Mum Takes Daring Leap Into Entrepreneurship With an App to Change Online Shopping Forever
Sharon Clark's time as a mother has opened up new forms of expression and entrepreneurism. She is now a Melbourne tech entrepreneur, who after seven years out of the workforce and two kids later, has launched a breakthrough online shopping assist; Clinch.
Melbourne, Australia, December 20, 2015 (Newswire.com) - While renovating her house, Sharon needed to find products, organise her options, compare prices and share them with her family/friends. She couldn’t find a simple way to do it and so she birthed Clinch to not only solve her own problem but also provide a solution for the rest of the world.
“I am an avid follower of fashion and interiors, living remotely with two young children and a home to renovate, I would research and buy almost everything online. Although online shopping has evolved and become part of our everyday lives, I found myself adopting some pretty creative behaviours trying to get around the current system that just didn’t work.
Clinch came from my will to create an empowered browsing experience that meets the needs and behaviours of Online Shoppers, enabling assured purchase decisions.
Clinch also adds value and revenue to any Merchant; by addressing consumers behaviours and creating a better browsing experience, we help to optimise conversion rates, and as a result currently have in excess of 2000 affiliated brands worldwide and growing.”
- Sharon Clark, Co-Founder/CEO of Clinch
Although Clinch is self-funded the founders are currently hitting the investment trail. Since the app’s soft launch on the iPad in April 2015, Clinch has had some very early validity by coming 3rd in the Anthill Smart 100 and being part of the Top 100 startups at Echelon in Singapore.
Bloggers all over the world have also joined the Clincholution by spreading positive reviews of the app. As a result, Clinch has a strong ranking within the App Store Lifestyle sections across Asia, Africa, Europe, America and South America. Sharon will not stop until she can provide a solution for the rest of the world.
This is Clinch:
Established in October 2014, Clinch Pte Ltd was brought together with Sharon and a humble group of experts from the tech and retail industries, across Asia and Australia. Clinch has come 3rd in Anthill Smart 100 and was a part of the Top 100 startups at Echelon in Singapore. The company is self-funded and currently hitting the investment trail.
