Additional Information

Our e-commerce ecosystem connects consumers with their local producers and suppliers of fresh food and other artisanal products.

We are looking to more effectively engage and communicate with new vendors, as well as grow our brand by improving our platform and services to drive high conversion and customer retention. Some questions that could be answered to help us do this include:

  • How do new vendors discover us?
  • What messaging works most effectively when reaching out to new vendors?
  • What can be improved in our outreach and marketing process to attract the types of businesses we’re looking for?
  • What multimedia materials can be created for the website to make it easier to understand the brand and our offering?
  • What can be improved in our on-boarding and support processes to retain businesses and ensure their success?
