Open Shed, managed by Lisa Fox, is a peer-to-peer rental site, where Australians come to rent each other’s personal belongings with confidence. The Open Shed vision is to create a secure and reliable community marketplace that helps Australians live a more resourceful and sustainable life.
So how did Lisa Fox and Open Shed use innovative thinking to create a successful small business?
A new eBook from the Australian Businesswomen’s Network profiles Lisa Fox, sharing how she has used online platforms to forge new paths in small business and how she thinks other businesses can leverage technology to their benefit.
“At Open Shed, we are using an online platform to connect people and help facilitate an offline meeting and exchange. Essentially, Open Shed enables people that need ‘stuff’, such as a drill for a once off DIY project, to search and find someone in their area that is happy to rent them a drill for just the time they need it,” explains Lisa.
Lisa also shares her favourite online technologies and what she considers to be the most important benefits of technology to small business.
