"You should have done sampling with it. I also recently just started a food business but cause I didn’t know what to do, I did sampling first and collected some contact, then said food was available for sale like 3 days later, then said sales weren’t great and are still not great yet, but it’s getting better cause the sampling opened up orders and people who tasted referred some friends to me tooo. I’m still considering doing another sampling you should try that tooo." to the post was overwhelming, with some TikTok users praising the vendor's hustle and urging her to keep pushing forward.
