With our Seller Referral program, you can earn marketing spend and also help grow the marketplace! Double win!
What is the Seller Referral program?
The Seller Referral program is a way to reward our sellers for referring fellow producers to apply to sell on Yumbles.
To help the marketplace continue to thrive and grow, we are on the lookout for more of the UK's most talented food & drink producers - and also kitchenware makers too! We typically focus on onboarding sellers in specific new or growing categories where an expanded selection is needed.
We carefully curate, only selecting producers whose products are unique to what is already on the marketplace, are excellent quality and are also a strong fit for the Yumbles audience. By widening the types of products that can be discovered on Yumbles, the marketplace will grow, and you will benefit!
What is the referral award?
Invite your fellow producers to apply on Yumbles and will reward YOU with a £200 voucher (special offer for July -September 2024, usually it is £100) for every referral of yours that is successful and launches by the end of September 2024. For successful referrals that launch after September 2024 you will receive £100 voucher.
You can use these vouchers to spend on:
- Christmas marketing packages (announced in August), or
- A bespoke marketing campaign. We will provide a menu of options and you can pick what you would like to run and when.
The vouchers can store up to be used in aggregate like credits and any credit balance not used can be used for future marketing bookings. Please read the terms and conditions.
Your producer friend will also receive a special onboarding package where we will give hands on assistance in their set-up (including listings!)
How do I participate?
Simply:
- Invite producer friends to apply on Yumbles here
- If they then apply we (Yumbles) will review their application (usually within 1-2 weeks) and confirm if we can accept them. We may ask for samples first to decide that.
- If the applicant is successful we will work with them to set-up and launch their shop as quickly and easily as possible providing your referral with full set-up support.
- When they launch we will notify you and provide you with your £200 credit for marketing and let you know how you can use it.
How many producers can I refer? And who should I invite to apply?
Invite as many as you like! There is no limit on referrals and therefore also no limit on the number of credits you can receive for referrals that are successful and launch.
However we do ask that referrals:
- are producers of food or drink! (or they make kitchenware or they put together unique foodie gifts/ hampers)
- are independent UK businesses
- produce excellent quality food/ drink/ foodie gifts
- they can sell directly to consumers
What are you looking for?
Quality and originality are key. We are interested in any spectacular food/ drink/ kitchenware makers but we are particularly looking for:
- artisan bread bakeries,
- doughnut makers,
- keto, vegan and free from bakeries,
- confectioners - particularly for specialities like indian and middle eastern confections,
- fish & seafood,
- pie & sausage roll makers,
- cheese makers,
- Christmas pudding & cake makers
However we are taking applications from a wide range of producers, this list isn’t exhaustive.
