Having garnered substantial acclaim and positive feedback from the Los Angeles community, Thumzup plans to replicate its success on a larger scale, beginning with the Northwest. The Company’s innovative approach, monetarily rewarding users for sharing brand experiences on social media platforms via the Thumzup app, is revolutionizing promotional strategies and user engagement, fostering a unique connection between brands and consumers.
“We are proud to welcome Hope and Sesame® to the Thumzup family. This collaboration signifies a major leap forward in our mission to connect brands and consumers in meaningful ways,” said Robert Steele, CEO and Founder of Thumzup. “This strategic expansion into new markets is a testament to the incredible response we’ve received from the Los Angeles community. We believe that by joining forces with an innovative brand like Hope and Sesame® that has created a new on-trend category in the skyrocketing plant milk market with their breakthrough sesamemilk, we are not only broadening our reach but also enriching the consumer experience with rewarding interactions that spotlight sustainable, quality products. Our vision is to transform the landscape of social media marketing, making it more genuine and engaging for users across the nation.”
The partnership implements a dual-strategy approach to foster both Thumzup and Hope and Sesame®’s expansion and consumer engagement. The first aspect of this strategy enables Thumzup to utilize Hope and Sesam®e’s existing placements in Costco stores across various states, aiding in broadening its market footprint. Concurrently, the collaboration aims to enhance Hope and Sesame®’s brand resonance and deepen consumer connection to further amplify product sales.
“We are excited to launch our breakthrough Barista Blend on the Thumzup App so our Costco consumers in the Pacific Northwest can help spread awareness about Hope and Sesame® in one of our key growth markets,” commented Julia Stamberger, CEO & Co-Founder of The Planting Hope Company. “With 2x the protein of almond and oat barista milks and a dramatically lower water footprint, planet-friendly sesamemilk froths, foams, steams and performs like a dream in hot and iced beverages – Hope and Sesame is poised to be a favorite of influencers, plant-milk aficionados, and coffee-lovers as they discover it and add sesamemilk to their beverages! As we continue to expand our brands nationwide, we understand the power of social media and look forward to our products going viral.”
