4 tips for success for acquiring a business, and how and why to do it

To begin, I did watch the entire video and have some questions.
1) It sounded as if there will never be a way for agents to upload their own data. How will agents that want to participate be a part of AgentMatch if their MLS doesn’t supply a feed?
2) Some agents belong to multiple MLSs. If one MLS participates but another does not, not all of the agent’s transactions will be available. How will AgentMatch let consumers know all transactions may not be on an agent’s profile because of this?
3) Most if not all of the major players in ratings, both real estate and non-real estate sites such as Google Business, Zillow, Yelp, Trulia, Amazon and Yahoo allow consumer testimonials. Will AgentMatch allow them and if so, will it have a questionnaire that is real estate focused consumers can fill out?
4) Will consumers know if any transactions were for a relative of the agent or if the agent had a vested interest in the property? Some agents buy homes, list them themselves and flip them.
5) In the video, you said 80% of transactions allows for a good comparision. Will the consumer know only 80% of sold properties are included?
6) On a personal note, because AgentMatch is in testing in a limited market and many agents have questions because of a story you alluded to, do you believe the agents speaking out and asking questions are anti-consumer?
