Here’s my first set of test focaccia to sell on Saturday. The first pic is a cinnamon focaccia, the second in order: garlic parm, bacon cheddar, jalapeño cheddar, and garden. The kids and I had this for dinner, and we decided to make the bacon, garlic bread, and garden ones to sell. These are all about 5x7 in size making 4 pieces in each. Eventually I hope to make these Ligurian style, but baby steps. I’ll send more pics once I have some packaged. Has anyone else sold focaccia at market? Any helpful tips?

@Henry Hunter Ok. So I forgot to cut the butter into the dry ingredients for the biscuit topping,🤦🏽‍♀️ so I cut it into the dough, and it turned out delicious, anyway!☺️☺️ Served it with this homemade 3 ingredient vanilla ice cream, https://www.inthekitchenwithmatt.com/3-ingredient-vanilla-ice-cream though I made my own sweetened condensed milk with A2 grass fed milk, A2 grass fed cream, and my sugar in all of it was a monk fruit and allulose sugar substitute that is delicious in everything I use it in. https://www.wholesomeyumfoods.com/shop/sweeteners/monk-fruit/monk-fruit-allulose-blend/ Thanks, Chef, for this delicious recipe! I won't have to drool over pictures of yours anymore!😂😂😂🥳🥳🥳👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. As you can see, it's half gone in less than 24 hours!

Most of us count the wrong thing. You get home from market, you count what you sold, and if the number’s good it was a good day. Here’s the number that actually matters. A first-time customer is worth about ten dollars. A regular is worth closer to two hundred over a season. Same loaf. Same table. The whole business is in the second sale, not the first. And here’s the part that stung when I figured it out: most first-timers who come back do it within two weeks, or they never do. That window closes fast, and most bakers spend it doing nothing. Lesson 6.3 is up in the classroom. It’s the four-week welcome sequence I used, built on one idea. Give three times before you ask once. Week one you thank them. Week two you help them enjoy the loaf they already bought. Week three you show them how it’s made. Week four you invite them back. No software. I ran mine out of a notebook with three columns. Question for you: what’s the last thing you did for a customer after they bought from you? Not the sale, the follow-up. Drop it below. If the answer is nothing, say that too. That’s where most of us started. Perfection is not required. Progress is. Henry⭐️🔥
