How a buyer-first ticket marketplace startup quickly secured $1.1M in funding with Bubble.io.
As a first-time entrepreneur still in college, TicketRev's founder didn’t have a ton of upfront capital to hire a traditional development team or technical co-founder to launch his idea. He needed a faster, cheaper alternative to build his marketplace idea. Enter No-Code & Bubble.
Airdev proceeded to create a detailed scoping document of the project, which included product specifications, wireframes, and a quote. Within a few weeks, Airdev’s designers and developers started building. The work included two phases: (1) the initial build where Airdev’s team developed and internally tested all features of the marketplace, and (2) the review period where TicketRev inspected every product aspect, making sure everything was built according to the confirmed scope.
The results?
A fully functional platform completed in just 2 months, allowing for fast product-market testing, iterations, customer acquisition and revenue generation.
$1.1M in pre-seed funding from 500 Startups, Soma Capital, Groove Capital, Techstars, the Minnesota Twins, and various angel investors.
The hiring of new team members to continue growing the business.
