Venture Background

AutoMaximizer, Inc. was founded by Eric Melin in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 2018. It was incubated by Erics incubator The Market Accelerator whereupon Eric began building some initial seed funding, launched early tech prototypes as a part-time venture and generated early commercial engagement. The venture was put on hold for 2 years of COVID, then restarted in earnest when a refreshed BOA was established and tasked with recruiting an executive team. After a CEO search, Mark Shores joined in 2024 as CEO with Eric Melin refocused as CTO and co-founder. Executive Bios pasted below. A venture presentation with profiles of all current Advisors, is available on: .

The Opportunity

E-Commerce is now a $20+ trillion market and growing rapidly. AutoMaximizer is disrupting the Aftermarket Automotive Industry in the same way Carvana and True Car have Disrupted the Secondary Automobile markets as ecommerce/tech/saas/app focused plays. Over 90% of Car Buyers now use the Internet during the car buying process (Craigslist, eBay, AutoTrader, etc.) and there's a growing trend to Customize automobiles (new and used) with aftermarket add-ons from AutoZone, PepBoys, Amazon/eBay, etc. However, when given an Opportunity, 80% of New & Used Car buyers pay extra for Customizations at-the-time-of-the-purchase-decision. AutoMaximizer is dedicated to enabling the entire automobile to be Ultra-Customized to meet drivers' specific unique lifestyle needs. We will have over 100,000 SKUs with a goal of over 6 million visitors to our website per month. Global trends with Electric Vehicles has opened up new driver needs and accelerated interest in the DIY / home-based Customization market. While Carvana and TrueCar recently launched IPOs, there is no dominant player that has emerged in accessories. Our business model is not one website or portal, but rather many different B2C revenue streams, from sales channels Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, Google, Facebook, Walmart, various mobile apps, iOS, Android, etc. Additionally, we plan to build revenue streams with subscriptions from manufacturers/suppliers that list their products on our automotive specialized site and connect with the large installer market of both auto dealers, installers, and true customizers. The team has extensive experience building profitable business ventures with backgrounds in retail, IP law, corporate law, IT, strategy, investment banking, startups, search engine marketing, and internet advertising. Our Advisory Board search is focused on expanding our skillsets and securing additional angel round funding.
