Simon Baker, former CEO of the REA Group, and longtime investor and consultant to the industry offers expert advice for companies to grow their marketplaces in these uncertain times in the first 90-minute session of the PPW Interactive Webinar Series.

The Coronavirus (CoVid-19) is playing havoc with confidence in international markets and, in turn, providing portals and online marketplaces with serious challenges for growth in short to medium term. What is critical for all management is to remain calm, think through the issues carefully and have a clear plan on how to address these challenges. 

Simon Baker will be offering advice and sharing his experiences from across a storied 20-year career in the industry as the former CEO of the REA Group, the former Chairman of the Mitula Group and the iProperty Group, a serial investor in numerous portals and marketplaces, and a respected consultant to the industry.

The first 90-minute webinar is titled: Building Your Marketplace in Challenging Times

Subjects to be covered include:

  • Likely impact of a prolonged downturn on marketplaces

  • Opportunities created by the downturn

  • How marketplaces can modify sales and marketing

  • What marketplaces should do over the coming months

  • Capital raising

  • Cost containment approaches

This will be an interactive webinar with audience participation. Bring your issues and challenges.
