At a glance
What we already have
A complete platform for the online used-car market, built and tested over about two years. It includes structured inventory, tools for sellers, analytics and AI-assisted features. The hardest technical work is done. What we need now is liquidity and a strong market presence.
What this proposal offers
The offer is straightforward: 50% ownership in AutoPark in return for €30,000, paid in three €10,000 instalments, each tied to clear objectives. GSS will continue to manage software development and technical operations. Favorit Auto will lead marketing, seller recruitment and field activity. Every detail can be discussed and adjusted during the talks, together with counsel.
The figures below are planning estimates for discussion. Economic details will be set in the final agreements.
What GSS brings
We have invested about two years of focused work to build and simplify the whole system: the website, the API, the mobile apps and the infrastructure. Our internal view of that investment is above €100,000. GSS will continue to cover all technical costs: servers, security, updates and ongoing product development. The €30,000 is there to accelerate commercial growth, not to reimburse past development spend.
Division of responsibilities
GSS (gss.al)
Technology and platform operations
- Product development, updates and quality
- Servers, database, storage and CDN
- Integrations with third-party services (including AI)
- Security, compliance and incident management
GSS also provides
- Card payments automation: Visa and Mastercard through Stripe or through local payment APIs, depending on technical fit, cost and regulatory compliance.
- Marketing automation, integrations and campaign optimisation: integrations with marketing channels (for example pixels, transactional email, CRM), automation and measurement to improve campaign performance.
Favorit Auto
Marketing and market growth
- Advertising campaigns and marketing budget
- Seller recruitment, field visits and partnerships
- Branding, public relations and events
- Budget management for promotional activity
Example: about €8,000 per month and who funds what
Balanced split: about €4,000 per side according to roles.
Ownership structure
After the full €30,000 is paid and agreements are signed, ownership will be 50% GSS and 50% Favorit Auto. Exact details (vesting, ESOP, etc.) will be set by counsel.
€30,000 in three instalments
First instalment
€10,000 upfront payment
Paid after the agreements are signed. Used for marketing preparation and legal formalisation.
Second instalment
€10,000 when the platform is live
Paid when AutoPark is open and usable for sellers and buyers (a working product for users, not a stock-market “going public” event). Exact wording in the contract.
Third instalment
€10,000 when we reach 100 active paying sellers
Paid when the platform has one hundred sellers on active paid subscriptions.
How we earn revenue
Revenue is expected from three main sources: monthly seller subscriptions, in-platform ads and boosts, and premium AI-assisted services. The charted example assumes about €50 per month per subscription on average.
Subscription revenue
€50 × number of sellers
Revenue mix (example)
About 100 to 120 sellers → roughly €8,000 per month
| Source | How | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Subscriptions | Showroom / Dealer / Group packages | Fixed monthly billing in ALL. |
| Ads and boosts | Spotlight, bump, premium packs | Credits for better placement. |
| AI services | Auto descriptions, price hints, photo help | Lower cost thanks to efficient model choices. |
Spend and growth
Monthly spend may reach about €8,000 once the model is steady. About half goes to technical development (covered by GSS), about half to marketing (mainly by Favorit Auto).
Phase 1-2
0 to 100 sellers: keep spend low and test seller activation.
Phase 3
100 to 150 sellers: revenue approaches the spend level.
Phase 4-5
Above 150 sellers: growth and reinvestment of profit.
Growth objectives
Balance point
~€8,000
per month with about 100 to 120 active sellers.
300 sellers
€22-24,000
per month, net profit after expenses.
600 sellers
€40-45,000
per month, upper potential in the Albanian market.
Timelines
- 4-9 months Reaching the balance point, depending on recruitment pace.
- 9-14 months Investment payback in the base scenario.
- 12-18 months Sustainable profitability if the market responds well.
Main risks
- Seller recruitment is the biggest challenge, because many deals still happen by phone or in the field.
- Early liquidity: how quickly enough active buyers appear.
- The real count of professional sellers is lower than broad official headline numbers.
Next steps
- Sign the NDA and get access to the data room (demo, architecture, statistics).
- Draft the main terms: 50% ownership, payments, division of roles and decision rights.
- Legal structuring of the company and transfer of intellectual property.
