PROBLEM: Brand sustainability is now a decisive criterion for 65% of consumers, employees & investors, worldwide. Nonetheless, info on companies' sustainability is still so hard to find/showcase, compare/differentiate and trust/prove let alone engage with - that at least 39% of sustainable consumers give up without a sustainable company match - to everyone's loss. SOLUTION: ‘hoodHeroes is a sustainable market hub that is making sustainability everybody's everyday business. We exist because it’s truly a new dawn today with unignorable demand, supply (& need) for sustainability. By now, the market opportunity is simply so great that it speaks for itself. Therefore, it is quite a problem that the market still is disconnected, since 39% of all people whom look for the right sustainable brand to support ultimately give up, due to a lack of awareness, trust and confusion. But what if the sustainability of companies was profiled, rated, and validated - all in one place – powered by gamified crowdsourcing? That kind of solution would generate the awareness, differentiation and trust needed to connect sustainable demand and supply in the hectic everyday market. Simply imagine an “IMDB for company sustainability”, that allows citizens to 1) look-up, 2) compare and 3) review the sustainability of any brand in the market (together with expert sources), while companies conversely can 1) Showcase their sustainability altogether, on the ‘hoodHeroes platform, their own website and marketplaces, 2) Collaborate with the ecosystem to prove and approve their sustainability and 3) Learn how to build resonating brand love via big data analytics. COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE: When it comes to competition, there are undoubtedly a bunch of actors to keep an eye on, yet these are focused on either 1) a niche, 2) B2B-only or (at least not yet) sustainability, and all are less available* and involving** brand sustainability hubs than ‘hoodHeroes. The underlying magic at work here is our gamified crowdsourcing that, not only offers a very scalable content-creation system (profiling, rating & validating company sustainability), but also a uniquely meaningful (and potentially even patentable) rating system that triangulates the value-driven perspective of citizens with the fact-driven perspective of experts. *Availability: width, depth, comparability & presence of info) & **Involvement: impactability, credibility & incentivization of interaction with the sustainability of brands)
