Empowering Artisans through community and commerce.
Empowering Artisans through community and commerce.

Our Mission…

In the "real world" commerce happens both at corporate malls and public marketplaces. This balance is a vital part of our physical economy giving people the option to purchase manufactured items from large corporations or choose to support local makers at markets and fairs.

Unfortunately, as more shopping happens online the ability to support local makers is being threatened. Corporate marketplaces (such as Amazon, Etsy, Ebay, etc.) have become an expensive toll booth to the internet making it difficult for makers to survive in the online world. It's no surprise that Wall Street owned platforms focus solely on profits to shareholders which creates a hostile environment for handmade sellers. 

At goimagine we believe the internet is an extension of the physical world and deserves an affordable and inclusive platform for handmade sellers. Just like farmers' markets and street fairs in your hometown, artisans deserve to have a socially responsible space to sell online. Let's not forget the internet was built with public funding and it's only right that there are public spaces on the internet for commerce to take place.

Our community-driven platform is focused on community and economic development to support creators building their online business. Our mission is to strengthen the handmade community, promote entrepreneurship for artisans, provide online business education, and offer an affordable platform for selling handmade goods.






5 Reasons Makers & Artists are Joining goimagine

1. A Truly Handmade Marketplace

Join thousands of makers & artists working together to build a better marketplace for handmade.

goimagine is dedicated to showcasing handmade goods from sellers who truly love the art of making something with their hands. Building a new handmade marketplace won't be easy, but the world is ready for a platform that truly celebrates the beauty of handcrafted products.

2. Custom Maker Websites

As a handmade seller, we understand it's a challenge to manage multiple platforms while building and promoting your brand. That's why with MOSAIC by goimagine, you get both: your own private shop to promote your business while also having your inventory be part of a growing handmade marketplace at goimagine. All for $10 per month!

MOSAIC by goimagine gives makers the independence of a private website with the power of a marketplace. 

3. Every Purchase Helps a Child in Need

Yep, you heard that right; goimagine is donating 2% of every purchase to charities focused on helping children in need.

Makers continue to earn their income, but a portion of every transaction will be donated to help children in need! We believe that by creating a handmade marketplace that donates 2% of every purchase, there's an opportunity to transform the online economy into an engine for social good.

4. A Handmade Community

Being a 'solopreneur' can be a lonely experience. You must do everything yourself, spend hours working alone on your craft, and make business decisions in a vacuum. This feeling only worsens when you are on platforms among a sea of other people full of scams and negativity. That's why goimagine launched a social app specifically for Makers & Artists.

Maker Circle is a social network connecting makers and artists. Join thousands of handmade artists throughout the United States to collaborate, learn, grow, and socialize in a safe and welcoming space.

5. Community Voice

Every Wednesday our founder, Jon Lincoln, goes live with the community to answer questions, provide company updates and be available to our community to ensure people are being heard.

Along with business transparency, we are committed to ensuring that goimagine remains handmade only. This is why we have put together a Handmade Integrity Team run by our maker community to assist in defining and enforcing our handmade ethos.
