want.It is more important to hire a growth manager; it is the key of marketplace. Marketplaces can have impact only after a number of stakeholders on both sides of the system. (I wanted to launch a marketplace before covid and studied the subject).Have fun 🤩

Hey @eblancardi, thanks for the tip! Can you speak more on the growth manager piece?

The issue of launching a marketplace is to get enough customers on both sides of the marketplace.If one side is weaker than the other one, it will not attract the other side and the marketplace won't grow.This is why, growth management is vital: to ensure numerous customers are onboarded on both sides.
