We connect idols and fans by creating a new category of gifts in video message format.
Current Status
We launched our V1 in July 2020, we had a very good traction, where we got more than 280 celebrities with a signed contract. We are a C2C business, so just like Uber in the beginning needed drivers, we need celebrities. The current moment we are very focused on sales, only in December our best month we made more than R $ 18 K in ordered videos.
Market
Brazil is the second country that most uses social networks in the world and currently the category of engagement with celebrities is the one that grows the most in 2020, precisely in this market of social networks that Brazil is so strong. On the other hand, only in 2019 did e-commerce earn 14.08 billion dollars, showing the potential of the marketplace here - having a market with a very strong national culture, we believe in the great potential for success of TamoVip.
Problem or Opportunity
We realized the need for small celebrities to be able to monetize their image and the difficulty for fans to connect with their idols. So being a C2C company, on the one hand we have the celebrities who served to supply the demand for videos monetizing their image and on the other end we have customers who want to buy a personalized video of their favorite idol, either for himself or as a gift on a special occasion. Brazil is the second country that most uses social networks in the world and in 2019 e-commerce earned 14.08 billion dollars, we believe that we have great potential here. In the USA, the celebrity market is the fastest growing in recent years and our business model has been receiving a very interesting acceptance with Cameo. Their traction on revenue is going from $ 0mm two years ago, $ 5mm last year, $ 100mm this year and with an estimate to become a unicorn by the end of this year.
