THE SOCIAL EDDY
STORY
Like most things worth pursuing, Social Eddy started
out as a dream…1
Our co-founder and product manager
Monica Zamfir always wanted to create
something that could potentially influence
people's lives in a positive way.
Asked to come up with an idea worthy of her
investor’s interest and funds, she started doing
some serious research...
2
…and came up
with one crazy idea:
What if there were a tool
that could help brands do
more social media
marketing in less time?
Her research revealed that there was indeed a
market for such a tool, but that all of the tools on
the market were too expensive, too complicated,
and/or too incomplete to offer any real value.
3
She wanted to create
a tool that gave the user
complete control over his
social media presence.
Inspired by the idea of a “social whirlpool,” she
dubbed this yet-to-be-developed tool Social Eddy.4
After getting the green light from her investor,
she started building the Social Eddy team…
…and things were difficult at first.
GO
Separated by thousands of miles, we never met
or really had any clue who anybody was.5
In time, however, we all made an effort to
get to know one another, and it paid off…
We started working together as a real team!6
With our eyes all on the same goal,
we worked together to create a real solution
for people just like us.
We worked around the clock to make sure our
tool could keep others from, well, having to work
around the clock.
7
Social Eddy is what it is because the
people who are behind it gave and continue
to give their best. Our tool draws its essence
from our team spirit.
Oh, and we just launched a few weeks ago!
Woohoo!
