"Our customers are making the social shopping experience happen," said Dan DeVries, President of MassGenie. "Our Power Deals are short-term, volume-based offers where buyers can leverage their social media presence to crowdsource demand. It is exciting to see the continued acceleration in growth that we have been experiencing. Our 2,576% year-to-date growth was a significant increase from our same quarter year-over-year growth of 2000% in Q4 2018."
"We're excited about our upcoming community," added DeVries. "We're different from many platforms, because we're not just a deal site. We cater to our customers by engaging with them in the social world, and with these communities we'll be able to converse and engage all on one platform! Buyers can share makeup tutorials, comment on their favorite fashion trends, find amazing home decor ideas, and shop and share with their friends, all in one place! We will put the 'unity' in community and we're excited about getting everyone involved in the conversation!"
MassGenie has recently opened up their Series A round which is expected to close in Q2 2019.
