Develop or sell?

jacal1 · 26-06-2007, 12:18:02 AM

I have itix.co.uk which I think is a nice developable name (buying tickets online). However, at this point I'm in too many places at once and was curious whether this one is worth selling instead?

Very nice, yanks use tix a lot as abbreviation, not sure it works in uk though.

Low �xxx to reseller, not sure on end user.

Thanks Lee. I figured it was not quite as good there - drops from 5 million to 82K when searched in UK only in google.

'tix' is a popular abbreviation used in the travel industry, here in the UK. Perhaps you should look at this channel.

I could see it being developed offering some sort of service to travel agents/Tour Operators or something.

All tickets etc sold through travel agents and tour operators are paid through what is known as a BSP report (Billing and Settlement Plan). This is operated by IATA (International Air Transport Association). It is a complete reporting system and means that a payment is made to one body as opposed to 100's of airlines each month.

Check out the page here: http://www.iata.org/ps/financial_services/bsp

iTix.co.uk could be a great name for them to develop a site for agents and operators to check their monthly reports online. Not sure if they already do this but with a bit of research I am sure you could find out.

Hope this helps.

Just checked the IATA site and they already offer a product to check reports and issue ADM's/ACM's online through BSPlink

So theres the product, just badly branded

iTIX.co.uk is far better!
