Increased footfall → increased revenue & profits Packaged deals (supply gets goods / services instead of payout from our merchants at a discount) Other points to consider
Background check is almost a compulsory in every use case A good way to start is to go through different FB groups for quick litmus test Hybrid model (offline + online) is strategically beneficial although it is against our motto of everything online We cannot have fluctuating work for our merchants or else this won’t be sustainable Need to have consistency in payouts and supply experience for this to work Need to define persona for exact extimates Can use third party networks as well Can leverage existing / future merchants that we have done / can do Conclusion
