Purpose
Digital overload permeates our world. Bifold Market is charting a different course.
Bifold Market is a platform that enables writers to publish and distribute their short-form writing in a high-quality, tangible format called a bifold.
Physically, a bifold is a large, heavy-weight sheet of paper folded in half, with some combination of text and/or images. Issues of a given bifold are released periodically, like with magazines. Bifolds have a few distinguishing characteristics:
- Tangible – You can hold them in your hand, read them without using electricity, and display them on your bookshelf or coffee table when you’re done.
- Evergreen – The writing inside will be valuable for years in the future. The design quality and premium feel of the paper accordingly communicate “evergreen,” not “disposable.”
- Brief – You can easily read them beginning-to-end in one sitting.
Bifold Market aims to provide value to writers in four core areas:
- Design – Publish your bifold with a beautiful, polished design.
- Marketplace – Sell your bifold online simply, easily, and freely. No need to invest time and money in setting up an e-commerce store.
- Printing – Your bifold is printed on large sheets of high-quality paper (too large for typical home/office printers to handle).
- Distribution – Your bifold is promptly shipped to customers who purchase it on this website.
Revenue from bifold sales is split between the writer and Bifold Market.
