The Opportunity
Aside from low-cost groceries, Internet Retail / eCommerce has been the only ray of light in an a fairly gloomy depression. Internet Retail is still growing at a rate of between 10 - 15% month-on-month. The most interesting statistic though is that Internet retails is still only around 5% of total retail sales - and has quite a way to go to catch up with the High Street.

There are of course numerous eCommerce solutions available in a very crowded marketplace. What Comrz does and provides though is pretty unique within this sector. Comrz’s eCommerce Solutions are actually ’Social Commerce’ where community, media and promotions are channelled together with eCommerce to deliver a seamless, totally immersive retail experience.
Amazon itself has made huge steps toward Social Commerce in recent times, and what Comrz does is build on the same ideology. The advantages of Social Commerce over traditional eCommerce are better customer retention, better targetting, better conversion rates and more sales. Comrz solutions are very attractively targeted at the SME level, offering enterprise-level functionality at a very accessible price range.
There is enormous growth potential in this area, and Comrz is well placed to take full advantage of this ongoing and increasing demand.
The Perfect Fit
Rome was not built in a day, and likewise, Comrz will not instantly become an overnight sensation. It needs some time to establish itself and grow. The perfect investment partner is a person or company, already involved in the Internet Sector, and ideally with several Internet-based companies in its portfolio wich can make use of Comrz’s offerings and services.
Comrz would sit very well within a portfolio of website-type businesses, and there should be obvious synergies for all involved.
Comrz is looking for a long-term involvement with its investors, people that have a genuine interest in Internet Technology, and specifically Social Commerce. The investor/s would be expected to take some kind of active role in the development of the company, and to have a hands-on approach when called upon.
The Rewards
From a solutions provisioning perspective, the startup costs are always the highest. The same goes with any site delivery / implementation - in that there is a very heavy resource utilisation at the start of the process. In the medium to long-term though, work effort diminishes considerably, and ongoing renewable subscriptions and services yield a very fair return on investment for an investor. As to what percentage or amount that would be, is entirly comensurate with the initial amount invested and conditions tied to said investment. The potential is considerable though.
