Partnerships and acquisitions[]

LivingSocial[]

In April 2011, LivingSocial announced a partnership with Next Jump that allows LivingSocial to present its daily offers to consumers in the Next Jump network.[3] On June 9, 2011, Next Jump introduced OO.com as the first product from this partnership. On this site, people enter their zipcode and are presented with a map showing LivingSocial deals, and get rewarded with points if they buy something.[4] As of 2021, the partnership effort is known as WOW Perks.

Flightcaster[]

In January 2011, the firm acquired a start-up called FlightCaster that helps people predict flight delays.[5]

Management style[]

Next Jump is featured as a case study in the 2016 book, "An Everyone Culture: Becoming a Deliberately Developmental Organization", as an example of a "deliberately developmental organization". Authors Kegan and Lahey say that Next Jump incorporates a number of management, coaching and teaching practices that are "organized around the simple but radical conviction that organizations will best prosper when they are more deeply aligned with people's strongest motive, which is to grow."[6]
