Christmas coverage and PayPal update

Friday, December 19th, 2008

Today we issued a press release reminding people that GetThemIn is perfect for sorting out those last minute Christmas present dilemmas or getting the Christmas drinks in with your mates without actually being there. And, just in case you missed it, we also subtly announced that we’ve switched from Google Checkout to PayPal, in response to requests from all of our users. We think it’s even easier to use the GetThemIn application now and really value your feedback, so keep it coming. 

We were also featured in the Guardian, which we’re pretty chuffed about. Click through for the full piece and check out some of the retweets and comments we’re getting on Twitter right now. Oh and if you do have any questions then please do get in touch at press(at)getthemin(dot)com. 

Have a great Christmas and see you all in the New Year. 

 

New “How does GetThemIn work?” video

Monday, December 8th, 2008

After a great launch, we’ve been inundated with interest from all corners of the world, with loads of exciting brands keen to find out more about GetThemIn and the potential to partner with us. In between getting back to everyone’s emails, phone calls and working on the next version of the GetThemIn app, we’ve also managed to make this - a short video that explains GetThemIn in an ever-so-slightly tongue in cheek, hopefully amusing kind of way.

It features the star-studded line-up of Jay, ‘John’ and ‘Chris’ from GetThemIn - let us know what you think!

Amongst all the press coverage we’ve had since launch, we were also recently featured on Springwise and Brand Republic where Jay was quoted rather nicely as saying:

“It is fantastic to have the UK’s leading independent specialist drinks retailer as our partner in our debut Facebook application that allows people to buy each other real alcoholic drinks over social networking sites for the first time ever.”

More updates soon - get in touch if you have any questions, ideas or just want to say hi.
