Leeds-based sports betting company Bets of Mates co-owner David McGurk posted 22 percent of the company on crowdcube.com in an attempt to generate GBP 200,000.
McGurk, a retired pro footballer from York City, is putting his focus on further development of the BetsofMates concept in terms of app development, website modifications and marketing.
According to McGurk, in the 18 months since its launch BetsofMates has accumulated 1,110 users and has accepted GBP 70,000 in wagers. “We have achieved this through hard work, but we all have full-time jobs and sometimes we have not always had the time to work on the site as much as we would like. Now I am moving into part-time football I will have the time to focus my efforts towards the business. We feel ready to go the next level now."
