Use Cases	Building Automation & Control Machine to Machine Payments
Challenge	BLACEXPO, an ecommerce marketplace app, was created to facilitate community transactions around the world. The founder, Kamiro Willis, aimed to provide a platform for independent businesses and entrepreneurs to sell their products and services. However, Willis faced the challenge of creating an app without having to study coding for months or years. He needed a solution that would allow him to build BLACEXPO in a timely manner with all the features he envisioned. The app was intended to be a two-sided platform, with sellers gaining access to tools such as direct messaging chat from buyers, index page marketing, sales/shipping monitor, URL link, and drop shipping products from suppliers. On the other hand, buyers would be able to shop with local, new brands while communicating directly with each business. Read More

They gain access to tools such as direct messaging chat from buyers, index page marketing, sales/shipping monitor, URL link, and drop shipping products from suppliers. This allows them to create financial freedom. On the other hand, buyers can shop with local, new brands while communicating directly with each business. They can interact and purchase from local brands, thereby supporting small businesses and individual entrepreneurs. Read More
Solution	Willis discovered Bubble, a leader in the no-code movement, which offered a powerful point-and-click web editor and cloud hosting platform. This allowed him to build fully customizable web applications and workflows, ranging from simple prototypes to complex marketplaces, SaaS products, and more. With Bubble's all-around software building capabilities, Willis was able to use his creativity skills to build a start-up company like the multi-million dollar companies in Silicon Valley. Bubble allowed Willis to dream big and offer opportunity and inspiration to everyone who felt defeated by Big Tech. The team at BLACEXPO is constantly adding new features to simplify the buyers and sellers experience, such as adding swiping functionality to view the next items on mobile view. Soon, the sellers will have the ability to upload their entire catalog like Shopify. Read More Log in to view content
