Hi, we are Judith und Stephanie, two German entrepreneurs living in Portugal for quite a while now.
Since 2010 after searching for a cool business idea with a secure future, we have been working very hard to develop a complete car-sharing concept for the Portuguese market, including website programming, marketing plans etc. A crucial step of these upfront activities was to invest in a professional market research.The very positive result of this study encouraged us to take the decision to realize Boleiaponto.com on the Portuguese market.
Being thus determined to go ahead, we have spoken to many banks and a lot of potential investors, receiving always the same reply : Your business plan is looking very good, the idea in general sounds great as well, but unfortunately your business is to small ( investors ) and your start-up costs are to high- due to the creation of the extremely sophisticated web-portal ( banks ).
So this is why we are asking for your support now, as we are completely convinced of having arrived at the very best moment to a country suffering really hard from the austerity measures of the government : Our project is helping people to save money and to contribute to protect the environment by reducing CO2 emissions.
Our project
By creating Boleiaponto.com we are aiming to offer a professional car-sharing service that includes the whole Portuguese country. Boleiaponto.com stands for a perfect 24 hours service that is customer oriented, personalized and easy to book on our web-portal. As the result of our recent market research has shown us, 90 % of the Portuguese people between 18 and 80 are very interested in our carsharing service. That is to say we couldn’t have chosen a better time to start our campaign !
Please support our social and ecofriendly project for Portugal!
With every 26$ you fund you’ll get one native tree planted in Portugal!
Aiming for the support of the ‘very crowd’ in Portugal, as well as abroad we have thought about a smart, modern but still personal solution according to the perks we offer to those supporting Boleiaponto.com .Thousands of hectares of trees are burnt down by forest fires every summer in Portugal! You can join in automatically to help the faithfull Portuguese association PlantarUmaÁrvore ( Plant A Tree ) fulfill its reforestation mission:
With every 26$ you fund you’ll get one native tree planted in Portugal!
If we don't achieve the total funding amount, we will donate the received money to the Portuguese association PlantarUmaÁrvore ( Plant a Tree ) after having covered our costs for this funding campaign.
Thanks a lot for supporting Boleiaponto.com !
Judith & Stephanie
