Farm2Fork was rapidly outgrowing its Facebook-page based ordering system. Keeping track of orders, figuring out payment, and mapping out delivery routes ate up the majority of owner Jonnel’s 12 hour days.

- Write and design regular blog and newsletter content to send weekly
The Results

- Increased sales by over 500%
- Over 500+ 5 star reviews on Google and Facebook
- Thousands of dollars in revenue in the first hour after a newsletter was sent Increased order value by over 90%
- Expanded business to new markets
- Went from working 7 days a week with only Christmas off to a 5 day work week without hiring any new staff
“Working with VCC, I was able to scale my business from a hectic and all-consuming Facebook page-based system to an automated ecommerce website. There is a lot of trust and loyalty between us… I run the day-to-day side of my business and they take care of the marketing and automation and anything to do with the website. I really do trust their judgement and recommendations – they get the results they say they’ll get!
It has worked really well for me, and I was able to grow my business to the point where I could sell it.” -Jonnel
