EDDY FOR BUSINESS
The gift card you were never going to offer.
It runs on the Visa network. It sits in a marketplace where people are choosing gifts. And it costs you nothing to be there.
THE PROBLEM NOBODY TALKS ABOUT
You can’t be where it matters most
The rack at the grocery store — where most gift cards are actually bought — is closed to small local businesses. Instead, those slots belong to national chains. So the one go-to place for gift-givers, well, you can’t even be there.
Eddy is built to reach people who have never heard of you. And to put you where their gift-giving starts: on their phones! Where you can be searched for, or discovered, and then gifted, without the sender ever having walked through your door.
HOW A CUSTOMER ARRIVES
A new type of word-of-mouth
Someone picks your business for a person they care about.
They record a short video saying why.
Your own intro video plays right after theirs.
The gift money lands in the recipient’s phone, spendable only at your place.
Then they show up — already told by someone who they trust, that you’re worth the trip!
THE INVITE-ONLY ECONOMY
B2C evolves into B=C
Most small businesses need two things: more customers, and advertising they can believe in. Meanwhile, today’s consumers prefer independent businesses and dislike being interrupted by unwanted advertising.
We see a match-making opportunity. Not B2C advertising, but B=C, where businesses and consumers invite each other into a relationship that both sides actually want.
We call it the Invite-Only Economy: and it powers a new type of word-of-mouth advertising, upgraded for this century.
