Why Bizbie?

Everything in your community. In one app.

Bizbie puts the goods, services and venues around you in one place. Find a listing, buy it in the app, then decide if you'd recommend it. Here's how each part works.

Finding it

Three ways to find it. All of them fast.

Bizbie shows listings, not profiles. You see the item, the price and how far away it is before you ever open a business page.

Your community onlyClosest firstNot for you? Hide it.Sold out says so
1

Browse

Bizbie opens on Browse. Goods, Services and Venues each have a tab, sorted into categories, with Charities and Events coming soon. Expand one, tap what you want, and you're looking at listings.

Search

Search for the thing, not the business. Type "large dog grooming" and you only see groomers who take big dogs, closest first. No calling around to find out they won’t take your shepherd. Sponsored ads never change your results.

3

Map

Flip any search or category to the map to see where each listing is. What you see depends on where you open it. Open it from a whole category and you'll see every listing in it. Open it from one bucket, like Eggs, and you'll see just those.

Buying it

Buy it right in the app.

Check out inside Bizbie. No jumping to another website, and no new account for every shop. At launch, you pick up your order in person from the business. Shipping and delivery come later, for businesses that offer them.

A small service fee is added at checkout, and you see it before you pay. Bizbie takes nothing from the business's sale.

Recommending it

Only customers can recommend.

Every recommendation on Bizbie comes from someone who bought that listing through the app. No purchase, no recommendation.

1

You buy it.

Pick it up, use it, enjoy it.

2

Bizbie asks one question.

"Would you recommend this to your friends?" Yes or no. No stars.

3

Yes? Share it.

Leave a comment on the listing, or add photos and share it on your profile, linked to the listing you bought.

4

No? Help them improve.

Bizbie asks, “Sorry it wasn’t right. How can Sunny Ridge Poultry improve Farm Fresh Brown Eggs?” Your answer goes straight to the owner, so it’s feedback they can act on. Sharing it publicly is still your choice.

One purchase, one recommendation.

Each purchase unlocks one recommendation. No repeats, no bots.

It belongs to the listing.

Recommendations attach to the item you bought, not the whole business. A great sourdough doesn't vouch for the cake.

"No recommendations yet"

That only means no one has bought it through Bizbie yet.

Your community

See what your community recommends.

Ask, and get answers you can tap

Post "Can anyone recommend…?" Every reply has to tag a listing the person bought there. Tap it and you're on the listing.

Connect with people you know

Connections are two-way. You only see someone's activity in your Connections feed if you both said yes.

Discover what's happening

The Discover feed shows public posts, notices and recommendations from across your community.

For businesses

Get found for exactly what you sell.

List each product, service, space or event on its own. When someone searches for it, your listing shows up, not a page they have to dig through.

1

Create a free profile.

Add your details, hours and a "Meet the Owner" story.

2

Your BizRep verifies you.

A BizRep checks your ID and business documents, then unlocks your listings.

3

List what you sell, offer or host.

Listings are free. Each one shows up in browse, search and the map.

4

Upgrade to sell in the app.

Turn on checkout, messaging and recommendations.

For businesses

What you get.

100% of your sales

Bizbie doesn't take a cut. Payments go to you through your own Stripe account.

Customers create your content

Recommendations show up on your listings and on your customers' profiles.

Feedback you can act on

When a customer wouldn’t recommend a listing, Bizbie asks how you could improve it. You hear it first, and you decide what to do with it.

Nudges

On a free profile, shoppers can nudge you when they want to buy. You'll know a buyer is waiting.

BizReps

Every business has a BizRep.

BizReps are people in your community. They verify each business, help owners set up their listings, and stay their go-to person after launch.

If a profile goes quiet for 14 days, its BizRep checks in. So you won't drive across town to a business that closed months ago.

Verified before listingNo listing goes live until a BizRep has checked the business.
Always someone to callEvery profile is assigned to a BizRep in its community.
