5.0 Out of 5 stars On book very clear!For me one of the best books for you that need to create a marketplace.
But just not limit yourself for this book. I recommend to reapply together with Modern Monopolies, Lean Startup, and Testing Business Ideas and some focused on growth marketing.
This book is good to you open your mind for every aspect for the marketplace. Marketplace is not just an site, it needs to bring value for various sides.
Buy it!

5.0 Out of 5 stars Feijoada and capirinhaA week after the first review, I was surprised by incredible business intermediation opportunities.
……
At the end of the reading, I came to the conclusion that the marketplace model is already saturated. If it is saturated, it is punctured to enter, it is bad business to keep up. The trend is now offline.
