  Stallholders at Australian Markets Invited To Join our Directory!   W elcome to the world of being a stallholder at a Local Australian Marke t! Local Markets have taken off over the past decade as people like you seek to make a meaningful connection with place, process and product. No longer is it good enough to present food of questionable origin, or buy clothes produced in sweatshops and not feel as you are as much a part of the problem for supporting it with your purchase. P eople have wised up to the idea that wearing a new $4 shirt means someone, somewhere in the world, has had to work by hand on that item in appalling conditions for as low as $1 for a 14 hour day. Going to the markets offers you the opportunity to connect with the producer of the item, and buying from the markets acts directly in supporting the stallholder to continue her handmade work. W hat's more - you can interact directly with manufacturer or artist and perhaps order a custo...

C riticism Is Opportunity Clearly we all have a hard time dealing with negative feedback. To the point everyone around you protects you from it. But criticism is just an opportunity to improve. An opportunity to improve & be better at what you do today than you were yesterday. I look at failure in the same way. If you fail at something, next time you are much more likely to succeed due to the first hand lessons learned. External criticism is exactly the same – except it is other people telling you how to reach further success. This guy does some inspirational work - have a look at http://www.matthewwoodward.co.uk/tutorials/

Account Creation There are not many variables that can be modified to dramatically increase retention of visitors and convert a visitor into a customer like not requiring account creation. When you force visitors to create an account and verify their email address prior to placing an order, you create an opportunity for the visitor to step out of the buying funnel and leave your site altogether. This means you have lost a potential customer simply by requiring account creation. We have seen dramatic increases in conversion simply by removing the account creation step. People who are ready to buy see email confirmation as unnecessary and will look elsewhere. Limit the steps and clicks between the visitor deciding to buy and actually carrying through with the order and you get an increase in sales. If you must have account creation, make it a natural part of the buying process that occurs simultaneously with placing an order – this way you get the sale and the account created wi...

Does your landing page convert visitors into customers? Getting your landing page right can be a great way to funnel potential buyers into your sales channel. The landing page acts as a gateway to the rest of your website, and customers who click through expect similar content and offers as was promised if they did indeed follow the link.  So always under promise and over deliver - people are shrewd and impatient with their time, so meaningful follow through is what is expected. * A strong call to action is essential to prompt the visitor into committing to the sale and following through with an order. *  Surround your sales pitch with quality relevant content that is freely available for the customer to access and hence gain some instant "value" or return on investment just by visiting your website. *  Capturing the buyers email address at any point in the buying cycle is worthwhile in that visitors who have previously shown an interest in your products wil...

Search Engine Optimization is improving the visibility and exposure of a website through careful attention to the website itself and the websites that link to it.  At The Australian Markets Directory, we have sustained success optimizing local sites for high traffic and exposure to buying customers – and we can do it for your site as well.  This means in real terms you can expect more calls, more traffic and hopefully more paying clients for your market stall . Most people use Google or Yahoo or Bing and type in a few words to search for some results.  And the results displayed are the closest match the search engine can find to give the correct, most accurate answer.  The search engine finds these results from the literally billions of pages of information online by giving each page a rating, or ranking, based on what the page is about (the content) and how trustworthy, reliable and authoritative the information is.

1.  Have you got a web presence already?  You might have a blog or a Facebook page – that is great, and can be a launching pad for an online store with ecommerce functionality.  If you don’t have a web presence, get started today by going over to blogspot.com and registering a blog in your niche.  It’s relatively straightforward and there are a multitude of tools, tutorials and support forums available to help. 2.  Once you have a web presence, fill out your landing page with relevant content – that means get busy writing a meaningful and honest About Us page for starters.  This way, potential customers can see what you’re all about and tell where your passion and enthusiasm for your niche shows.  Include images, video, testimonials – anything that relates to your market stall and what you are about.  This gives the search engines something to find when people go searching for your brand online.

A mind map is incredibly useful for constructing a new website, with multiple uses, layers and different landing pages focused on specific demographics.  With the freedom and flexibility of three dimensional mind maps available, you can literally drill down to the finest detail of what content is available on your site.  At Newcastle Digital we encourage multiple attempts at designing exactly what you have in mind – hence the love of mind maps!  Whilst your business could probably work with a five page site, it is simple work to expand to cover your target customers with some unique landing pages.  So for example you best spending customers are 30-45 year old women – we can create a landing page unique to this demographic with special offers to convert visitors into customers.

"Research is such an important part of starting a new Market Stall at your local markets. There is nothing worse than starting your market stall without knowing what the competition is. Some categories are basically overfull with stallholders and the competition is brutal! I wish that I had started off by thoroughly researching my niche and knowing at the bare minimum what the best five competitors were up to. There is nothing worse than finding out that you are just one of many sellers offering a similar product. Be yourself and most of all be honest about your products, the you will get repeat sales ” Abby, market stall with gift hampers and organics.

Markets Farmers Expansion Like all markets, growing your production is a steady process. Seasonal Conditions alone each year impacts heavily on both amount produced as well as overall vintage, that affects horticulture, aquaculture, across all farmers markets and local weekend business. No matter how good your practices and procedures, a poor quality harvest will severely limit your product potential. The cost of expansion is expensive and time consuming, although there are tremendous benefits across both health and local community by being involved. Local supply chains and delivery routes are established and the tentacles of the local fresh market spreads by face to face cross pollination. Key markets indicators suggest there is a strong growth in the localisation of food and food connections. The slow food movement, organic beliefs and wider understanding of permaculture is having a direct impact on the way people see food, and ultimately where they choose to buy...

How Well Does the Markets Directory Work? One thing we all know is that people expect a lot from their paid advertising.  What with social media offering a great way to get your message out there, why would you put your trust in an online directory, and most importantly, what will listing in the Markets Directory actually do for my business? I know you want exceptional results instantly with little or no effort at incredibly low cost – but that’s not achievable in the real world realistically.  So here’s what we can offer. I thought the best way to demonstrate this is to list your market stall in real time and let you see for yourself over time how many visitors and how much traffic you get to your site.  But that is too slow, so the next best thing is to reach out and explain that inbound links to your site, from authoritative, on-topic sites (like the Markets Directory) offer impressive value from search engines. Popular Niche Sites suit Directories How can I...

How Online Directories help Search Engines Online directories work much like the old telephone directory, except the Australian markets Directory is a niche –specific resource – which means it carries serious weight with the search engines.  When the search engine spider crawls through the directory, it establishes links and paths through the sites listed and with the category specific keywords – so your site is seen as part of the larger whole.  This works great for getting your site seen in the right neighbourhood – alongside your competitors and fellow market stallholders.

The best advice I can give is to treat every customer like you would like to be treated – simple as that.  I know it sounds old school, but the saying still holds true – the customer is always right!”
