Make a great profile ➡️

Build Trust with a Great Profile

Let people know who you are, what you offer, and how to connect. A thoughtful profile helps the right people connect with you—and makes your listings even more effective.

🧑‍🌾 Profile Photo

  • A clear, friendly image helps build trust.
  • Doesn’t need to be a headshot—bonus points for action shots or farm vibes.

📝 Your Bio

  • Keep it short and friendly.
  • Share where you're located and what you raise, create, or provide.
  • Include any unique experience or specialties.

🏷️ Choose Your Specialties

  • Select your farm type, services, and features—these help the right people find you.
  • You can always update them later as your work evolves.

💬 Set Expectations

  • Be upfront about what’s included, timelines, and how you work.
  • Responding quickly helps build trust and encourages repeat business.
  • Communicate changes proactively if anything shifts.
