What keeps me from doing this without Orbik?
Like most things in tech, this is a convenience tool. By using Orbik, you don't have to do the management of the reward flow. Most businesses provide some sort of in-store credit or provide discounts for the referrers. The idea with us is that paying out cash directly is much more attractive than in-store credit.
I definitely appreciate the feedback though. I suspect making the value proposition a bit clearer would be a good action item.
Any and all feedback welcome.
Not every maker has a large contact list. You can of course email people and ask them to advertise your product. But by asking them to become advertisers on Orbik, they also get money rewards and can also advertise multiple products.
After throwing dollars out the window with Facebook advertising, I feel this exactly what I'm looking for.
Niche products that are very useful for a specific group of people are best advertised by word of mouth.
Please sign up as an advertiser! I have an undocumented "feature" that I added recently - writing it here for the first time: If a business signs up with the platform and came to us without a referral from an advertiser, the platform will pick a random advertiser withing 100KM and give that advertiser 50% of our profit for the first 2 months. Effectively, as an advertiser, you have a chance to make cash even if you do nothing except be on the platform.
Is this for legal/tax reasons? Too much paperwork? I can totally understand, I'm just curious of the limitations.
I do intend on bringing up more business entities in other countries but I am limited on my resources available to expand at this time.
What country are you in?
Thanks for the great feedback - keep it coming!
But I’ve been using Wise (former TransferWise) to receive ACH payments and payouts from Stripe in an US based bank account. So it should be possible to have any business/advertisers from any country as long as they provide an US/Canadian bank account.
