One friend in social media is earning good money with her small business of selling fresh fruits and vegetables. She has a direct contact with the farm so she has no problem with the supply. What she does is to check on the farm for the potential harvest for the next day. She takes pictures that she posts in social media. Those pictures would elicit a good number of order.
On the day of harvest she would go to the farm and buy the exact volume based on the orders of her customers. All the products are guaranteed fresh so her customers never waver in patronizing her products. The leverage is the delivery system. She has her own delivery vehicle which is a small pick up truck. She also limits her customers by taking orders only from residents of her town and the nearby towns. Distant customers are not entertained because it can affect the profitability. I admire her style of business that is on a per order basis only. She has been doing that for years now.
