Our Products
From our modern tech collection to boost your productivity, to our multi-functional office collection to elevate your hustle, to our comfort home collection to bring joy and convenience to your life, we exist to empower you to live extraordinarily.
The Problem
We found that most office set-ups and tech gadgets were:
- Primarily for the male-dominated corporate environment
- Not versatile, multi-functional, or innovative
- Most often, style doesn’t come with function (and comes with a hefty price tag)
The Opportunity
We started Multitasky because we identified a huge demand for (FUN)ctional lifestyle products, which includes computer and phone accessories, office supplies, home organization and more. (FUN)ctional essentially just means both fun and functional – we identified that currently only 2% of the products in the lifestyle market meets the (FUN)ctional definition. We are specifically targeting the western markets, which is a $7B opportunity by 2025. With the rise in social commerce, hashtag trends like #tiktokmademebuyit or #musthaves are driving up the demand for (FUN)ctional lifestyle products that improve productivity and happiness. However, unlike “Fast-Fashion,” no brand in the lifestyle industry has figured out how to launch “Fast-Lifestyle” based on social trends.
Our Ask
We are raising $10K to help with new product development - we want to start bringing more and better (FUN)ctional products to you!
