Maximise potential.

Everybody wants to make money but making a decision where to invest your money is a risky business. So why chose us? What are your alternatives? It's relatively easy to set up a drop shipping business but there's a lot of competition. Did you know with Shopify for example only the top 10% make profits over 20%, the other 90% do not*. An online franchise can be expensive with no guarantee of success. Not only are we here to reduce that risk but we also aim to give you a concept where you can maximise it's potential. All our concepts are monetised and scalable and our payment on results set up means you limit your risk with a low cost Start Up pack, a recommended developer and ongoing support from funding, promotion to expansion and growth.

The Idea Bridge. Make the right choice low risk start, payment on results

Don't get me wrong an idea bridge solution might not be the best option for everyone.
According to startups.co.uk a service based business has a 60-70% chance of surviving in the the first year as opposed to 10-30% for drop shipping. Our ideas are primarily service based across all sectors and within niche markets but if you've a specific product to sell although we can help sell it, it may not be suitable for theideabridge. We've included a cost comparison of options vs ideabridge solutions for you to make up your own mind.

Making the right choice.

Picture Books from a home hobby to a multi income stream business

Although ideabridge isn't ready to roll, we have already started projects from friends and family to test their reaction. One of these picture-books turns a hobby into a multi income stream business. From custom products, high end retail, online courses and product sales to the lucrative 'art' market and beyond.

Don't take our word for it.

The Idea Bridge. Long term benefits, mutual advantages

From our my own experience a web development company will look to make the most money for themselves not necessarily the best deal for you. Re-using their existing code to fit square pegs in round holes. In our case my vision is to have a nexus of code we all share to keep development costs down and also have an optional sharing of client contacts (we'll never create competitor businesses) to help each business grow and a discount on services to other ideabridge businesses. 

Sharing the benefits.
