JOOR is an Awesome Platform to make Connections, Grow and Build your Brand!
What do you like best?
We like having one place to go to, to meet and connect with buyers from all around the world. JOOR is easy to use, and gives your online store a sophisticated 'store front.' Your 'storefront' groups everything together, so it's clear and buyers can learn mostly everything about your brand on one clear page. The linesheets are really the best part. They are very detailed and beautiful to look at. You can research all the stores before you reach out to them. You can see location, price point, and the types of products that the stores sell before you reach out to them. It's a relationship building tool.
What do you dislike?
I wouldn't call it a dislike, because nothing good comes easy, but you do have to spend a good amount of time inputing information onto spreadsheets but the result is a gift of beautiful and clear linesheets you can use to continue to build your brand. I believe you will get out of JOOR what you put into it. You will have to reach out to people, connect with buyers, and still do research, you just have an easier way to do so. You still have to do the work to build your business.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider yourself lucky to be able to use JOOR in order to build your brand. It will surely make the process go faster and give you opportunities you may never have had. It makes the world much smaller and your brand much bigger! Give it a try!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I'm making it easier for brands to be able to get to know my brand by being present on the platform. As an emerging brand, I have to get in front of Buyers in order to sell my products. The more I see, the better it is for me as a brand. The first problem solved is being able to have access to buyers from all around the world.
The next would be having a platform to sell on and being able to direct buyers to it in. It's professional and It's also an eco friendly way to work, you don't have to print out lookbooks and linesheets to send to consumers all around the world and it gives designers an opportunity to sell much easier. I've realized it makes me pay more attention to merchandising and pricing and challenges me to be competitive in the market. You get to see everything laid out, and it's all in one place. Ultimately, it makes me even more thoughtful about my business.
