| CoolBeez | We make word-of-mouth recommendations work for online shops, bringing them new revenues and clients. Why CoolBeez works for online shops? We all recommend things we bought online to friends all the time. Think about books, cool gadgets, stuff for kids. But in most cases there is no clear way for the shop that sold it to you to benefit. Becausethose recommendations are usually for the product. Not for the product AND the store. So chances are, the person receiving the recommendation buys the product from another online store! CoolBeez is designed to help the original store get that sale. What CoolBeez Does CoolBeez makes winning new customers and generating more sales via recommendations and referrals easier and faster than ever. Simply and quickly connect your store with CoolBeez, and your customers will receive emails with links leading to your store. So every time they recommend a product they bought from you to a friend, that friend just clicks the link and goes straight to that product in your store where they can buy it. No more losing sales to other stores. | $172K | Angel | Apr 01, 2019 |  |
