Our project is open to individual students or groups.

Our e-commerce ecosystem connects consumers with their local producers and suppliers of fresh food and other artisanal products. We work with entrepreneurs and small businesses to help get their unique, high quality products more known by consumers. Our vision is to make fresh, unique and wholesome local products more available and accessible.

We would like to work with students in helping us support our businesses to succeed.

The particular challenge we are facing is how to effectively communicate our brand and platform to a wide range of consumers and businesses. Some questions that could be answered in helping us face this challenge include:

• Does our digital marketing strategy communicate our brand effectively?
• What can be improved in our outreach and marketing process to attract the types of business we’re looking for?
• What can be improved in our on-boarding and support processes to retain businesses and ensure their success?
• What can be improved in our sales funnel to improve conversion and increases purchases through the platform?
• What are some additional up-sell opportunities to increase revenue streams for our business?

Some tasks that could help us face this challenge include:

• Analyzing sales and communications strategies and providing recommendations
• Experiencing our current business development process and making recommendations for improvements
• Creating a data visualization of our sales funnel
• Managing customer relations and making recommendations for improvements
• Creating marketing campaigns
• Creating a customer relations process that makes it easier to support existing customers
• Discovering and innovating new revenue streams that fit within our existing business

We are looking for students who can provide:

• Attention to our real-world challenges
• Practical solutions to address our challenges
• Regular connections with our team members

Direct mentorship from the company's founding team will be offered.
