Andy Jacob saw an opportunity for a category killer in the direct to consumer home improvement liquidation space in 2015. Jacob saw the reverse logistics space as an open corridor by catering to very powerful segmented client channels and marketing channels. Jacob developed the SaleSumo concept into a new category called the warehouse liquidation shopping experience. Jacob penciled out the liquidation shopping concept in January of 2015 and thirty days later, set out to prove the model. Jacob rented a small, out of the way, 11,000 square foot warehouse, made the necessary investments, and dove in daily for 5 years innovating sales productivity, merchandising, and segmenting his customer buying habits, before moving the warehouse liquidation concept store into its larger facility in November of 2016. Now, SaleSumo has become a household name in the Phoenix metropolitan area with over 125,000 square feet of space, providing hundreds of thousands of items to their customers. Jacob, is known to his customers by his nickname "Big Bob" (a salute to Jacob's Father, Robert Jacob), and SaleSumo specializes saving its ever growing customer base between 30-70% off of retail pricing with their now-legendary bundle deals.
