The Chris Voss Show Podcast - Gem The App - The Elite Way of Gifting CES 2020 Booth Interview

Hi folks, Chris Voss here from thechrisvossshow.com, the Chris Voss Show. Hey, welcome to the podcast. We're covering all these really cool booths from CS 2020. And oh my God, we're in Eureka Park with another one. This is a company called GEM. You can go to booth 52461 to see them. It stands for Global Entertainment Matrix. And we're here interviewing the CEO, Sam Zipp. Sam,

how are you doing today? Great, Chris. How are you? Good. Welcome to the big show. Thank you. So tell us about GEM or Global Entertainment Matrix. What is it about? Oh, give us a link so we can look it up if people aren't here. Well, absolutely. Well, first and foremost, we'd love for everyone to join our waitlist, 5,000 and growing at gemtheapp.com. And we are a private elite gifting and booking platform where we facilitate transactions and we guarantee gift delivery to the person directly. Wow. So if I want to send a gift to somebody, you guys make sure that gets facilitated right and then you make sure it gets delivered to them.

Yeah, absolutely. And we like to staple ourselves as an elite platform. So as users right now, you need a minimum of 10,000 followers to join our platform. Wow. And we use a company called Lob for address verification, so that way we know it's actually going to the person and not their agency or their PO box. And we take away that shotgun approach where it's literally a direct interest where both users actually want what the brand is offering.

I should join then. I have over 10,000 users and I can get everyone to send me gifts. Actually, you did join, Chris. I did. I did get that email. Yeah, yeah. It's been a long day already. Day one.

I'm still trying to feel my legs. So this is pretty cool. You guys got some fun going on here at the booth. So if you guys come on by, what do you guys have going on at the booth today? Sure, we just like to, you know, we could demo our app, but anyone that just signs up to our wait list that wants more information, we want everyone leaving feeling good.

We have a little gift bag with some cool gem pop sockets, some, there's some candy in there, little surprises, but. I like the candy part. I'm gonna wander off with this little vase you have. No problem. We've got some hidden back here. Don't worry. Plenty to go around.

That's permission. He just gave permission to everyone. You got my consent. You never know that. So they can download your app. They can learn about it and get involved. Sure. What else do we need to know about what the Gem Act does?

Yeah, I mean, I feel like we're disrupting a category that hasn't really been introduced to the space a lot of brands we don't want to call ourselves a marketing agency we don't want to call ourselves a talent agency we are literally taking the complex space of gifting and booking and making things simple again there you go we're taking everything that's complicated from reaching the outreach, finding the similar interests, finding your niche market, and we're just making it simple in-app. So brands, individuals, you go to bed, you can go on your Facebook, your Instagram, but just know when you go to the gemapp.com and you open our app up, you have a plethora of individuals and free gifts that you

can just claim that meet your criteria. Cool. And like I said, if anybody wants to send me lots of free gifts using the Gem app, you're certainly welcome to. There you go. We love to have you guys on board. I mean, that's what we're here for. Sounds good, guys. So come down to booth 52461.
