📊Business Analysis

🎯Target Audience

The platform primarily targets individual retail investors, ranging from first-time investors seeking educational resources to experienced investors looking for personalized investment opportunities.

⚠️Problem Statement

Retail investors often struggle to find investment products that align with their individual financial goals, leading to suboptimal financial decisions. A personalized platform is critical to navigate these challenges effectively.

💰Payment Readiness

With increasing competition in the investment sector and a growing emphasis on user experience, retail investors are ready to pay for services that provide personalized and efficient investment solutions, driven by the need for better returns and informed decision-making.

🚨Consequences

Failing to address this need could result in lost market share as competitors offering more personalized and engaging e-commerce experiences capture customer interest and investment dollars.

🔍Market Alternatives

Current alternatives include generic investment platforms that do not offer tailored experiences. Competitors are beginning to explore personalization, but the integration of AR and headless commerce remains limited.

Unique Selling Proposition

Our platform's unique combination of headless commerce, personalization, and AR technology differentiates it by providing an engaging, user-centric shopping experience that simplifies complex investment decision-making.

📈Customer Acquisition Strategy

Our strategy involves targeted digital marketing campaigns, partnerships with financial advisors, and leveraging social commerce trends to attract and retain retail investors, particularly focusing on personalized content and user education.
