I love this idea but I think the people I want to give it to would kill me for gifting them a project. Of course, I'm doing it anyway.
We’re launching Gift A Business to help people empower the aspiring entrepreneurs in their life. People often daydream about starting a business but their fears hold them back. Instead, we want your help finding these potential entrepreneurs who need an extra push towards their big life dream. All businesses are pre-built so people can start running their business on day one (no procrastination required).
Each Gift A Business purchase will include a Starter Pack with:
- Five free ebooks
- A Business Certificate that you can fill in with their name, business name, and date
- A printable holiday card
- A one-month Shopify credit
This is the first time we’re running Gift A Business on Exchange Marketplace, so we’re looking for feedback on how we can improve, other ideas of what to include in the Starter Kit to ensure long-term success, or answer any questions you may have!
Thanks for checking it out! 🎁
@lizzie_macneill throw in a prefilled Lean-Canvas to set the new business up for continued success whether the entrepreneur chooses to DIY their Marketing or hire out.
@lizzie_macneill @happy2smile247 Love the idea Stephanie! Thanks for sharing!
@lizzie_macneill @nicole_ferreira anytime! Walking through a business canvas is a great way for a business owner to stay focused and flex with the demands of growing a business though every phase.
Fantastic opportunity for people to consider buying someone a gift that keeps on giving. An excellent choice for a long-term value. And buying a business has never been easier!
So glad for the team that worked tirelessly around the clock to have this done before one of the busiest times of the year. Also, right on time to make someone's Christmas Morning much more delightful.
Congratulations on the release!
@kajanth_nithy Would it be possible to sell a non Shopify based business here? For example a business built in Squarespace with Booqable for the marketplace. I’m selling www.fweels.com a peer 2 peer car hire marketplace and road trip platfom + clickable prototype app for iOS and Android.
I tried Flippa but it’s $5,000 max and they won’t consider prototype apps or bundling website and apps together. Let me know if you can help.
@ayanah_ramos While some people buy clothes for others during the holiday season. We're now allowing people on Shopify's Exchange to Gift A Business. On the landing page, you'll find curated stores starting at $50 that you can give to someone as a gift for Christmas, their birthday, an anniversary, or any other special occasion. Everyone knows that one aspiring entrepreneur in their life who always talks about wanting to own a business, this option helps you give them that extra push by showing your support.
@joe_large Hey Joe, thanks exactly who we had in mind when coming up with this idea. We want to make it easy for parents to support their children's goals in life. Exchange is set up to process this transaction whereas Flippa currently isn't.
Incredible article distributed here by you. I have long been eager to adapt new things in relation to this topic, and there is no doubt that I have adapted new things today. shops for sale
