Since I came to Inman News – one of my big goals was to hit the coveted “10,000 follower mark” on Twitter. As we came closer and closer, we thought it would be fun to have a contest. We decided that the Inman News 10,000th follower would win a free Connect SF ticket.
DRUM ROLL PLEASE…
So yesterday. We hit our goal and we are pleased to announce our 10,000th Twitter follower is: @Rofo_SF
These guys have a great company concept; and having a soft spot in my heart for companies that help small businesses, I was thrilled to be able to present Alan with his free ticket!
Rofo.com, which stands for “Right of First Offer”, is an office space search engine for small businesses and entrepreneurs. Rofo aggregates commercial real estate listings from top national brokerage firms to local building owners and everything in between. In addition to browsing available real estate listings, businesses can put Rofo to work by posting their specific real estate requirements and receive competitive proposals from local landlords and brokers.
Alan Bernier, CEO for Rofo.com says, “The idea for Rofo and our unique focus on smaller commercial space (less than 5,000 sqft) came from first hand experience as brokers. Entrepreneurs and smaller businesses who represent the majority of real estate transactions do not have the same access to resources and professionals as larger companies. The goal at Rofo is to empower smaller tenants in their search for space and create an environment where those looking for space are easily matched with those who have it. As a growing startup who has moved 3 times in 2 years we’re eating our own dog food. And we now have an even greater appreciation for the platform we’ve created.”
Congrats again @Rofo_SF!
