Client & Business challenge

Identifying the Review-Sales Paradox in Digital Marketplaces

The founder, based in Washington, had a successful history in the physical product business, generating millions in online sales. This experience extended to selling on marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, and Walmart, as well as understanding the nuances of other app promotions on Google Play and the App Store.

He identified a significant challenge faced by sellers on these platforms and app creators: the lack of sales or download history and the absence of reviews. This situation creates a catch-22 for many new entrants: sellers and app developers need sales or downloads to garner reviews, but they require reviews to boost sales or downloads. Resorting to expensive and potentially risky advertising or sponsored products isn't always a viable solution.

To address this dilemma, the founder envisioned a solution to forge a closer connection between shoppers/users and businesses, thereby transforming how people discover new products, brands, and apps. To enhance his initial product draft, he partnered with Linkup Studio, relying on our expertise as a full-stack partner to develop this digital solution.
