Zaarly stories is a collection ot the best experiences our users have in their local marketplace.
So our friend Tyler across the street at Tremor Media came in the other day and pranked the Zaarly offices. We only thought it would be right if we sent him some love. So we Zaarly’d a little singing telegram….
A special thanks to @MariaJoyner on her Zaarly Vacation and of course our very own Babs.
Sorry Ari…
As usual Zaarly is always thinking of out-of-the-box stunts to do in order to turn some heads. This past Sunday we decided to Swing Dance. I am sure most of you are not familiar with Swing Dancing but it is a group of dances that developed with the swing style of jazz music in the 1920-1950s.
This Sunday, Pocket invited several friends to participate in a swing dance flash mob. The group got together in Washington Square Park and, let me tell you, their hips certainly did not lie.
All participants wore super naarly Zaarly t-shirts.
The dancing caught the interest of several people passing by, some who even decided to participate.
I had to take a last-minute trip to Los Angeles for a meeting, and was super bummed about missing the Avicii concert on July 17th on Governors Island. All of my friends had purchased tickets way in advance, so no one who I knew in my personal network needed my ticket. I decided that I’d post my ticket on Zaarly, happy for anyone to pay the price I paid just so I could get it out of my hands. Imagine my delight when I opened up my Zaarly iPhone app and saw that someone was willing to pay $100 for one Avicii ticket! Immediately, the buyer and I started contacting one another. We did the trade-off two days later, West (the buyer’s name) came to my office and we talked for a little about our mutual love for house music and Avicii. We had to complete a few forms and talk to the ticketing office before the process was finished, and our teamwork was pretty awesome.
On another note-I’m the one who listed the Lion King musical tickets so I hope that works out too!—Victoria S., New York, New York
These posts actually happen. We do not Photoshop these we swear…. mostly because we are not any good at Photoshop.
Now go make some money! http://zaar.ly/1f0 or tell your crazy friend who works at the zoo!
Pocket and crew headed out to times square to promote the Android app release of Zaarly the only way they knew; By doing the robot. As the group danced people watched and wondered what we were doing this all for. This did not stop a few of the pedestrians from joining in.
