Social networking through shared experiences

spark.love | sunny@spark.love
Discovery is abundant. Belonging is scarce.

02 / 14 · THE PROBLEM

Discovery is abundant. Belonging is scarce.

Existing products optimise for profiles, swipes, chats or event listings. They do not reliably get the right people into a real room together.

AI is making digital interaction abundant. Trusted human connection is becoming more valuable.

The missing layer is trusted social discovery with a designed path from intent to attendance.

Social networking through real experiences.

03 / 14 · THE SOLUTION

Social networking through real experiences.

A social network connecting people through shared interests and bookable experiences, one-to-one and in groups.

  1. Verified members

    Standards and context before the introduction.

  2. Shared interests

    Friendships, professional connections and shared activities.

  3. Experiences and SPARK Tables

    Meet one-to-one, or join a group. Tables are in development.

Build relationships that continue after the experience.

The product already moves from trust to meeting.

04 / 14 · THE PRODUCT

Auckland is the wedge - not the destination.

09 / 14 · THE NEXT PROOF MARKET

Auckland is the wedge - not the destination.

Bangkok was free-led and broad. Auckland is curated, paid and measured from day one.

  1. Paid from day one

    Offer membership as part of entry.

  2. Deliberate density

    Start with 100 curated founding members.

  3. Economics from day one

    Track conversion, repeat, CAC and margin.

  4. Expansion gate

    No second city until the playbook works.

Bangkok proved the behaviour. Auckland must prove the economics.

Membership earns trust. Meetings create upside.

10 / 14 · BUSINESS MODEL
