Sound familiar?
Marketing is the job that slips when your shop gets busy. If any of these ring a bell, the team was built for you.
You are serving customers all day, so marketing happens late at night, when you have the least energy for it.
New stock lands and lovely things sit on the shelf because not enough people know they are in.
You are competing with the chains and the big online sellers, and they have whole teams for this.
You have a few hundred followers but they rarely turn into people actually coming in to buy.
Made-up example
A week at Magpie and Moss.
Magpie and Moss is a made-up gift and plant shop. This is the kind of week the team drafts for independent shops, every post waiting for your yes. Tap Approve to try it. Nothing here is sent anywhere.
- There is no auto-approve: a post nobody approved simply waits.
- Edit it after approving and it needs a fresh yes.
