“We’re super-serving shareable, shoppable entertainment,” explains Potkin, co-founder, NOW//with. “Celebrities are genuinely sharing their lifestyle and favorite products with users. This has also created an immediate opportunity and ‘Call to Action’ for talent to shine a light on smaller direct-to-consumer brands they have discovered that need a lifeline in these trying times.”

Co-founder Winnaman added, “Almost overnight we’ve seen the world shift behavior and shopping as we’ve known it has forever changed. How many times did we all wish we could shop Sex in the City and how many hours did we waste hunting down that dress or that shoe? NOW//with brings it all together in one seamless shoppable experience. WATCH, LOVE, SHOP and SHARE, it’s that easy!”
