Two-sided marketplaces are becoming increasingly popular in the e-commerce startup world. eBay and Etsy are some of the most obvious examples of two-sided marketplaces, but now we are seeing a lot of niche and esoteric marketplaces as well all over the world.

So what does it take to be successful in this kind of business?

This Udemy course gives you a real-world example of a successful two-sided marketplace, as well as a step-by-step breakdown on how it was built.

You will be able to see that all the 1Mby1M methodology building blocks fundamentals were applied and that’s an important point to remember.

You can, for instance, bootstrap a two-sided marketplace as a solo entrepreneur, with a paycheck, then raise money (or not). You can build a Unicorn (or not).

Though we love bootstrapping, we never rule out funding.
