For market vendors
The customers who promised to come back?
Text them.
Put a QR card on your booth and send a text the night before each market. The regulars who already love what you make actually come back.
No credit card required
It happens at every market. A great conversation, a sale, a promise to come back — and the next Saturday most of them don’t. They forgot which weekend you were where. They didn’t see your Instagram post. Life happened.
VendorLoop is built for that exact problem. It gives you a direct line to the customers who already love what you make — without relying on the algorithm to reach them.
Instagram isn’t reaching them.
The standard plan is to post the night before each market. “We’ll be at the [market] tomorrow!” with a photo of the booth.
The problem is the algorithm. Instagram only shows posts to a small slice of your followers — usually around 6%. So if you have 1,200 followers, post once, maybe 70 people see it. A handful of those will actually show up.
The rest tell you later: “I missed your post — when’s your next one?”

You posted to 1,200 followers. ~70 saw it.
Text them instead.
VendorLoop is a texting tool made specifically for market vendors. Setup is straightforward:
Step 1
Pick a QR card design. Print it. Prop it at your booth.
You sign up, get your own dedicated phone number, and pick from 8 ready-to-print designs. Each one auto-fills your business name and keyword.
Print at home or at any copy shop, prop it on your booth table next to a few signature pieces. That’s the entire physical setup.
Step 2
Customers scan with their camera — no app.
They point their phone’s camera at the QR (the same way they’d scan a restaurant menu), tap the link, type their number. They’re on your list in a few seconds.
Or if they prefer to type — they text a keyword to your number (e.g. “LUNA” or “HONEY” or whatever you pick) and they’re instantly subscribed. Both work; some customers like one, some like the other.
Step 3
Text them the night before your next market.
One text. Where you’ll be, what time, what you’re bringing. No algorithm deciding who sees it — texts get opened, almost always within the first hour. The customers who already wanted to come back finally have a reason on their phone telling them where to be.
Inside the app
Your subscribers, your next market, one tap to text everyone.
No CRM jargon. No 14-tab settings. Open the dashboard, see what you need, send the text.

That’s the actual dashboard. Your subscriber list, your scheduled texts, and your next market on one screen.
What changes when you start.
Most vendors pick up 10–25 subscribers at their first market with the QR card on the table. By a couple months in, they have a list of regulars they can actually reach.
The difference at the booth is real. Customers who’d only stopped by once will come back and say “I drove out specifically because of your text.” They show up the right Saturday, at the right market, because you told them where to be.
It’s not magic. It’s just a more direct line to the people who already wanted to hear from you. That’s the whole thing.
Two ways customers can join.
Both done from your booth in seconds. Customers pick whichever feels easier.
QR code on the table
Print one of the included QR card designs and prop it at your booth. Customers point their phone camera at it, tap once, enter their number. They’re on your list before they walk away.
Text a keyword
Some customers prefer to type. Put your keyword on your booth sign — they text it to your number and they’re instantly subscribed. Hands-free for you, easy for them.

- Your own dedicated phone number — same number every time
