What made you decide to pivot Koji towards e-commerce?

“We made the decision to pivot after it became clear that creators were using the Koji ecosystem to monetize. We knew that our dashboard would help creators see which content and products drive the most business and, at the end of the day, we didn’t want creators to feel that the Koji monetization tools are only for those who also use a Koji Link in Bio as their launcher. We hope to provide monetization capabilities to anyone selling on social.”

Is Koji affected by this recession and how are you navigating through it?

While as humans we worry greatly about the impact of the global recession, as a company, we’re fairly well-positioned to help the millions that are struggling or have been laid off. Because Koji is much easier to set up than a traditional storefront or online store, we’re ready to help everyone build a social media-powered business or side gig with the power of Koji’s flexible selling templates.
