Way Basics has been named a regional semifinalist in the Inc. Magazine and Alibaba.com Newpreneur of the year contest and they can use your support!

Alibaba.com and Inc. Magazine are seeking out the brightest and most promising companies across America to give their “elevator pitch” to a panel of some of the brightest business minds in the country in order to see who will be crowned the first-ever Newpreneur (new entrepreneur) of the year! Out of over a thousand entries, Way Basics is among 13 remaining companies.

This round is where things start to heat up, because the finalists will be decided by you! Voting is super easy, and can be done by following this link www.waybasics.com/vote (you don’t have to register or make an account, just select Way Basics and click submit!)

We think they have a pretty good shot of winning and want to tell the world about Way Basics and the possibilities available with their eco-friendly zBoards.  Just think about a future where recycled material can replace old, wasteful, outdated, and plain ugly material. Couches, tables, chairs, pallets, sheet rock, and literally any furniture piece can integrate the zBoard into its design. Thank you in advance for your vote and support, their future is in your hands!
