This amazes me.
I get most of my information about the hottest things happening in Los Angeles from Daily Candy. And, it does not cost me a dime! It's the smartest Internet business I have ever seen. I wrote to Daily Candy 2 years ago to see how much it would cost me to advertise Jonesie Cake on their newsletter. In their busiest month? 34,000$!!! It's amazing!
After buying the company in 2003 for what seemed at the time to be the enormous sum of $3 million, making founder Dany Levy a millionaire, Bob Pitman is now flipping for a $122 million profit. Not bad for a company that employs just 55 people and relies principally on the delivery method of email.
A simple idea, but the best part is they created a branding by hiring Sujean Rim too illustrate the emails.
