About Us
Welcome to Ztail, the first interactive pricing guide that answers the question of "What’s It Worth?" and the best place for buying or selling anything under the sun.
Ztail was founded in 2005 by Silicon Valley veterans Bill Hudak, Dave Keefer and Jordan Kobert. Bill, Dave, Jordan and the entire Ztail team have worked hard to make Ztail the only place you can go to find the Worth of anything.
Along the way, we’ve revolutionized selling with our Pushbutton Publishing. We’ve recently been awarded Grand Prize in the 2008 eBay Developers Widget Contest. Now we’re geared up and ready to help you answer the question of "What’s it Worth?"
Bill Hudak, Co Founder
Bill Hudak has more than 10 years of extensive internet marketing, product development and search engine experience, working for leading companies such as Google, Efficient Frontier, Shopping.com (formerly Epinions) and Women.com. An internet veteran, Bill advises several of the Valley’s top businesses on revenue optimization and advertising strategies.
When Bill isn’t finding out what his stuff is worth, he spends his time walking his dog Keegan; skiing, running or cycling with his girlfriend and playing golf poorly.
Dave Keefer, Co Founder
Dave Keefer has more than 15 years experience in Silicon Valley developing products and infrastructure for companies such as Symantec, Netscape, Epinions, Shopping.com, and Silver Spring Networks. Dave has managed complex projects and led the development of Ztail from the ground up.
When he’s not busy with Ztail, Dave can be found bicycling through the Palo Alto hills with his wife, enjoying time at home with their two sons and watching "L O S T".
Jordan Kobert, Co Founder
Jordan has extensive experience creating and managing high-growth businesses. Prior to Ztail, Jordan ran business development and advertising at Homegain.com. Before Homegain, Jordan worked as a strategy and operations consultant to the largest metropolitan newspapers, including The Chicago Tribune, The LA Times and The Washington Post. Jordan earned his MBA from the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan.
When not "Worthing" things on Ztail, Jordan spends his time racing bikes (both on and off road), and skiing.
Ramesh Sen, Engineer Extraordinaire
Ramesh (aka "meeze") joined Ztail in 2006 and brings with him over 10 years experience developing applications for companies like Yahoo! and Efficient Frontier. Meeze wrote his first professional application for IBM when he was 16 years old !
When not looking at the Worth of his favorite iPods, laptops and guitars, Ramesh tries to ski as much as possible.
