While in-person avenues still hold merit, only 1% of Americans regularly attend farmers’ markets. The other 99% want to find convenient and approachable options for purchasing Farm food - like online. Selling Farm products online has three key components. 

If you’re spending time writing emails to drive purchases to your Farm – then ideally, you want your customers to open them, right? The key to meeting (and surpassing!) email benchmarks for your industry and optimizing your email marketing strategy is to have people open and engage with your emails.

Email is a powerful tool for Farmers to drive sales and engage their customers. We selected the three most common use cases to help Farms implement Customer Journeys to drive more sales and spur more customer engagement. We designed and assembled a Welcome, Loyalty, and Re-Engage campaign for each participating Farmer.

Between spreading awareness about your products, staying top-of-mind to prompt consistent purchases, and being available on all channels – there are three tactics that work together (every time!) to help drive the quickest response from local buyers.

So, the question remains: should you choose Commercial Carriers or work with a Local Courier to deliver your Farms’ products?

One of the most common questions we often get asked when we engage with Farmers is, “why can’t I embed the online store into my existing website?” Our answer: Farms experience 4x the average eCommerce cart conversion rate with a stand-alone store. Here’s why.

We encourage Farmers to participate in local markets. In fact, our most successful Farmers implement tactics at markets that can help set your business up for success long-term.

Right now, Americans are looking for food security. With less food on the shelves and inflationary concerns, buyers are concerned with how they will feed themselves (and their families). What’s the solution? Local Farm Subscriptions.

Your Farm’s inventory is the gateway for most customers to purchase products and interact with your Farm. That’s why a simple, streamlined inventory will be the key to securing first-time purchases and generating recurring orders from loyal customers.

When Farmers take the time to reach and engage customers across multiple channels (web, mobile, social, email, and in-person), you’ll generate more frequent purchases and delight customers with the convenience of Subscription options. Check out these steps to spread the word about your Farm, generate sales, and capture more subscribers:
