    DotMe Secures USD 1.25M Valuation with USD 150K Backing from Ex-Jimmy's Cofounder


    Finance Outlook India Team | Tuesday, 04 March 2025

    DotMe, the leading link-in-bio platform for creators, has raised $150,000 in funding, propelling its valuation to $1.25 million. The investment round was led by strategic investor and ex-founder of Jimmy Cocktails, Mirza L. Baig, whose expertise in brand-building and business incubation will play a pivotal role in DotMe’s growth trajectory.

    With over 100,000 unique monthly users, DotMe has evolved beyond a tool; it’s now a cultural hub. From top collectives like Sunburn Union to breakout creators like Justin Joy (Hyperfitx), DJs like Almost Human, and popular venues like FLO and Chin Lungs, the platform has become the go-to destination for those shaping audience engagement. The newly raised capital will enable DotMe to enhance its platform, simplify monetization, and strengthen connections between creators and brands.

    This investment represents a strategic alignment for DotMe. “The creator economy is evolving rapidly, and DotMe is at the forefront of this transformation,” said Mirza. “They’re not just developing tools; they’re shaping the future of how creators and brands connect.”

    A seasoned industry leader with 28 years of experience in building and scaling global brands, Baig brings a wealth of expertise to the table. As the ex-cofounder and former CMO of Jimmy’s Cocktails, he drove 300% year-on-year growth. He also leads Hammerhead Global, an award-winning experiential marketing firm, and his deep connections in the creator ecosystem further strengthen DotMe’s trajectory. With his backing, DotMe is not just positioned for growth—it is set to lead.

    DotMe, under the dynamic leadership of Harsh Vijaykumar, Founder, and CEO, and his visionary co-founders Ajay Ghanti, Pranay Jain, and Akshay ND, is poised to dramatically reshape the link-in-bio landscape for the burgeoning creator economy. The team's prior achievement in establishing Brandemic, a leading creative and tech transformation agency, demonstrates their ability to innovate and execute at a high level.  “The creator economy is evolving beyond content into a powerful ecosystem of commerce and community. At DotMe, we’re building the infrastructure that helps creators not only showcase their work but also monetize effectively and forge stronger connections with their audiences.” said Harsh. “With Mirza’s strategic backing and industry expertise, we are poised to scale rapidly, introduce innovative features, and transform how creators and brands collaborate in the digital space.”  

    The creator economy is witnessing unprecedented growth, with the global market projected to expand from $127.65 billion in 2023 to $528.39 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 22.5%. In India alone, the digital content creation market is expected to reach $4.40 billion by 2030, driven by a rapidly growing community of over 100 million creators.

    As more creators look for streamlined ways to monetize and engage their audiences, platforms like DotMe are becoming essential tools for enabling these connections. With fresh funding and strategic backing, DotMe is well-positioned to capitalize on this momentum and redefine how creators and brands collaborate in the evolving digital landscape.
