DarbySmart:工藝品DIY創意平臺由前高盛銀行家Nicole Shariat Farb 創立,總部在舊金山的創業公司希望能夠通過銷售有趣、易於對照的手工藝套件顛覆現有的工藝品行業,同時為業餘愛好者提供動手平臺。
Darby Smart 銷售的 DIY 套件定價區間在24美元至44美元之間(包郵),這些商品均由 Pinterest 或相關部落格上一些較為知名的設計師和手工藝創作者設計;作為回報,設計師將得到部分產品銷售分成。手工藝行業的市場機遇非常得大,而對於諸如 Michaels 和 Hobby Lobby 等傳統巨頭遲遲不願部署線上業務的行為她覺得相當費解。
Darby Smart 首款產品將是一隻來自時尚雜誌的手拿包套件,而全新的商品將以每隔3天的速度進行更新。Darby Smart 並無計劃涉足按月訂購業務,人們會因我們銷售的驚豔商品而來,並不是因為信用卡被繫結而被迫返回。
