Pixiboard: A Safer, Better Way to Sell Your Stuff

Wow.  It has been some time since we put our fingers to the keyboard and popped out a blog.  Much has happened since then.  We’ve marched the streets of Berkeley, talking up Pixiboard^TM and visiting local businesses.  We ran an Enter to Win contest, passing out free cookies, burritos, Visa cards, and an iPad Mini.  We continue to update the platform, making navigation easier and the purchase process even more streamlined.  People are signing up, connecting, and sharing items.


The mission we started out to fulfill remains the same - sharing, buying, and selling your stuff should not be a complicated or scary experience.  With Pixiboard^TM, we want to create a safer, easier, more secure place to sell the stuff you want and find the stuff you need.  And we think we have it.  Pixiboard^TM provides a seamless shopping experience where everything can be done in three steps or less.

See it. Snap it. Sell it.

First, we start with the PICTURE.  The picture puts the “pixi” in Pixiboard^TM.  Instead of wading through walls of text, people browse images.  You can add up to fifteen pictures per post so people can really see what they are going to buy.  A picture is worth a thousand words and Pixiboard™ uses the power of the image to connect people with products and services.

Safe. Local. Commerce.

Second, we focus on keeping you SAFE.  Pixiboard^TM is a self-contained, all-encompassing offering.  When you message someone, you do it within platform, through PixiChat^TM, without giving your e-mail out to strangers.  Buyers and sellers can ask each other questions, vet items, and communicate without trading personal information.  You don’t have to open yourself up to find out more information on that dresser.

No cash. No fears. No worries.

Third, we keep your money SECURE.  With PixiPay^TM, the integrated payment system within Pixiboard^TM, the buyer and seller make a cashless transaction.  No one has to meet a stranger in a strange place with a large sum of cash in their pocket.  As a buyer, you do not provide your credit card number to the seller.  Just as important, as a seller, when the payment is made, the cash is yours – there is no awkward middle man from where you have to extract your money.

Pixiboard™ is a visual, safer, and simpler way to buy and sell your stuff.  No more wondering what items look like.  No more exposing your e-mail to strangers.  No more sketchy meet-ups.  No more fumbling to make change.  On Pixiboard™, it is free to post and everything can be done in three steps or less.

We are confident that you will find Pixiboard™ a more enjoyable, easier-to-use, more comfortable experience.  We believe that in the sharing economy you can get something in return besides someone’s magical currency.  So get out there and sell the stuff you want and find the stuff you need.  Connect.  Share.  Magic.^TM
