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’.
