If you’re a creative, artisan, or service provider looking to expand your reach and grow your business, Desire Homemade is the perfect platform for you. We offer a marketplace where local talent is celebrated, connecting artisans with customers who appreciate unique, handcrafted products and personalised services. Joining our platform not only allows you to showcase your products, but also helps you tap into new markets, connect with local customers, and build your brand in an authentic, supportive community.
At Desire Homemade, we recognise the challenges faced by artisans and service providers in today’s rapidly changing digital marketplace. Our platform is designed to help you thrive in a cluttered environment by offering local visibility, transparent pricing, and a community of buyers who value your craftsmanship. Whether you specialise in creating bespoke items or offering event-based services, our tools allow you to stand out and grow your business with confidence.
1. Local and National Exposure
Desire Homemade’s unique focus on local products ensures that your business gets visibility with nearby customers who are actively seeking to support artisans and creatives in their community. Our Shop Local feature allows buyers to discover you based on your geographic location, giving you the ability to reach customers in your area who may have otherwise missed out on your offerings.
At the same time, we offer the opportunity to reach a national audience, ensuring your handcrafted products and services can be found by people across the UK. With our platform, you can tap into both local and national markets, helping you grow your brand and increase sales.
2. Flexible Plans for Every Seller
We know that every business is unique, so we’ve created flexible membership plans to suit sellers at different stages of growth. You can start small with our Silver Seller Account, which allows you to list up to 10 products and assign them to 3 categories. This plan is perfect for sellers just starting out, providing basic support and lower commissions.
For those looking to scale their operations, our Gold Seller Account offers unlimited product listings and advanced tools to help you build your brand. For a limited time, we’re offering a free 6-month trial of our Gold Seller Account, which includes features like live chat with potential customers, priority seller support, and the ability to create bookable products. After the trial, you can choose to continue with Gold for £7.99 per month or switch to our free Silver plan.
3. Control and Transparency
At Desire Homemade, we prioritise transparency for both sellers and buyers. As a seller, you have full control over your pricing, payment options, and bookings. Our platform allows you to:
1. Unlimited Listings and Customisation
With the Gold Seller Account, you have the freedom to list an unlimited number of products and assign them to as many categories as you like. This gives your store the flexibility to grow and expand as your product offerings do. Whether you’re selling one-of-a-kind artwork, custom cakes, or offering wedding photography services, our platform allows you to showcase the full breadth of your talent.
2. Engage with Customers in Real Time
Engagement is key to building customer trust and loyalty. With the live chat feature on the Gold plan, you can engage directly with potential customers, answering questions in real time and providing the personal touch that sets small businesses apart. Offering instant quotes and responding quickly to inquiries can significantly improve your chances of securing bookings or sales.
3. Transparent Commissions
We understand the importance of transparency, especially when it comes to commission fees. On the Gold Seller Account, you pay just 5% commission on standard sales, allowing you to keep more of your hard-earned revenue. If we promote your items, the commission rises to 10%, ensuring that when you invest in higher visibility, it translates into more opportunities for sales.
Silver sellers pay 10% commission on standard sales and 20% on promoted items, making it a straightforward, cost-effective option for those starting out.
