Zelospace enables brands to create authentic community engagement by organizing offline and online competitions in places where target audiences already gather, such as workplaces, gyms, studios, and events. Their three‑step process—enter the space, run a fun contest, and share results for social proof—drives natural conversation, user‑generated content, and measurable engagement that brands can amplify across their channels.

Problem
Brands struggle to create genuine engagement in physical locations, often relying on passive advertising that fails to motivate participation or generate shareable content. This limits the ability to build authentic communities and capture organic social proof from real-world interactions.
Solution
Zelospace provides a platform that transforms physical spaces such as workplaces, gyms, studios, and events into interactive competition hubs. Brands can launch challenges that participants enter and vote on both offline and online, turning everyday environments into venues for user‑generated content and conversation. All entries, votes, and comments are aggregated and displayed across digital channels, giving brands a stream of authentic media and social proof to amplify their marketing. The process is managed through three steps—identifying high‑traffic locations, running the competition on‑site, and surfacing results for ongoing engagement—enabling brands to build and nurture communities without relying on traditional ad spend.
Target Audience
Primary customers are consumer brands, retailers, and event organizers seeking to drive in‑person engagement and generate authentic user content, as well as universities and charities that want to mobilize participants through competitive experiences.
