Hello everyone! We're a black owned marketplace where you conveniently shop from Black Businesses directly, all in one place. A follow from you would really mean a lot. If you're a Black Business please sign up; zero transaction fees, 100% free, you keep 100% of what you make.
This is blowing up oh my God. Please message my personal account @yeIiyan if you want help setting up your store on the site, I'll upload your entire store for you without you lifting a finger. If you have any questions please feel free to ask in @miiriya_miiriya's inbox as well
I'm also currently building an app to make everything even easier and more convenient. It should be done less than 2 months.
Update: The app up will be up in less than 2 weeks
I want to add, because I want to make sure everyone knows where my goals lay. I don't make a dime from the website. I pay out of pocket for everything, and even pay the PayPal and Credit card fees for the vendors out of pocket so they get 100% of their earnings.
I dont have any "Jeff besos millionaire/billionaire" goals. My goals are that of a socialist. I do not like capitalism, but we are here. My goal is to refocus the money within our communities to help us help each other.
You can ask each and every vendor on the site, if they made $50, $50 hit their account, 0 hit mine. The transaction fees are $0, I take 0% percentage. I pay their credit card /PayPal fees with my own personal paycheck from my own work.
Personal goals of mine is to refocus our money to fixing neighborhoods without gentrification, help build black businesses to give jobs within the community/reduce unemployment community funds for education, building shelters and training homeless and providing them with jobs--
-free community meals/fridges with meals at physical stores, and more. In the future the businesses on the site will have a non-obligatory option to give a small percentage of their earnings to fund these/and the public can participate in those funds as well.
It seems like impossible tasks and dreams to a lot of people but I'll shoot for the stars on this one. When I have something in mind & I put it into action it usually happens, and I got tired of not seeing these ideas implemented which is why I created this to see where it can go
Whether or not you believe we'll attain any of these, I just wanted everyone to know who I am as a person & where my mind is. I want us to reach a level of not begging anyone for the changes we want in our community, and only getting crumbs through our protests that cost lives.
The vendors woke up extremely happy this morning. So many new sales, you guys are really showing out. We have so many new followers, thank you so much for the support it means a lot. Let's keep going and get concrete change in the community. There are many new vendors!
Update: App will be out in less than a week.
Currently working on adding worldwide currencies to the site and expand to international countries so black vendors from all over the world can join, so the website can be used to sell within their own countries/every country can start participating in buying black. We move
10,000 follows! Thank you everyone, I'll keep working as hard as I can. I'm trying to put us in a position where when we post a business, it reaches enough people that that business can thrive. I really appreciate all the follows. Let's keep doing our best and continue improving.
