CROWD SHOPPING & CROWD SELLING

What is MassGenie?

9

• BUYER VALUE – Only marketplace where the buyer can initiate a

deal. On MassGenie, buyers can initiate a deal via a Power Deal and

crowdsource their demand by using their own social media, while

earning points on the marketplace.

• SELLER VALUE - Sellers are allowed to market to their own

customers and even non-customers. The MassGenie seller portal is

easy to use and a seller can spend as little or as much money

advertising as they would like.

• CROWDSOURCING – The buyer can intelligently leverage the power

of crowdsourcing to Crowd Shop and raise their buying power with

the seller(s).

• GAMIFICATION MARKETPLACE – Multiple sellers can compete to

fulfill the volume of demand by lowering their price. The game

(Power Deal) is unpredictable. The selling prices can’t be predicted

from one game to the next, giving sellers and buyers the

opportunity to try to win again and again over time.

MassGenie is a unique, online marketplace that gamifies both the BUYER & SELLER experience. MassGenie is both Crowd Shopping and Crowd Selling.

It is the only marketplace where both the BUYER & SELLER can initiate a deal!
