Tell us about yourself?
I’m a passionate environmental entrepreneur who comes from a consultancy sales background. I’ve previously founded and exited an award-winning consumer champion online reverse auction platform that took over £230m in orders and saved UK consumers many millions of pounds.
If you could go back in time a year or two, what piece of advice would you give yourself?
Try to keep things simpler and address huge problems like addressing climate change through existing business models instead of trying to solve the issue yourself.
What problem does your business solve?
We make it easy to find and work with traditional artisans or computer enabled manufacturing technologists all under one roof and at competitive rates.
What is the inspiration behind your business?
We make it easy to find and work with traditional artisans or computer enabled manufacturing technologists all under one roof and at competitive rates.
What is your magic sauce?
I love technology, art and nature so created thus platform to help others to connect to each other better both from a business point of view and also hopefully spirituality.
What is the plan for the next 5 years? What do you want to achieve?
I would love to position this business to being able to support myself and my family into retirement and creating a significant impact towards addressing climate change.
What is the biggest challenge you’ve faced so far?
As we are a marketplace, getting enough artists to signup was a huge challenge. We now have well over 200 and that then helped to get customers to start commissioning them. I found we had to speak to artist better, listen to their problems and not make to many assumptions.
How do people get involved/buy into your vision?
We are always looking for all creative types to sign up with us to start taking commissions. It’s totally free to sign up and we just add our margin ontop of their rates.
People can signup from the website or contact us. We would also welcome commissions from all clients looking for private or public art commissions to furniture, shop displays and event stands using traditional artisan or computer enabled manufacturing skills.
We plant a minimum of 25 trees with every commission.
