Interview with GoGetSale CEO: Cem C. Cetiner

Here we are for our second adventurous week.

Last time you have met the fantastic ‘girls’ of our team.

This week we would like to introduce you to Cem C. Cetiner, the CEO of GoGetSale because our company is formed by people who have a dedication and passion for providing the best service to their members.

Every day, with their hard work and efforts, they are trying to build an excellent company, looking to be innovative and ethical.

Cem and his wife 

Sara and Annie: ‘We are going to start with a hard question: Are you having fun?’

Cem: ‘Fun is a relative term. Most people would think that this is actually very hard to do but in reality I’m having the most fun I have had in any prior work I did.  This challenge allows me and my team to use all of our creativity, interactivity and to try all the crazy ideas normally we would be scared to. (What was your question...Oh I remember)

The answer is yes.  I’m having fun’.

S. & A.: ‘Tell us about yourself?’

C.: ‘I’ve been married for 30 years (to the same woman) and I have two beautiful daughters.  Five years ago I rode my motorcycle across USA which was my last desperate attempt at saving my youth. Right now I would never think of doing it again. Let alone doing it!

I have enjoyed travelling to over 40 countries for work exploring different cultures, meeting new people and discovering new places.

I have been exposed to computers (definitely not Apple) since 1977 and I have seen the growth of the computer industry from keypunch cards to voice activated smartphones’.

S. & A.: ‘What is your personal work ethic, and how does this affect the company culture?’

C.: Benjamin Franklin once said ‘Honesty is the best policy; therefore, ’honesty, transparency and ethical conduct are the foundations upon which we are going to expand our company.

GoGetSale is a community and I am trying to reflect these ideals in our company.

We went to great trouble to insure that our website is transparent with our intentions and informs our members in clear terms our responsibilities and our expectations from them.  This is the core of our business model.

S. & A.: ‘How do you think shopping buying behavior has changed in recent years and how does GoGetSale position itself?’

C.: ‘Recently I have read an article on an online magazine and did you know that online shopping is now more popular in the UK than in any other country in the world, with UK consumers spending an average of £1,083 a year online?

I believe that shopping has become a social activity where people are sharing the bargaings they find on various social media platforms and GoGetsale is perfectly positioned itself to capitalize on this social media revolution and interconnectivity.

At a time where people are under increasing financial pressure, GoGetSale offers everyone the chance to earn cashback on the purchases they make, and provides an unique opportunity to earn additional money by inviting friends to join, shop and save money as well’.

S. & A.: ‘What are your top three expectations from GoGetSale?’

C.: ‘First of all I want our members to think of GoGetSale as their community and interact with us and each other and share their successes and problems.

Secondly, I would like to be able to negotiate with merchants better prices for the products our members want to buy, therefore, saving our members more money.

And then I want GoGetSale to be socially responsible by planting trees, reducing our corporate carbon foot print, encouraging public transport, recycling whenever we can and supporting those social programs in line with our vision.

We love and care for the environment and know that we need to help protect what we have for a better future’.
