The Social Mall

About

From Poke (social interaction)
to Purchase (e-commerce)…


The Social Mall, Inc was formed in January of 2008 to capitalize on a lucrative and emerging opportunity in social media; leveraging powerful social networks to facilitate the sale of consumer products.


The Roots
The concept was born in September of 2007 by Dr. Ben Rabizadeh, an executive of Frumster, LLC, as a marketing tool for a new designer shoe brand in which a private investment was pending. In support of this pending venture, a social utility was developed and released on Facebook.com – the fastest growing and most active social network in the world with 60 million active users.


The Product and Vision
The beta product was initially released promoting only one line of shoes. This however was just a transition as the potential of the product quickly became apparent; aided by enthusiastic and positive feedback from the initial userbase.


The vision for a full-fledged virtual social mall quickly developed and has been the driving force for the company ever since. This vision has been validated with enthusiasm by leading experts and investors in the industry putting us on the cutting-edge of a paradigm shift from e-commerce to s-commerce (social commerce).


Experience
The company is led by experts in social networking and e-commerce.


The experience Dr. Rabizadeh brings from Frumster.com & Jwed.com, subscription-based social networking sites with a focus on marriage-oriented dating, has been instrumental in driving the vision and developing the product.


Dr. Rabizadeh welcomes the recent additions of Jason Olim, Founder of CDNow, and Noreen Sullivan, Queen of Social Media, to the Advisory Board. They join the dynamic duo of Richard Hecker, Chairman of the Board and Danny Panzer, CTO who are working intimately with Dr. Rabizadeh in developing the product.


Next Steps
Once optimized for shoes, the company plans to develop the software for multiple product lines, multiple social platforms, and on privately owned domains not under the control of third parties.


We are currently seeking highly motivated investors who have the resources and expertise to bring this lucrative opportunity to its full fruition. Contact us for a friendly conversation.
