Our goal is help owners to get as large a market reach as possible. With Contopi, owners can reach many more users than what they would be able to on their own and thereby they get a wider exposure. We have chosen not to charge the owners' customers (our users), but to charge our owners, since you as an owner gets great value by paying only a small amount and in turn, reach out to a much larger market.

We have created this service, because we have experienced how frustrating it can be to look for certain offshore containers and would have loved to have had a service like Contopi. There has been a significant cost in developing Contopi and by operating it, and we seek to cover these costs through subscription fees from owners.

- Contopi is an extra alternative on top of everything else that you are already doing. For example, you can use Contopi as a valve, where you rent out a part of your offshore container fleet at times when you have too many units on stock.
- You might as well get an income on renting units out instead of having them on stock and just taking up space.
- It is easy and takes very little time to use Contopi.

Ask yourself how long lead time you need for preparation for your projects. If it is i.e. 5 weeks, you can write that your offshore container is only available for rental for 5 weeks. In that way you will be sure to have the offshore container back in due time, by only targeting users who only need the offshore container for 5 weeks or less.

You could choose to put just a small part of your offshore containers up on Contopi and i.e. not include units that you feel will present themselves best on your own website. You could also upload all your containers on both your own website and on Contopi - it is entirely up to you what is the best mix. The important thing to remember is that Contopi is an extra channel to what you do today.
