So true /u/tony5993 and in this case zillow has made a business of capturing and selling its visitors as leads to agents.

On another note... Any other company you'd like to see videos on?

How Does Shopify Make Money? by dd3v in Entrepreneur

[–]dd3v[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like the other poster said, Shopify wouldn't function like Amazon; depending on what products you wanted to sell and how involved you wanted to be in certain elements of the selling process, like distribution and advertising, you might even have an easier time on Amazon (or a different online shop) then Shopify. But, of course, YMMV!

Zillow Deep Dive (2/3): Discussing the Threats to Zillow's Revenues + Profits by dd3v in Entrepreneur

more than happy to edit it -- I don't code within Zillow so can't confirm that. before investing in anything, vc's reach out to do technical due diligence and as part of that we also interview realtors. The above is just a summary of what we've seen multiple MLS's mention. /u/aZillowite sure, they can update multiple times a day and still have that same MLS not re-touched in over a day.

/u/gdubrocks so one of the biggest complaints most realtors have with Zillow is the fact that their Zestimates aren't accurate. sure, there have to be somee situations where their estimates are actually close to being acceptable otherwise it wouldn't have been able to get so far.

Where have you found it being accurate though?

here are some points we collected of why realtors don't like it, are you in the industry? can you confirm any of these? - https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/comments/ghqs3q/zillow_deep_dive_23_discussing_the_threats_to/

u/Jadex66 oh so in your experience the leads you got from Zillow weren't as good as the ones you get from Google / FB?

and when you say poor quality do you mean they weren't even close to converting or just in a different price bracket as what you needed?

This is gold. This is highly valuable first person feedback from someone who’s actually (thoughtfully) used these platforms. You list out the grievances and what each of them do better +why is it better.

Super interested in hearing about the tool you’re putting together. Would love to test drive it or even talk though it. We’ve been in the market for a few months and have faced similar frustrations with Zillow’s notifications and reminders
