Overview

Joinem operates a social commerce platform built around its WePower group-buying proposition, which guarantees up to 25% off the lowest online prices when target numbers of shoppers join a Buy. The company scans mega-retailers such as Amazon, Walmart.com, Target.com and BestBuy.com to identify the lowest online price in real time and deliver savings below that price. Joinem uses proprietary smart data to find like-minded shoppers, offers personalized social profiles and referral URLs, and rewards referrals with $5 in Joinem Bucks. The business launched its public site concurrent with a $5 million investment funding announcement and completed a closed beta in November 2014 that produced strong engagement metrics. Pre-launch research projects an initial user base of 30–50 million, and beta results included metrics such as 66% saying they would open an account and 78% saying they would participate in a group Buy. The company is led by Executive Chairman Rick Braddock and CEO and co-founder Darren Waxman and highlights an addressable market of two billion social network users with projected market potential up to $58 billion.
