Project Synopsis: Challenge/Opportunity
The hunting and outdoor recreation industry's evolution trail the overall business market by at least 10 years. Companies such as GoHunt and OnX are starting to bring the industry up to speed in some respect, however in other parts of the industry the LAG IS REAL! The Hunting and Outdoor Recreation Industry is prime for a Social Commerce Marketplace. No more getting scammed on Craigslist, Use Facebook. You'll most likely break one of their rules and get booted, and, no one uses eBay, so we are making a place for us, MANNA. 
Project Synopsis: Activities/Actions Required
Manna is the first Social Commerce Marketplace specifically for the Hunting, Fishing, and Outdoor Recreation community. Users can buy and sell used and new gear to a passionate adventure-seeking audience, in a 100% secure transaction, all through our Mobile App Based Platform. 
 
  • Check out reviews on products, sellers, and buyers. 
  • Find what you need! 
  • Users can now actually afford top-of-the-line gear
  • Sellers no longer have to sweat getting paid 
  • Buyers no longer have to hope they receive their purchase
Project Synopsis: Expected Results
Let's make a place just for us that is simple, foolproof and secure, we can gear up for the rut in September, the bass run in October, the Southern migration in November and climb that 14er in July.
