HelpJess Connects Consumers to Brick-and-Mortar Retail Staff

HelpJess is now introducing itself to the world as a first-of-its-kind live shopping video experience. While there are many live shopping apps that help to connect consumers to one another, or to other retailers online, HelpJess converges the convenience of personal shopping with live video chat and the brick-and-mortar experience.

The experience promises "a paradigm-shifting model" for merchants, offering them a unique way to offer the best of both online and offline sales channels. With HelpJess' patented interactive video solution, consumers can virtually make face-to-face connections with in-store staff and make purchases with ease at no additional cost of using the service.

According to HelpJess inventor Simon La Barrie, "There’s a lot of chatter around struggling brick-and-mortar stores. We’ve got their backs by bridging a connection between in-store purchase and online reach and convenience.”
