Who is TraDove?
What problem does this cryptocurrency fix?
What makes this coin offering and business special?--
TraDove: “Unlock corporate demand for a token based business-to-business (B2B) marketing, sales, and trade platform.”
The Problem:
1. The explosive growth of the Internet accompanied by the creation of social networks has made information ubiquitous.
2. “B2B lags behind. In this space, information is Balkanized.”
3. Transparency is lacking.
4. Even after identifying a potential business partner, that potential partner’s “business quality” is often difficult to appraise.
5. In the consumer space, peer opinions are easily available using Yelp or Google Review. This is not the case in the B2B space, where targeted marketing is much more difficult.
6. Ultimately, trust is a problem.
TraDove was born to address these problems:
1. How do you find business partners quickly and credibly?
2. How do you assure the quality of potential business partners and the quality of products/services you plan to purchase?
3. How do you market your B2B products/services to hidden demands in a targeted way?
4. How do you assure that you will be paid for what you deliver or get what you paid for?
Who is TraDove?
1. TraDove, Inc. is a social networking site focused on business to business marketing.
2. “We can use smart contracts to solve the trust problem in the B2B space.” -Kent Yan, CEO TraDove
3. TraDove revolutionizes the way people do business by connecting partners and fostering deals using big data, artificial intelligence and block chain.
4. “Just as Facebook connects friends and LinkedIn connects professionals, we have built a business (social) network that connects corporate buyers, sellers, their products/services and companies.”
5. “Our network addresses the basic needs of any company by allowing them to buy and sell much faster and better.”
6. “We solve the information asymmetry problems in B2B and make it more transparent and trustworthy using block chain and social network technology.”
7. TraDove’s platform also allows for company-to-company precision marketing over the Internet, another multi-billion dollar business opportunity.
8. TraDove is the world’s most credible and trusted B2B Social Network that connects buyers and sellers.
9. “We shorten the cycles for Buyers and Suppliers to find each other and collaborate.”
10. “We make it fast, safe and easy for buyers and sellers around the world to connect.”
11. “Until now, no social network has been designed for B2B buyers and sellers.”
12. TraDove provides effective social-networking features – and an effective platform for B2B buying and selling.
13. By removing barriers and providing opportunities in sourcing, importing, exporting, purchasing and beyond, TraDove is changing the way we do business one connection at a time.
14. By creating vast opportunities for enhanced and continued dialogue, TraDove opens up an entirely new social world of B2B trading.
15. Spanning both local and global markets, TraDove operates with a commitment to help corporate buyers and sellers make deals.
16. By focusing on what buyers and sellers need and providing a unique, effective platform, TraDove stands out as a global trade magnet where you can establish productive relationships at any moment.
17. Many companies currently promoting or offering tokens are in the concept stage. TraDove is not.
18. TraDove’s Business Social Network has been in operation for five years and rests on a mature web platform (
https://www.tradove.com) and iOS mobile app (
https://app.tradove.com/app/download).
19. “We now have 250,000+ corporate users, 100,000+ companies from 80+ countries including 200+ Fortune 1000 companies. We have teams in Silicon Valley, US, China and Geneva, Switzerland and investors, advisors and consultants in most major economies: US, China, Germany, Japan, UK, Switzerland and South America.”
20. Unlike a consumer social network such as Facebook or a professional network such as LinkedIn, TraDove Business Social Network puts substantially more emphasis on traffic quality than on traffic quantity.
21. “We do not seek nor do we need hundreds of millions of users. We only need tens of millions of users.”
22. “A business user’s value is much higher than a professional user, which is in turn higher than that of a consumer user.”
23. “Our emphasis on traffic quality and not just quantity keeps our operational costs low and increases both business users’ value and our profit margins.”
24. “In the B2B 2.0 model, we let buyers and sellers find one another and maintain a relationship in return for membership and opportunity fees (e.g., opportunity to advertise and pitch to buyers) in BBCoins.”
25. TraDove specifically provides intercompany business networking and collaboration designed to enhance business partnerships.

Artificial Intelligence: “We support the active growth of our user and business databases with a wide range of AI technologies such as NLP, LR, RNN,FM and DNN to facilitate buyer-seller interactions, including, but not limited to, matching potential business partners, product/service and company recommendations and expressed needs alert services. When combined, these services significantly improve our users’ business efficiency.”

The two data centers, along with other content delivery technologies, quickly upload, store and deliver B2B marketing collaterals such as white papers, product pictures, product videos and other web contents to global users based on geographic distances to users.”
