Calling all solopreneurs: Create your business manifesto and win £10,000 with Adobe

Aspiring solopreneurs and small business owners are being offered a life-changing opportunity to accelerate their entrepreneurial dreams, thanks to Adobe’s new Manifest-o Method.

This framework, designed by experienced business professionals and powered by Adobe Express, helps transform ideas into actionable business plans.

Available now on the Adobe website, the Manifest-o Method is launching with an exciting opportunity to accelerate one inspiring business idea into reality. The prize? £10,000, access to a network of like-minded individuals, and personal counsel from Steven Bartlett himself.

Until October 13th, aspiring entrepreneurs can enter a first-of-its-kind competition by submitting their own manifesto. Powered by Adobe Express, the Manifest-o Method comes in six templates for inspiration and gives you the option to create your own from scratch.

With Adobe Express, anyone can create professional assets for their small business – whether it’s social posts, videos, food menus, labels or presentation slides – without any prior design experience, and at no cost. This makes it the perfect tool for crafting your own manifesto.

In addition to the cash prize, the winner will also score an invitation to an exclusive event with entrepreneur and best-selling author Steven Bartlett.

The winner will also have a chance to join The Express Collective — an exclusive group of like-minded individuals who already use Adobe Express for their businesses, from food trucks to unique drinks, custom stationery and clothing.

Joining The Express Collective will provide the winner with access to community events, technical workshops, and mentors that will create opportunities for advancing any business idea through practical advice, free tools and networking.

According to research commissioned by Adobe, over half of Brits (52%) believe in the power of manifestation to achieve their dreams, with younger generations leading this trend.

While some may manifest love, travel or a shiny new car – 60% of those surveyed revealed that they manifested becoming business owners, demonstrating the growing importance of confidence and visualisation to turn dreams into reality. And it’s clear manifestation is far from just wishful thinking.

Truly, if you can believe it, you can achieve it, right?

What is manifestation?

To ‘manifest’ is to bring something into reality using your thoughts and actions to create the life you’ve always dreamed of. While the concept isn’t new, recent research highlights how today’s business owners are harnessing this power to stay focused on their goals.

Successful entrepreneurs understand the value of creating a manifesto – according to the research, 61% of solopreneurs believe their business would benefit from a clear manifesto outlining their intentions and goals.

Furthermore, 53% of investors now look for a clear manifesto in business proposals, while 73% believe a manifesto has a greater impact on long-term success than a traditional business plan.

Ready to enter this life-changing competition?

Existing and aspiring solopreneurs and small business owners are called upon to create their own manifestos using Adobe Express, the quick and easy create-anything app, and submit them via a dedicated website at submityourmanifesto.co.uk.

The grand prize winner will get the £10,000, with runner-up prizes including Adobe Express Premium subscriptions. These subscriptions offer an even wider range of templates for inspiration, customisation options, collaboration features, access to a library of high-quality stock photos, and much more.
