About Us

Hi, my name is Sheldon Nesdale.

I live in Tauranga, New Zealand.

While Google creates good lists, humans create great lists.  I have created LoveOneDaySales.co.nz to be the ONLY website you need to keep track of the explosive growth of the "Daily Deal" industry.

Q: "How did you get started with LoveOneDaySales.co.nz?"

In July 2009 I started a list of New Zealand "One Day Deal Websites" on my marketing blog because I noticed that a few copy cats were offering an alternative to 1-day.co.nz.

The list grew more and more popular to the point where I was getting over 1000 visits a day over Christmas 2009. I clearly saw an opportunity so I turned the blog article into this website LoveOneDaySales.co.nz. And web traffic continues to grow.

I have also launched:

• Australian version of the list: www.LoveOneDaySales.com.au
• American version: www.LoveOneDaySales.com
• and shortly a United Kingdom version: www.LoveOneDaySales.co.uk

Q: "Is this all you do? What's your day-job?"

What I do:

• LoveOneDaySales (takes up about 25% of my time)
• Small business marketing, advertising and sales in Tauranga, New Zealand
• I specialise in building websites that get results
• I'm skilled in search engine optimisation & Google Adwords
• I read A LOT of business books
• I'm in my final year of my part-time MBA from Waikato Uni
• I donate some of my time to some charities and small businesses that can't afford me
• And I like to create niche online businesses/websites like these examples:
  1. www.NZHotPools.co.nz. A comprehensive list of all of New Zealand's thermal hot pools (over 100 listed).
  2. www.ChickenCoops.co.nz. A list of chicken coop suppliers around New Zealand (yea, pretty left field!)
  3. www.Firstbyte.co.nz. Just selling websites using WordPress
  4. www.SearchEngineGuide.co.nz. Giving my SEO ebook away for free, offering Adwords to clients, and writing reports about what changes you need to make to improve the ranking of your website in Google.
  5. www.ChefKnives.co.nz. Just testing the market with this one, but eventually plan to actually sell chef knives via a drop-shipping arrangement with an NZ based supplier
