Differentiation & innovation points
Objectives Plantobuy.com is a social commerce service and more; much more.
(a) The ASK.YOUR.NETWORKTM concept A powerful social utility enabling consumers to gather opinions, comments & ideas from people they know and trust. With a click of a button, a user can ask (a) Facebook users (b) Selected Facebook friends (c) Twitter followers (d) specific friends via e-mail or any combination of the above. The process is easy and fun, resulting in easy-to-read purchasing hints, statistics, recommendations & trends.
(b) Personalized OFFERS In absolute contrast with the *deal* range of services, plantobuy.com does not reproduce junk offers. We believe in personalization and intelligent content delivery. Plantobuy.com enables highly targeted/ personalized offers on exactly what you need, when you need it and with full anonymity. Our users will be able to select the offers they find interesting and unveil personal data only to the retailers they select.
(c) WIDE RANGE of products/ services Plantobuy.com enables registration and administration of virtually any buying plan across a large number of heterogeneous categories (more than 200). In practice this means that consumers can do actual purchasing planning & budgeting for all personal, family and small business related expenses. Plantobuy.com also acts as a management tool for scheduling & administering spending.
(d) RICH, INTERACTIVE ADS Users get access to an ‘endless’ feed of rich video content, including ads, all highly-related with the actual/ selected plan. Plantobuy.com redefines the advertising model known so far: users are being served with highly-related ads, they can watch only those of interest, and they can submit feedback to the advertiser! Anonymously!

Expansion planning
Objectives We are in search of funding in order to execute our aggressive marketing plan, proceed with further product development, and quickly expand across Europe. More specifically, funding is required in order to: (a) Proceed with further PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Plantobuy already incorporates a range of innovation points regarding prices, social advice, ads and personalized offers but there are more to introduce: we do have a large queue of additional functions/ packages/ applications across a number of devices which will keep us way ahead of any competition. Parallel development is required and thus we seek funds for outstanding scientific/ engineering personnel.
(b) Expand across Europe, gradually become a GLOBAL SERVICE
We support this scenario by design – our IT architecture and expensive choices made, ensure we can easily scale to support exponential user-base growth. Scalable software and intelligent processes are already there – expansion is only a matter of hardware and human resources.
(c) Support MARKETING & ADVERTISEMENT PLANS Advertising in both online & traditional media is essential. Plantobuy.com targets an heterogeneous user-base which can be communicated more effectively using combination of media platforms.
