Its a word that kills but yet it worked out for 419 Radio. These guys must have a reason for that! If I am to start a new start-up, I will not even come close to using 419.

That cannot be a longterm strategy for any serious enterprise because who knows what will happen in a few months or years time? The customer's tastes change, they get older,... It is very possible that by some feat, the term '419' will shed its negative connotations, but why saddle your business with that term? No serious business/business person can create a business with the sole aim of attracting Nigerian consumers alone, in my opinion. But I could be wrong. I wish these people the best of luck and hope they turn this venture into a rousing success.
