    Jun 19 2026

    Are you still taking orders through Facebook Messenger, Instagram DMs, or text messages? In this episode, we share the top 10 reasons why every charcuterie business, cottage food business, baker, maker, and food entrepreneur needs a professional website.

    We also talk about preparing for fall market season, why now is the time to apply for holiday vendor events, and how a website can help us generate sales year-round instead of relying solely on social media.
