We here at Payoneer always dare to dream big and encourage our customers who aim for entrepreneurial success to do the same.
So, this past holiday season we decided to set our customers a challenge – the “Dream Big Holiday Challenge”. What’s the challenge? Sellers all around the world were encouraged to achieve their personal goal in holiday sales for 2019 in order to receive a scratchcard from Payoneer with a prize of up to $1,000!
As our global community of inspiring individuals continues to grow, we always strive to celebrate their success and achievements. That said, we wanted to give a special mention to some of our top winners and share their exciting stories from this past year as well as their business plans for 2020.
Congrats to all the winners!
Manoj Singh, India (Narmada Enterprises)
At Narmada Enterprises, we manufacture an array of wooden packaging solutions and sell to industries of need. We began selling on Amazon in February of last year and we really aimed to sell 5,000 products by the end of the year. In fact, we did it in just 6 months! We worked hard on developing new products by constantly researching the latest trends in the market, defining our targets and implementing them into our business.As for 2020, we’re working on developing new products as well as entering into new markets and countries as part of an expansion plan. As for a success tip – come what may and never give up!
Andrii Pashchuk, Ukraine
2019 has been a huge success for me and my company. Earlier last year I set myself a goal to reach $800K in sales (which is still ongoing). At the time this goal was a bit unrealistic, and honestly, I didn’t have the resources to achieve it, but I took the risk and I’m half way there!
As for 2020, I’d like to increase turnover by 30-40%, maybe even by 50%! I’d also really like to hire new employees that way I can manage a full-fledged team. In addition, I’d like to add more products on Amazon and last but not least, I’d really like to be a home owner.
I’m very grateful to Payoneer for their generous prize and looking forward to more competitions in the future!
Sheila MacFeeters, United Kingdom
“Our main highlight of 2019 was finding new premises in Castle Douglas, Scotland. We were originally located in Warrington, England and had been searching for newer and larger premises for the past two years. This past June, we moved all of our stock and now our new office is more spacious, giving us the confidence to start selling internationally.
At the heart of this expansion has been the opportunity to open a bank account with Payoneer. We now have a bank account which lets us accept payments in many different currencies. Payoneer made managing all our finances from Australia to Canada and the UK, plus many other countries, easy and very straightforward.
As for 2020, we will soon be attending trade shows which is something we do each year and gives us inspiration and new ideas. We’re also planning to introduce some completely new products, so make sure you look out for them as they’ll be available to order starting the end of February.”
Sung Yil Kim, South Korea (Millim)
Our journey began in 2011 when we decided to open a B2C eCommerce agency and focus on helping sellers promote and sell their products. One of our biggest highlights from the past year was changing our business model to be more Amazon friendly, giving us a greater opportunity to promote our products more effectively.
In 2020, we’d like to create more long-term goals for increasing revenue and in addition, expand our products.
