Monday: Open for Orders. Friday: Sold Out.

Christmas shoppers in the UK are expected to spend a record £28.5 billion online this year, according to Adobe Digital Insights.

That’s a lot of Christmas shopping. And it’s not all going to happen at the supermarket.

Independent butchers, bakers and food makers have something people want. The trick is making it easy for them to buy it.

A little Christmas story we rather like

On Monday, a merchant set up their Tenvito order book in a couple of minutes.

By Friday, they’d sold out. Every order paid for, up front.

And the rest of Christmas is already sorted. Every customer’s details in one place. A production list for every day. A packing slip for every order. Confirmations and collection times sent without anyone picking up the phone.

So when the rush comes, they’re not chasing payments or deciphering notes. They’re baking, packing and handing over.

Still on paper? Don’t panic.

If your Christmas order book is still sitting on a piece of paper, take a photo of your product list. Let Cosmo turn it into an online shop. And start taking orders.

No big project. No weeks of work. Just your products, your customers and a Christmas order book that’s ready for business.

It’s not too late to have a very merry Christmas. Get your Christmas Order Book online →
