Why enter?
Many of our past winners almost didn't hit submit, and it changed their lives. They reported that winning:
- Significantly boosted their impressions, followers, and sales.
- Provided invaluable media exposure and credibility.
- Opened doors to exclusive networking opportunities and eBay events.
Top tips to craft a winning entry
Applying takes just 10 to 15 minutes, but a little preparation goes a long way:
- Tell your authentic story: Share your spark, your milestones and how you tackled hurdles along the way.
- Bring the numbers: Don't be shy! Highlight your achievements and show us what you've accomplished.
- Lights, camera, action: A short video (up to 3 minutes) introducing yourself is recommended. Don't worry about making it fancy, if you're camera-shy, you can even use AI tools to help!
- Draft it first: The application form cannot save your progress mid-way. We highly recommend typing your answers into a separate document first, then copying them over when you're ready.
The countdown is on!
