📝 To Do List

(Rough starter — we’ll refine later.)

  1. Choose a platform or format (Facebook group, PDF mag, blog page, etc).
  2. Create fun, themed ad templates (Buy, Sell, Swap, Wanted, Shoutout).
  3. Set guidelines for what’s allowed (e.g., handmade only? local only?).
  4. Design eye-catching category headers (Gifts, Art, Events, etc).
  5. Invite early contributors with free promo slots.
  6. Allow space for images, links, and short descriptions.
  7. Feature a “Star Seller” or “Item of the Week.”
  8. Add a section for swaps and trades — keep it fun and friendly.
  9. Build in community rules (polite, prompt, no pushy sales).
  10. Encourage users to promote their ads in stories or via QR codes.
