    • SoleTrader.com is the first scalable low cost DIFM ‘do it for me’ website builder dedicated to sole traders and small business owners globally. http://soletrader.com/video/

    • Over 2 years SoleTrader.com has built a globally unique automated software platform that builds websites for its customers in 15 minutes over the telephone (for only £219 UK - just 60p per day!) - allowing non web design trained telesales reps to build up to 14 websites per day (scale). The technology developed can be deployed in any language and territory. With an established 300 seat telesales office in Toronto available, the business can fulfil up to 4,000 websites per day in its current state on a totally variable cost basis.

    • By actually building and managing websites for its customers, SoleTrader.com instantly removes the hassle, time and confusion of a DIY ‘do it yourself’ platform (1&1, Go Daddy, Wix) or the expense of using a high street/local web developer – the only current options available to a small business owner.

    • Since its launch, SoleTrader.com has already established itself as the UK’s leading low cost website provider, partnering with over 25 commercial entities, including in 2016, a planned joint venture with B&Q (Kingfisher). During the finalisation of its development, the business has built over 3,000 websites for customers in the UK, which is now profitable as a separate business unit and began trading in North America in 2015 through a pilot test.

    • Commercial highlights include: £0.75M raised to date from seed investors, technically and financially proven and globally unique technology, proven customer journey with an established greater than 70% year on year customer retention rate. The business has already generated revenues of over £1M from customers whilst developing the technology during its development phase.
