The Problem
Instagram isn't reaching your regulars.
- ✕Your followers don't see every post
- ✕Stories disappear after 24 hours
- ✕The algorithm buries your announcements
- ✕Customers forget which market you'll be at
- ✕"Are you going to be there this weekend?" — on repeat
Text messages get opened. Every time.
Instagram reaches ~6% of your followers. A VendorLoop text reaches 100% of your list.
Simple Setup
From first scan to loyal regular.
Takes about 5 minutes to set up. Works at any market, pop-up, or themed event.
Get your QR code and text keyword
Display the QR code at your booth — or just tell customers to text your keyword. You get your own dedicated phone number so it's always consistent.
Customers scan or text to join
They scan the QR, or text your keyword to your number. Either way they're on your list in seconds. No app needed on their end.
Text them before your next event
Schedule a text before your next market, announce a new product, or send a same-day reminder. Your regulars show up because you told them where to be.
Only text the customers who are near your next event.
After joining your list, subscribers reply with their zip code. VendorLoop stores their location. When you schedule a market or pop-up, flip on proximity targeting — and only the subscribers who are nearby get the text.
Customers who aren't near your next stop won't hear from you this time — and they won't unsubscribe. They'll hear from you when you're back in their area. Lower opt-outs. Happier list.
- ✓Customers set their own location — just reply with a zip
- ✓Events only text nearby subscribers automatically
- ✓No zip code? Subscriber always receives your texts
- ✓Toggle proximity on or off per event or campaign
Before proximity targeting
You do markets across multiple cities. Every subscriber gets every text — including people who are nowhere near your next stop. Some opt out. Your list shrinks.
With proximity targeting
You set the event location. VendorLoop identifies who's nearby and sends the text only to them. Everyone else stays on your list and hears from you when you're in their area.

Real-World Example
Imagine this:
You did a craft fair last month. 40 customers visited your booth, loved your work, and scanned your QR code.
The night before your next event, you send one text:
“Hey, it's Luna Clay Co! We'll be at the Nashville Farmers Market this Saturday 10am–4pm. Bringing our new glazed collection — and the mugs everyone kept asking about are finally back in stock.”
You set up your booth Saturday morning.
Three people walk straight to you and ask for the mugs by name.
That's VendorLoop.
One good market weekend can pay for the whole year.
