The Good Life heads up to Amazon
The
Internetfarmshop.com is an online community of food
producers and farm shops. The site was launched on 1st
July by Christopher and Ann Brown as a way for small food
producers, organic growers and farm shops to promote their
products in a more dynamic way.
For £15 a
month each member of the community has their own page on the
site with original images taken by Chris who is a
professional photographer. Members are encouraged to submit
new product information, special offers and whatever is new
with their business so that the pages are updated on a
weekly basis and are a real source of up to date information
and product news.
Christopher Brown said ‘We are both passionate
about the excellent good quality local produce
available around the UK and as Internet
marketers we know how difficult it is for any
small business to make a real impact on the
Internet. This is where the idea for the
Internet farmshop.com came from’. ‘We both
knew that the online community would be a
fantastic way for small producers to promote
their quality products to both a local market
and a wider market. Although the site is very
new this has already started to happen with
individual producers pages found following
Internet searches for their type of produce.
With our experience of Internet marketing and
our knowledge of how the Internet works we can
really make this a fantastic and dynamic way for
even the smallest producers to trade and promote
their products to a wider market place. An added
bonus of the online community is that members
are using the community as a business network
and we believe this will develop into another
way for them to market and sell their products’.
Plans for the
future of the site include increasing the number of
community members across the UK, adding online search
facilities and online shopping. To date the site has had
over 11,000 visits. ENDS
