  Creator of the SPINDOTS group Projetos SPINDOTS - Discount Exchange Social Network junho de 2016 SPINDOTS is the 1st DISCOUNT EXCHANGE SOCIAL NETWORK that brings together consumers, brands ad retailers in the same network, completely free for consumers. SPINDOTS business model is set in a responsive web platform that eliminates the loyalty cards’ overdose and the inefficiency of the actual sales promotion techniques and loyalty programmes. When joining SPINDOTS, the consumer immediately accumulates a portfolio of discounts of brands and products, based solely on their desires, life style and interests. Discounts’ socialization enables consumers to relate to each other, offering, exchanging, redeeming and donating to NGOs discounts that they do not want.This platform whilst enabling consumers to effectively manage a portfolio of discounts ensures brands and retailers a direct relationship and a deeper understanding of the motivations and consumers purchase behaviour. SPINDOTS ensures a higher ROI to brands and retailers as they pay solely on the basis of effective contacts and sales generated.But SPINDOTS is also a medium that increases brand awareness trough media space and content sharing to highly segmented audiences. It is also a powerful source of consumer insights (Business Intelligence). SPINDOTS was one of 66 Portuguese startups selected to represent Portugal in the WEB SUMMIT 2016 that will take place in Lisbon from 7 to 10 November 2016, under the ROAD2WEBSUMMIT contest sponsored by His Excellency the President of the Portuguese Republic and the organization of WEB SUMMIT 2016. 4 membros de equipe José Pedro Gonçalves Co-Founder & CEO at SPINDOTS Antonio Mendes Co-Founder & Chief Operating Officer at SPINDOTS Rúben de Almeida-Domingues Co-Founder & Chief Marketing Officer - Global at SPINDOTS Manuel Napoleão Leal Co-Founder & SSM Global at SPINDOTS Show less
