Market Opportunity

PeopleJam is the first company to deliver a full-featured social media product that satisfies user and advertiser interest in aspirational lifestyle content.

Demo Says

PeopleJam is one of two companies at DEMOfall that are taking the social network once reserved for teenagers and transforming it into a sector for the rest of us (that would be anyone over the age of 25). Social networks are indeed great for online socializing and fun but they are also excellent environments for achieving difficult goals, learning from others with more experience and enriching our lives as a whole. PeopleJam recognized this potential and has created a space that encourages users to learn from inspiration, professional coaching, and dialogue. It’s the best kind of technology story—taking a product once reserved for the tech crowd and delivering it to the mass consumer to make a real difference in people’s lives.
