Ideal Network is a values-based marketplace that creates collective impact by connecting consumers, merchants and causes. This marketplace delivers measurable value to each of the participating member: Causes get engagement and a new fund-raising tool. Merchants get an easy way to support their community, while also building their business. Consumers get to harness their purchasing power in support of their values.
We became a B-Corp because we believe business/corporations not only have to take responsible for our community, but also must lead by example in how to steward shared responsibility.
Purchases are the engines that drive this marketplace via daily deals (launched Feb 2011), a loyalty program, and an affiliate program to be launched later this year. Every time a consumer (member) makes a purchase on the Ideal Network, a portion goes to his or her selected cause.
The Change We Seek™
The change they seek is to have every purchase fund a non profit of the consumer's choice.
