Paper.Co offers tutoring services online, a concept that is not new, but the company has been successful in selling their products to school districts (B2B) instead of direct-to-consumer (B2C)-providing the advantage that parents don&#8217;t pay for tutoring, the school district does. The company has gone through several rounds of funding but it is still privately held, meaning that investors that get in &#8220;early&#8221; may be able to get big returns.
