AIRBNB for garages

2 pointsby yfaberalmost 12 years ago
People, i&#x27;ve decided to launch a platform to connect people listing and those who want to rent garages. Do you guys have any feedback to give me and maybe help me out?&lt;p&gt;thanks<p>www.pamg.co

This is something that probably does need to exist.<p>Suggestions:<p>* I have no idea how to see whether you have inventory in my city (I assume you have none). The classic call to action on the front page of sites like this is &quot;look up a location&quot;.<p>* You&#x27;re not doing a good job of selling to lessors, which, because you have no inventory, should probably be the lead on your site.<p>* You can sell to lessors with the same search box you&#x27;d offer to renters, and use it to turn your biggest weakness (no inventory) into an advantage (&quot;there&#x27;s no competition for you right now in Chicago, and 4984 people have used us to find a space in Chicago! Let&#x27;s get your garage listed!&quot;)<p>* &quot;CL&quot; is not some kind of universal shorthand for Craigslist.<p>* Don&#x27;t bury &quot;save 70% on parking costs&quot; in the middle of a paragraph 3 clicks into your site.<p>* Nobody cares about &quot;multi-platform&quot;. Do you see words like that anywhere on the front page of Airbnb?<p>* Nobody wants garage analytics, so if you&#x27;re going to sell some kind of analytics-based value proposition, you need to lead with the benefit and probably bury the word &quot;analytics&quot;.<p>* The copy on this page seems a little bit in love with itself, for instance by talking up the importance of a desktop UI and a phone UI. Who cares? Be confident in what you&#x27;re trying to sell and the value you&#x27;re providing, and forget about all the technical detail. Nobody cares.<p>* Your &quot;About Us&quot; has nothing to do with parking. Fix.<p>Good luck!

pamg is not memorable. I think a more brandable domain name would help immensely.
