Short term income strategy (poultry):
Income: Daily
Lead time: 7 days
Danilla will buy chicken eggs from contract farmers who will exchange eggs for feed and a wallet payment. Farmers need to deliver their eggs weekly and collect feed so that they run effective routes with eggs out of their farm and feed into their farm. Farmers are issued with a cash back into their GroSpace wallet for every tray of eggs that they deliver along with a bonus for returning their empty feed bags with food waste from nearby restaurants or manure from their livestock. Danilla uses this food waste to feed her own chickens, the manure she uses to feed her soil.

Danilla will take orders and sell POL hens. She has set herself a target of selling 5000 hens weekly at R160/hen. After GroSpace’s commission is removed Danilla will receive R139.50 and she will contract for the purchase of R120 per POL. She will generate R97500 per week in Profit. R97500*4,33= R422 175 – R7899(marketing budget) = R414 276 monthly profit.
Road to success
Danilla needs to register for a GroShop and setup her shop with the products that she wants to sell. She needs to share her product links to relevant interested buyers on social media to start attracting interested buyers. Danilla wants to sell DOCs(Broiler), feed and she wants to take orders on POL hens. She will sell her broiler package with 500 chicks and 1 ton of feed(20 bags of 50kg each) she will sell this for R15 999 and orders will be placed on her GroShop. Danilla’s invoicing and inventory is automatically managed.
That bespoke experience
Danilla gets a personal assistant to help design and implement her marketing campaign whilst Danilla’s GroShop will take orders for POL hens and broiler kits. She will use the link to her GroShop to share on social media and on her WhatsApp status daily and over time she will be inundated with leads. She will organise this chaos by funnelling her leads through her GroShop where they will find answers to common questions.
