When companies go public, they are forced to prioitize profits over everything else. This breeds greed and exploitation that affect all corners of society.We believe that by remaining independent of profit seeking investors and Wall Street, we can become a correction agent that positively influences - mental health, politics, relationships, technology, education, and so much more
Through the power of social media and ecommerce, we have created mulitple, easy-to-access income streams available to even the most impoverished communities. Without Wall Street, we are free to use our profits to pay our users instead of hoarding them to increase an arbitrary stock price. Our goal is to provide the 4 billion people living off of $5 per day, up to $25 per day.
We have built a robust sharing platform that incentivizes our users to rent products from one another, rather than owning one of everything. Incentivized sustainability at this scale will significantly reduce pollution caused by mass manufacturing and mass transport.
We help in 3 ways:1.Guaranteed advertising- when a small business purchases advertising from us, we guarantee to provide 2x as much revenue as they spend2.Cheaper services - without Wall Street forcing us to prioritize quarter over quarter profits, we can provide services that are actually designed to help small business instead of exploit them, such as affordable delivery and e-commerce tools.3.New customers - Because our platform provides earnings to our users, our advertising becomes incredibly effective at generating new customers. The convenience of using the same platform to earn and spend provides the perfect audience for our small business partners to generate new customers.
We are over 20 years old and have gone through multiple phases. In the 2000s, we were known as SMS.ac. During this phase we created a mobile billing network such that anyone in the world could use their phone to make payments - a prerequisite to our future ambitions.In the early 2010s, we transitioned to our FanBox phase, where we began developing our social networkIn 2015, we launched Empowr and attracted 800,000 users from all over the world. This was an alpha test of the social network and a testing ground for dozens of concepts and new technologies. After 5 years of innovation, we shut down Empowr to focus on our go-to-market strategy, which brought us into the Movement era. Fast forward 4 years and we are now ready to take our platform to the world.
