Идея

A crowdsourced travel concierge service and lifestyle management ecosystem where every traveler can request services tailored to his travel needs and budget. Delivered by resourceful local people and paid via blockchain enabled P2P payment system.
It's designed to deliver customer-centric service tailored to travelers’ needs and make travel experience really personalized experience around the world.

Текущее состояние

We have launched a fully operational platform. We have attracted MeetnGreeters in 160+ cities around the world. Earned our 1st revenue. We have started deliver services to American customers in Europe. We launched a pilot with a TEP Wireless company (Portable WiFi devices for travelers). Currently we are in the process of transforming MeetnGreetMe platform into crowdsourced blockchain enabled ecosystem.

Рынок

We are starting with the following paying customer's persona:
*30-45 years old
*experienced traveler
*bleisure traveler
*values time more than money
*knows what concierge service is.
*lives in the USA/Europe and travels to another country/culture.
P2P travel concierge market is a kind of new market which is derived from T&H market which is forecasted to grow.
More than 1,24 billion international arrivals took place in 2016 with the 4% yearly growth forecast. Size of Travel, Tourism & Hospitality market has already reached $ 7,17 trillion. More that 20% of travelers have got accustomed to P2P services. Our goal is to win 0,1% of international travelers by the end of 2021.

We want to travel carefree and ensure success of our trip.

Преимущества или дифференциаторы

MeetnGreetMe uniquely blends online social network with offline localized concierge services that deliver fun, authenticity and peace of mind while helping travelers to reach their travel goal. All the MeetnGreeters are personally verified.

Финансы

MeetnGreetMe is a marketplace built around a scalable business and operations model. Each paying customer brings revenue. Profits will be derived from the quantity of paying users, their check and frequency they use the service.
Our rough estimations are based on assumption that 1) by the end of 2021 MeetnGreetMe will serve 0,1% of international travelers, 2) it will operate in the majority of world cities and reach a number of 4 600 deals per day. 3) average check will be $50 per deal.
It will bring us $ 6.9M in monthly sales and generate $ 6.5 mln in profit for the year period as of 2021 (EBITDA).

Бизнес-модель

We started with earning a 20% commission fee from each transaction between MeetnGreeter and Guest.

Целевое назначение инвестиций

1) ensuring MeetnGreeters high quality level via community management and trainings (community development).
2) growing paying customer base and brand awareness one one side, attracting new MeetnGreeters on the other (marketing).
3) developing mobile app v2
4) advancing MeetnGreetMe platform features (IT development)
5) traveling

Предложение инвестору

We are looking to fundraise $1M for 20%.

Команда или Руководство

Риски

Appearance of a copy cat service which is better financially backed with an access to influential network.
Reasons forcing people stop traveling (global war; economic downturn but in this case MeetnGreeters will help to save money on not overpaying for services because you are a tourist).
MeetnGreeters fail on the service quality and customers' expectation.

Прохождение Инкубационных/Акселерационных программ

We participated in a week-long Traction Camp in Odessa (Ukraine) in 2015. Additionally, I had a glimpse into Entrepreneur Roundtable Accelerator’s program as a guest entrepreneur during my two week stay in New York in March 2016. Although I was not part of the cohort, I was offered to pitch my startup and apply for the following class.

Startup.Network прекращает свою работу в Российской Федерации и Беларуси.

В сложившейся ситуации компания не видит возможности продолжать работу в стране-агрессоре, которая угрожает сегодня как Украине, так и всему миру.

Санкционная политика международной платформы означает:

Остановку сайта ru.startup.network и by.startup.network. Стартапы из РФ и Беларуси больше не смогут размещать свои заявки на поиск инвестиций на нашей платформе.
Остановку проведение Unicorn Pitches Russia. Это значит, что мы больше не будем проводить Unicorn.Events на территории России и допускать стартапы, которые физически находятся на территории РФ, к нашему всемирному конкурсу. Также в жюри не смогут участвовать VC, которые находятся на территории РФ или не выступают против вторжения России на Украину.
Остановку приема денег из Российской Федерации в наш Синдикатный Фонд.
