Do you expect influencers or curators with a large following on here? A lot of the stuff I buy just comes from what’s recommended on a Reddit wiki page. It would be nice to see some kind of FAQ or buying guide for different interests for when I don’t want to do much research. Somewhere to look for a curated list of entry level to high end leaf blowers, for example.
- noahchums 6y agoWe are focused on peer-to-peer recommendations over influencers. It's the not the best platform for them since they can't directly earn money for the recommendations. I see a possibility of influencers using Chums and curating their favorite stuff on their profile but I don't see it being an influencer driven platform.
- DC1350 6y agoNo problem. I like the groups idea that was mentioned. Your UI is really nice and I see that you’re hiring. Do you have a job posting up somewhere? I’m looking for new grad opportunities this year.
- dickfickling 6y agoHey, we've got a formal post up for our design opening here: https://www.workatastartup.com/companies/22566 https://www.workatastartup.com/companies/22566 Right now our focus is on a designer and an engineer with a few years of work experience each, but get in touch at dick@chums.co and we'll see if there's a fit.
- dickfickling 6y agoRegarding the curated list suggestion: it's definitely on our to-do list. Our plan is for groups (called Buckets in Chums) to have a way to pin products or reviews to the top. So if somebody's passionate about e.g. garden power tools, they'll be able to moderate the bucket, post a curated list of products, and pin it to the top.
- DC1350 6y agoVery cool. Thanks for replying!
