What started out as a fun idea to help a few of his friends turned into a million dollar business for Scott Keyes. Scott would always here his friends complaining about how expensive flying was, and he decided that he wanted to help. He would search the web for the cheapest flights, and then email them to his friends. This was very popular among his friends and Scott realized that he could turn this into a business. Out of this popped Scott’s Cheap Flights. Scott’s Cheap Flights is a website that you can sign up for alerts for cheap flights. You can also sign up for a premium membership, which requires you to pay, but the users get even faster alerts. This system is what drives profits for Scott’s business. Scott shows traits of a true entrepreneur by taking a simple idea to help out his friends and turning it into a very successful business.
affordable travel is such an up-and-coming field: there’s a huge demand for it and a lot of room in the market. but, at the same time, there are also a lot of businesses competing for the market. what makes Scott’s Cheap Flights different?
I actually have a friend that does this with video games. It’s funny because you think that other people would be able to find the deals, but for some reason he is just amazing at it. Maybe he should be running a business!
