Tips for Selling on Now
1. What is Selling Food on Now?
Now is a food delivery and various items application that connects food establishments with customers. Sellers can list their food items on the app, making it easy for users to choose dishes that suit their needs. Now is currently available in major cities such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Da Nang, Hai Phong, and more. As a result, many customers looking for food turn to Now.
Now has outlined the selling process for stores wishing to sell on the platform with the following steps:

- Step 2: Customers purchase your food on Now
- Step 3: A shipper will come to your store to pick up the ordered food
- Step 4: Payment for the food will be returned by the shipper or can be received through the app
Selling on Now helps you attract more customers compared to not being on the platform. However, in return, you need to pay a commission to Now, approximately 20% per order.

4. Tips for Selling Food on Now
Similar to offline businesses, running a food delivery business on the Now app comes with its challenges. If you don't stand out among other stores catering to the same target audience, your business may stagnate, leading to potential closure. To effectively sell food on Now, especially, consider the following aspects:
* Improve Business Operations
When selling on Now, increasing your visibility leads to more orders. Inadequate preparation may result in overloads, order confusion, missed orders, delayed deliveries, and insufficient inventory. Therefore, mentally prepare and ensure you have all the necessary packaging materials, plastic containers, and more.
Update Store Information on Now
* Regularly Update Store Information
To keep your store from becoming 'stale,' regularly update images of new, higher-quality dishes or any new items. Also, update relevant information about the dishes, such as processing ingredients and descriptions. This helps garner more reviews from customers, building trust with more visitors to your store.
* Engage with Customer Feedback
Regardless of whether feedback is positive or negative, it's essential to interact and demonstrate receptivity to customer suggestions. This builds a favorable impression, encouraging customers to stay with you. For negative reviews, assess and adjust the food quality to better suit everyone's taste.
