Pitch for Textbooks To Bucks

Company / App Name: Textbooks To Bucks

Twitter – @Textbooks2Bucks

What does it do?

Encourages college students to skip the campus bookstore by buying and selling their textbooks directly to one another through our platform.

Why do we need it?

Textbooks prices have skyrocketed over 1,000% since 1970 and students can no longer afford to buy at the bookstore. Our business model trims down price by allowing students to set their price for their book.

Who is it for?

College students who buy textbooks.

What makes it stand out from the crowd?

We’re not the typical textbook reseller. We hold no inventory and act as a market/match-maker for buyers and sellers. Our business model is lean and taps into the coveted college market by empowering students.

What’s next?

We’re looking to grow our user base, and expect to be post revenue by the end of this year. After, we will look for funding (since we’ve bootstrapped til now) and continue doing great work.
