Innovative classified ads app, currently only for iOS.

Large players as Craigslist and eBay have been dominating the classified ads market for decades and have shown little innovation during the last couple of years. New players are challenging those giants but we missed true innovation in the concept of the app. Next, their business model is weak. They have no model that is included in the core concept. As those apps are not really adding incredibly more value to me as a user nor are they creating the opportunities we seek as entrepreneurs, we decided to develop an app ourselves.

Pinsell was born (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pins...028474791?mt=8)

Main features:

• Find great products nearby your location
• Place a product for sale within 10 seconds using your iPhone
• Share your ads directly on your social media accounts to boost visibility and increase the speed of selling your products
• No company advertisements, only classified ads
• Chat real-time with each other and send pictures and movies
• See a seller’s / buyer’s profile to see who you’re dealing with
• Rate buyers and sellers
• Choose to “Buy now” using our Payment Service --> reliable payments that protects both buyer and seller. Including insured shipments. We use Mollie for this.

The app is built to make it as easy and safe as possible to sell and buy great products.
The business model lies in our Payment Service provider. For using the Payment Service we charge both sellers 10% and buyers € 0,99. As they both benefit from the service.

The app was launched in 2016. It got traction early on and was downloaded +- 1.500 times already without any promotion. Users started uploading products quickly. This is because of App-Store-Optimization. However, there was no focus in our company to promote Pinsell.
The app is currently active in the Netherlands but it can be easily expanded to other countries and operating systems.

We are a software development company that lack the focus and resources to scale the app. It doesn’t fit our competences / not our cup of tea.
After a couple of months of discussion, our management has decided to sell the mobile app at a discounted price to a competent buyer that has a better fit with the app then we do.
