In July 2014, Sagoon launched Version 1.0 (product – secret sharing) as a private beta in Washington DC. It was tremendously successful with hundreds of thousands of users signing up for testing the beta version. In November 2015, Sagoon launched Version 2.0 (new products – My Day and Mood Talk) as a public beta in Kathmandu. It gained Sagoon global attention and enormous media hike, which resulted in half a million users signing up to use ‘secret sharing’ and other products.

The average time a single user spends on Sagoon is 3 minutes and 30 seconds; this insight into engagement is really impressive when compared to other social sites.

Key Considerations

We think that an informed decision is a wise decision. Before you decide to come aboard as an investor, please read our Offering Circular. We'd like to draw your attention to the following:

• 

  We are focused on more than $300 billion social commerce market. We intend that our major revenue sources in the first phase will be “gifting and socializing” coupons.

• 

  We believe we are the pioneer of social media monetization – a unique business innovation that has the potential to change the way the social media landscape is used today.

• 

  We are positioning Sagoon as a social movement. The motivation in investing in Sagoon is not just to get financial returns but also to foster innovation from an isolated community and underserved market.

• 

  We are a very passionate and committed team of entrepreneurs, who have full confidence in what we observe, perform and execute.

• 

  We are developing the opportunity for users to earn money while they socialize with their loved ones; it will be made possible through a ‘Social Smart Card’ that we believe creates a spin cycle of positive outcomes - more gifting, more advertising. That is our plan for successful growth.

• 

  The word 'sagoon' is a well- recognized household name among billions of people in South Asia and other parts of the world.

• 

  We have a long-term vision. Since inception, we have been located in the United States and India - where more than 500 million potential users access the Internet. We are also located in Nepal - a transit spot to China where more than 700 million potential users surf the Internet.

• 

  Investing in startups is risky. Please read all the risk factors set out in our Offering Circular.

Our Business

Sagoon Inc. aims to be a GIFTING company.

We believe that the company is set to disrupt the $300 billion worth social gifting market and plan to share its earnings with every single user by creating the social path: CONNECT – SHARE – EARN.

Sagoon intends to achieve its mission of making the world a better place to live by helping people build true connections, share useful experiences and earn while socializing. We believe reinventing the concept of social gifting would improve people’s relationships and make them cherish each moment spent with their loved ones.

We discovered that people had many friends but little closeness, that they had many connections but few real bonds.

Keeping this in mind, we created Sagoon - a social commerce network focused on cultivating closeness and bonds, and creating close relationships. We wanted it to be unique, in that we meant it to be a ‘problem solver’; one that adds value by humanizing, providing a platform to voice your opinions, feelings, emotions or even confessions — without being judged.

Therefore, we call Sagoon a “social movement”- CONNECT – SHARE – EARN

Connect

People want their lives to be more fruitful. We just don’t want you to connect. We want you to build a beautiful relationship with your people and want your time here in Sagoon to be useful - productive and better organized.

Share

We understand that each relationship in your life is special. Our aim is to enrich the quality of interactions with the people who matter most to you. We don’t want you to share everything you find with your people. That creates boring relations. Instead, share your experiences, feelings and thoughts that would create better bonds or turn out to be a life- saving gift to others.

Earn

We want to share our earnings with you. By spending time with us, we want you to learn, enjoy, and earn knowledge and cash rewards.
