Hey guys, we actually built this concept the week of Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday.

We built The Evolyte Store in 14 days, spent 1 day marketing, and received nearly 18,000 pageviews and $30,000 in reserved sales.

We were selling a 32GB Wi-Fi iPad at up to $100 off and the business model was like Groupon + Woot had a superhero baby (a little corny, we know :)

You can read our case studies detailing every aspect of the design, development, and marketing process (what my firm specializes in) here:

We're currently trying to figure out what we're going to do with this Store going forward as we only built it to market our professional services, and not to be an eCommerce competitor.
