The problem

Car buying can be intimidating. One Woman Owner set out to change that with a marketplace designed specifically for women: a safe, reliable place to buy, sell, value and finance a car.

Firstof its kind

There was no female-focused car marketplace to point to, so the trust it promised had to be built into the product itself, not borrowed from a category that already existed.

B2B + B2Ctwo sides

It had to serve buyers and dealers at once, each needing very different tools, without feeling like two products bolted together.

Trustto grow on

The founder had been let down by developers before. This time it had to be a real product, built to a standard they could scale, on time and on budget.

Solution design

We designed and built the marketplace on WordPress, with a customised theme and bespoke functionality, from buyer tools to a full dealer portal.
