My idea is..• Yes, I have this idea for a long time.• A online shopping/entertainment website• Aims at bring people out of home to enjoy their

local activities in a big-saving way.• It’s a win-win-win model.• It encourages consuming in local, reducing the

carbon emission by eliminating unnecessary goods shipped.

• It entertains consumers by offering the fun products/services instruction.

I’m not the first one• There are couple entrepreneurs having make it work, and so well. See how they

combine those ideas into a single platform – GROUPON.COM

You may hear about 百萬團購網 ( 地圖日記 )

AfterGORUPON.COM

• Through groupon.com is famous in North America, there are #2 and #3 namedsocialBuy.com and SocialShopper.com

• For me, it’s even more attractive, because it actually aims at leveraging the power of social media.

How “SocialBuy” works• Pay attention on the key words “local activities”, “the deal is activated

while the deal is good”, and its “methodology for merchants”.

I LOVE IT VERY MUCH becasuse:

• Group shopping x social media power

= organically growing sales.

Group shopping x social media power= organically growing sales.

• A very simple formula.• Group shopping brings products providers

(hotels, restaurants, movie theatres, concerts etc..) a great volume of consumers.

• A great volume of consumers is borough by the great deal, spread out by Social media power.

• It’s a win-win-win for website owner (you), local shopper owners (restaurant, hotel, massage shop etc..), and consumers.

It’s not just group buying• I love this model cuz it

brings people out of computers, encourages people going out, not just buying things at home.

• We are selling services, promoting local services.

• We encourage people trying something new, in a big-saving price.

• For example, you want playing paintball with friends, you want to try sky diving, bungee jumping… Trying Laser Tag game

It’s resistant to CHEAP goods importing from developing countries• 掏寶網來了 , 可以直接

用支付寶買到超便宜的東西 , 那些只賣東西的網站便宜得過別人嗎 ?

Key expertise to make it successful?

• Appealing product/service introduction - no bullshit things, just cut to the point.

• AWESOME deals – something you wont find in any other online shopping mall.

• Exceeding-customers’-expectation experience – customers feel being pampered while shopping with us

• Friendly user interface / technology

I also need following expertise to make the business sustainable (1)• Nice financial structure – I don’t have finance

resource now, so I would rather start it by applying LEAN STARTUP.– For the time being, I realize how important the “whom you are working with”. I would

like to invite people who are passionate about entrepreneurship and willing to committee themselves giving 1 year to this project. And the return will be the shares of this company once it’s incorporated. Therefore, I will need someone who understand how to structure shares for a startup. It will reward people who contribute themselves in this first year.

– It will get involved incorporating companies across different regions, including Korea, Japan, China, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

• Frankly speaking, I need Corporate Finance guys or Accountants.

Potential customers’ profile

• Asian immigrants in North America– They have different food or service preference from

natives.– Differentiation strategy: there are WalMart and

SUPERSTORE, but there is still room for T&T and H-Mart

– They have different social media platform preference. While the most Chinese use renren.com and happymate.com, instead of facebook, and the most Koreans active on Cyworld.

– They love group buying.

Potential customers’ profile

• Can be tailored upon segmentations, because the “Private deal” function, which only allows people who are invited to join.– VIP strategy.– Penetrated a particular segmentation, for

example, Bimmer lovers.– Will try to paten “Private Deal” function.

Expansion plan (2)

• Major cities in Asia region– China (Beijing, …)– Japan (Tokyo, …)– Korea (Soul, …)– Singapore (..– Taiwan (Taipei, …)– Thailand (Bangkok, ..)

Expansion plan (1)

• Major cities in Canada, – Considering the core team’s geographic

advantage, the priority would be from west to east coast : Vancouver -> Toronto -> Calgary

• Major cities in U.S– Seattle -> New York

I also need following expertise to make the business sustainable (2)• Lawyers - I need law consultancy resource to

structure customers/vendors engaged plan or policy.– Dealing with online commerce regulations.– Making this business fully compliant with

regulations in different regions.
