Everything we know
about launching
local marketplaces.
Practical guides for founders and operators — from launch sequencing to vendor onboarding to retention mechanics. Written from real marketplace experience, not textbook theory.
The Marketplace Launch Playbook
A step-by-step framework for launching your first local marketplace — from choosing a category to the numbers that tell you it is working. Nine pages of practical guidance, no fluff.
What's inside:
- Sizing a catchment and picking the one category to launch with
- The vendor document checklist and catalogue standard
- Rider ratios and a worked per-order margin breakdown
- Commission rates, the delivery-fee ladder and the discount trap
- A T-30 to T+7 launch checklist
- The six numbers that matter in your first 90 days
