I may also be scraping the targeted user or targeted user boss' website. That's part of the conundrum.
- bengali3 11y agoIf you are potentially giving them free marketing and possibly driving them more/better sales then it shouldn't be an issue, right? If they think their sales will be cut because of your tool, they will raise flags. if they think its a great resource, they'll share it. trying to relate, but I worked with a transportation brokerage firm. Many fleet 'operators' did retail and wholesale sales (ie to brokers like my co & other fleet operators). It was an interesting dynamic, but most of the sales team was only worried about sales and quality. For the fleet operators, retail clients were more profitable, but wholesale made up the volume. One issue could be if you are showing a 'price estimate' where they would not like one shown, but ask your sources what their issues would be. Your user base is the asset and your ally, make sure they are comfortable with what they're getting in return.
