Tired of Social Media Rules Getting in the Way of Your Sales?
Vendor Resources
As a local baker, backyard gardener, or small farm, you pour your heart into creating delicious food and quality agricultural products. You want to share your passion and your goods with your community. But if you've tried selling on general social media marketplaces like Facebook Marketplace or even classified sites like Craigslist, you've probably hit a wall.
It's frustrating, right? One minute you're trying to sell your amazing homemade sourdough or your farm-fresh eggs, and the next, your post is flagged, removed, or worse—your account gets a warning!
The Problem with "Big Tech" Marketplaces
Why does this happen? General platforms have broad, often confusing rules that aren't designed for the nuances of local food and agriculture.
- Arbitrary Restrictions: Selling homemade bread, fresh eggs, or even live chickens can trigger automated systems that see these items as problematic, even when they're perfectly legal and desired by local buyers.
- Hidden Fees: While some general marketplaces might be free for local pickup, trying to expand your reach with shipping often comes with a percentage fee, eating into your hard-earned profits.
- Getting Lost in the Noise: Your delicious pie or pasture-raised pork chops are competing with furniture, used cars, and electronics. It's hard for your ideal customer—someone specifically looking for local food—to find you.
- Lack of Community: These platforms are transactional. There's little opportunity to connect with other local producers or build a genuine local food community.
