After my last post, I was curious as to whatever happened to Startonix so I did some searching on the internet. It appears that there were many problems, which I will not state on this blogg. However, the stock which was listed on NASDAQ at one time for $1.50 was around $0.0001 or something like that for the last quote which I could find. The company also filed for bankruptcy in January 2002 and there is little other news on the company after that time. Their corporate website is now parked at GoDaddy and may be up for grabs in October of this year. In any case, it was a failed venture which I foresaw back in 97 and I’m glad that I got out of it when I did.
This is another fine example of a failed business venture and am sure a lot of people lost a fair amount of money on it, whether it was the stockholders or the 1000’s of independent distributors.
My next post I’ll skip ahead a few years when I got into Ebay selling which although not very profitable, it did add to my growing education about what people want and how to market it.
I will also be adding some excellent new content very soon about the different pitfalls to avoid for newbies to online marketing.
