Sales is both an art and a science and ShopShops will be rewarding one user who can sell a white t-shirt with $10,000. The platform specializes in interactive shopping experiences held via livestream events and to find the next star host, the ShopShops wants to see people submit their best 30-second video to "sell" a white t-shirt. On social media, users are invited to share why the t-shirt is a must-have, and potentially kick off a new career as a full-time ShopShops host and join others who are making up to $20,000 monthly.
Liyia Wu, founder and CEO of ShopShops, says: “In China where livestream shopping is very common, our live hosts are mega celebrities. People trust their opinion and purchase what they say. We believe live sellers will be the new mega influencers in the U.S. as live shopping continues to really take off here.”
