Conferencebadge.com(+Leanticket.com) started in January 2013, generates ~$36k / month and growing. Interesting to note we were reject after interviewing in SF for YC S2013. We are a team of four working on this. Mostly part time, customer support, fulfilment with partners.
The money from this enables us to focus most of our time on a newly not announced projet, which we plan to launch in spring 2015. We plan to apply to YC with this one and are confident it will be a good match. Big vision, big plans.
I personally also have an old flash game portal (jeuxgratuits.net) started 13 years ago still generating ~1.5k / month. All legacy traffic from Google and 10 years of web links. 0 maintenance time.
- MrBuddyCasino 12y agoLooks really nice. I'm suprised lanyrd.com and similar didn't get that idea. Charging per badge is a nice business model.
- plehoux 12y agoLanyrd.com is all about discoverability. Conferencebadge.com is more utility. Really different in my opinion. I think the success of the plateforme was in our ability to mitigate all the pain points of managing attendees badges, which is not a sexy business.
