The short version
A form, not a project
What you sell, where your stall or shop is, your WhatsApp number. Minutes, on a phone, with no account and no card.
A page we build and host
Your photos and your line of goods at their own web address. There is no website for you to make, pay for or keep updated.
They ask before they travel
A tap opens a chat with you, so somebody coming from Croydon can check you have it before they get on the train.
Nothing to pay now or later, and no commission. Every sale is settled at your counter exactly as it is today.
One question saves a wasted journey
It saves the customer an hour and saves you the conversation with somebody who came for something you do not stock. Both of you get the afternoon back.
- A WhatsApp button that opens a chat with you
- Your own page with its own web address
- Photos of your goods, your shop or your work
People search for the thing, not the shop
They type the ingredient and the area, not a business name they do not know. Your listing sits under your category and your part of London, which is how the question gets asked.
- Listed under your category and your city
- A real page search engines can read, not a photo in a group
The shopping list changes with what is in season back home
Certain things arrive when they arrive, and the people who want them know roughly when to start asking. A trader who can be messaged in that fortnight sells the lot; a trader who cannot sells it slowly to whoever happens to walk past.
No paid placement of any kind
Nobody can buy a position above you here, because we have built no way to take money at all.
- Free to list, with nothing to pay later
- No commission on anything you sell
- Every listing is checked before it goes live
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning is a two season trade now
Air conditioning stopped being a summer call once offices, salons and food shops started wanting it fitted and serviced all year, while boiler and heating work still fills the winter. Black Friday week has quietly become part of that calendar too, because a boiler or a heat pump is exactly the sort of thing a household finally books when it is being talked about everywhere.
- Listed under your category and your city
- A real page search engines can read, not a photo in a group
- Customers can leave a rating and a review
Let people check before they travel
Free listing, one short form, and questions arrive on WhatsApp.
Questions
I run a market stall rather than a shop.
That is fine. Your listing carries your category and your area.
Any fees?
None to list and none on what you sell.
Do I need a website first?
No. There is no website in this at all. We make the page.
I am a plumber, electrician or heating engineer. Can I list?
Yes, and the trades are some of the most searched work on here. Plumbing, electrical work, boiler and heating engineering, gas work, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning all list the same way, free and with no commission. Your registrations, your qualifications and your insurance stay exactly as they were: a listing is none of those things and never presents itself as one.
