Top tips for a great entry

Why should we pick you?

Perhaps you revamped a dying family business or took a chance moving your bricks and mortar online? Maybe you quit the 9 to 5 to become your own boss, or simply started with £10 in your pocket and a dream.

Think about the past and present, but also what the future holds...

How did it all start? When did you first take the plunge and start your own business or come up with your idea?
Who or what inspired you to go for it?
What has the journey been like? Were there any challenges or triumphs along the way?
Why eBay? What have you been able to achieve on the platform?
Was there a time you nearly threw in the towel? What made you carry on?
And when was your ‘lightbulb’ moment, when you knew you were on to something?
Importantly, tell us why you think you deserve to win?

Give us an idea of what it’s like to walk in your shoes. Send us photos of your products, your team, or your ideas.

Plus, remember to tell us what happens next. How could winning an eBay for Business Award help you to get there?

And, most of all, good luck!
