French Zlio lets anyone set up an online shop in 5 minutes. Shop owners don't actually need to have anything to sell. They don't have to worry about stock or shipping, either, since orders are fulfilled by large online retailers like Amazon.com, eBay and Buy.com. This leaves Zlio shopkeepers free to focus on curation (selecting an appealing array of products) and promotion.
Zlio was founded in France in November 2005 as a recommendation service, letting users recommend favourite products to their friends and family in exchange for small commissions. Which is comparable to other social affiliate schemes like FavoriteThingz and MyPickList.com, which were featured in trendwatching.com's briefing on Generation Cash.
