Re: Rumor Mill: Etsy in talks to be acquired by Martha Stewart
Martha and the sellers at Etsy would not be a good fit. The sellers are independent and proud.....Martha's a bloody control freak, and would wreak havoc, IMO.
I hope that Etsy does not sell to her. |

Quote:Martha and the sellers at Etsy would not be a good fit. Most of her employees hate her... [/quote] I've heard that also. Very difficult woman, from everything I've heard/read. I just did a search. Interesting article from January on Kalin. The author points out that Kalin has held VC's in disdain previously. Quite a change of heart. Also, Accel Ventures business is to invest in fledglling companies with the intent of selling said companies. |
