Strategic investor. The life of a startup in a new family. Start
<img src = "http://alexgriffin.ru/images/koolinar3000.jpg" alt = "koolinar.ru - delicious recipes from 70000 culinary specialists" / align = left> So - it is finished!
koolinar.ru has found its strategic investor. Although, to be honest, the investor found it himself :)
Somewhere in the spring of this year, we had a choice of several potential buyers:
three investors working in the hobby niche, Russian and foreign
two leading internet companies of Russia
several private investors
')
We were not actively searching, all investors were either familiar to us or came to us themselves.
From the choice of “much more money at once and confident, but the average future in a large list of investor projects” and “less money at once and risky, but very ambitious plans for the future” we chose the second.
Probably the most important impression - SLOWLY.
You cannot imagine how long any decisions are made. The number of approvals and edits. Refinements. What else can not imagine.
This could somehow be understood before the purchase. But nothing has changed since ...
If at first it is logical and understandable - to study the project / customer in more detail, to communicate with people ...
But the investor has a great young team. The guys, however, have become accustomed to such a life with a lot of papers. You look, and we will learn :)
Let's hope that this is the first lapping and then everything will be faster and more coherent. For now, buying a computer for a programmer (who already pays for money) two weeks is too much ...
Internet connection (with existing cabling) and its IT service - 4 (four !!!!) days.
Without disclosing specific details, I can say that the project’s investor is serious, development plans for the next two years are 12 times the amount of the sum paid for the purchase. The investor has his own legal content base in a niche hobby that will be integrated into the portal.
Now we have over 70 thousand culinary specialists and 29 thousand recipes from them.
A visitor to the site looks at 20 pages and spends an average of 12 minutes on it.
We have a lot of plans and we are looking for another programmer on Ruby on Rails (to an office in Moscow or remotely) - write to alex you know who snegmedia.ru
