GoDaddy Inc.

GDDY position long Yen Liow, Aravt Global

Thesis

GoDaddy has a strong customer care team that acts as a profit center and is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing need for businesses to establish an online presence. With only 18.5 million customers out of an estimated 500 million independent SMBs globally, there is significant room for growth.

Did it work?

inconclusive confidence: low

The pitch is a long-term growth thesis based on GoDaddy's large TAM (18.5M customers vs. ~500M global SMBs) and its customer care as a profit center, but no price performance or time elapsed is provided. There is no evidence available on whether GoDaddy materially grew its customer base or monetized this opportunity since the pitch. Without price data or confirmation of the thesis's key dynamics, the outcome cannot be judged.
