In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Erin Holt, Gumtree’s Head of Partnerships. Gumtree now goes beyond household items and includes cars, jobs, real estate and services. There are now over 7.8m Australians using Gumtree - or gummies, as they affectionately known and Add to Cart wanted to get an update on Gumtree, understand more about Gummies and explore how eCommerce brands might be able to access this huge audience. In this conversation we learn more about the primary Gumtree customer - promisingly named the super intender. We also dive into how Gumtree created a book with kids star and viral video sensation, Jimmy Rees. And stay until the end to hear how Erin’s own Gumtree pick up experience ended up with her whole family being invited into a stranger’s first birthday party.
