{Replica} When job exchanges want to silence a small competitor: Warning about too much success

That job boards are a hotly contested market in which a lot Money is earned, was me at the latest clear, since someone told me that some people there spend 400.000 euros a month on Google Adsense. However, it was not clear to me until now that some of these providers would even take unfair legal action if they threatened themselves feel.

A special job exchange, which arrived well

The story I found out via neunetz.de almost took off my shoes: in 2009, Leander Wattig had his Projects “I do something with books” started to network the book industry.

This soon included a small job exchange specializing in the book industry. The offer was free, Wattig didn't earn anything directly from it, he probably made it indirectly through the awareness benefits.

The offense: Too much success

The books on the subject (advertising)

A nice idea that was well received. Apparently too good for some, because as Leander Wattig wrote now, it was exactly this Success such a big thorn in some people Eyethat he was threatened with a warning.

“From the beginning there were isolated Peoplewho criticized me for offering such a platform for free. Why? Because I'm taking sales away from other players. "Why do you want to actively harm XY?" was asked [...] With a similar justification, I was warned for the first time by someone who seems to feel threatened as a competitor."

The warner-to-be can be happy: Wattig has taken the job exchange offline. Not because he legally fears the warning, that would be even nicer, but because he doesn't have any Lust has to deal with it.

Warning instead of innovation

Dear Jobbörsen-operator, how are you on it? Are your sales not so high? Maybe this is due to a business model? The crosspro research duration survey on the best job exchange has just shown that special providers and job search machines are in the forefront of user-friendliness.

Perhaps now, what I have already written here and here is true: that the model job market, at least the general, due to their limited functionality gradually survive? And maybe you have to resort to such means?

But to warn, instead of own, good ideas to develop, unfortunately, happens again and again and says a lot about the small-minded attitude of the warning person.
