Amazon reinvented E-commerce, and Tyme is going to reinvent L-commerce! As a reminder -- we are down to the last 36 hours where (and for the first $150,000 in dollars invested) friends and family will be able to take advantage of a $5M valuation cap (instead of $6M) and a 15% discount.
Walk into a retail store, scan the items you want to buy and be on your way. Order your favorite Salmon teriyaki bowl on your way to Bart, as you leave work. Pre-order your coffee as you jump into the car. Tyme is reinventing L-commerce and making sure we save our most precious resource: Tyme!
Platforms like Wefunder allow us to raise a 'close family and friends' round and give that future potential ownership to our closest supporters. Here are some questions that have come up in the last few days that I wanted to address as well:
Q: What is Equity Crowdfunding?
A: Equity crowdfunding allows businesses to raise money from a large group of people at smaller investment amounts. In return, those people get a financial stake in that company.
Q: Is this Kickstarter?
A: No. On Wefunder, you’re not donating; you’re investing. You’re not just a fan, you’re an owner.Here’s a fun fact: in 2012, Oculus Rift closed a Kickstarter round of $2.4 Million. Two years later, Facebook bought Oculus for $2 Billion. If those Kickstarter backers had invested instead of donating they could have had a 154x return on their investment.
Thank you for being a supporter. And remember...it's go tyme!
Cheers,
Bobby & Marius
