Automated Industry Leading Job Board, Passive Income Streams, Huge Email List http://marketingrockstar.net

Click here to view this auction on Flippa.

MarketingRockstar.net is a leading job board for the event marketing industry. As a well established site with multiple passive income streams and a huge customer database, revenues at the current level are guaranteed.

This is an exciting niche market filled with hip creative companies and eager young staff. Job seekers in this market are particularly abundant and respond to jobs in high volumes. As a premier site for the industry, we are one of few alternatives for employers to post their jobs and receive quality candidates. We have worked hard to build a sterling reputation, and I receive calls and emails regularly that reinforce the quality of service and value we provide.

The value of MarketingRockstar.net can be measured in more than one way. This site produces a steady (and growing) revenue stream from posting subscriptions and advertising. We have an email database of over 12,000 active subscribers. Google has indexed over 18,000 pages of our site. We have a strong social media presence which includes an automatically updated Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn page. All total, we have over 6000+ social media fans/followers. Included in our social media assets are 50 Facebook pages, one for each state. All jobs posted to the board are automatically delivered to the appropriate page.

Our Reputation/Feedback: (Verify on Linkedin: Ryan Goodin | LinkedIn)

“Ryan has developed one of the best Model Talent-Event Staff websites available. MarketingRockStar is indeed a Rock Star of job sites and one of the 1st I go to when posting events needing attractive, skilled and professional personnel for any national region. I can also access his extensive national talent database which I can count on to have current up to date photos and resumes. Ryan's site and concepts are up to the minute, easy access, simple and quick to implement, as well as popular and visible to the talent market I need to reach. Ryan will also touch base personally when he sees a job post I have and make helpful suggestions! Who does that?! I can highly recommend MarketingRockStar.Net to other staffing agencies, promo co's and the countries best model talent!” July 23, 2010

Maintenance

I spend no more than 30 minutes on the site per week. Activities include:
  • Assisting with profile picture uploads
  • Answering site functionality questions

Proprietary E-Book

In August, we released our first Ebook, Secrets to Event Staff Success: Secrets To Event Staff Success
All new employees are redirected to this page after signing up. Also, we are currently promoting this on the weekly email to all subscribers.

Currently the page is converting at about 2%, and I believe this will improve considerably with some tweaking

Job Posting Plans:

Employers have the choice of purchasing posting credits, or monthly subscriptions. The benefit to a subscription is the ability to post unlimited jobs in a given period of time, plus the ability to review a limited number of candidate profiles and contact them directly. The other benefit is having access to resumes - this allows employers to contact talent directly.

Current Job Post Rates:
  • 5 Posts - $1.25
  • 20 Posts - $5.00
  • 50 Posts - $12.50
  • 100 Posts - $25.00
  • 200 Posts - $50.00

Current Subscription Rates:
  • 3 Month Subscription w/ Resume Access - Post unlimited jobs for 3 months plus access to contact details for 50 candidates. Price: $7.50
  • 6 Month Subscription w/ Resume Access - Post unlimited jobs for 6 months plus access to contact details for 100 candidates. Price: $15.00
  • 12 Month Subscription w/ Resume Access - Post unlimited jobs for 12 months plus access to contact details for 200 candidates. Price: $30.00
  • 30-Day Unlimited Premium Posts & Resume Access - Unlimited premium posts for 30 days plus access to contact details for unlimited candidates. Price: $69.00

Premium Posting Plan:
  • The top level posting plan is valued at $69/month and allows employers to post unlimited jobs and contact unlimited candidates. The candidate database is of significant value to a number of employers because it is a supplemental database of talent across the US that they wouldn’t be able to find anywhere else.

Indirect Revenue:
