Sales Report - March 2019
We are providing monthly sales reports for our community marketplace in the spirit of transparency.
March has shown that the first three months for our co-op has created a consistent baseline of sales. The average monthly sales so far this year is $239.
This is great progress but it leaves more to be desired. We are ramping up our efforts as a community to promote our co-op both in steem and outside of steem.
Only 5 days into April and we have already seen $116 in sales accross our co-op which may indicate a strong month for sales. We'll see how the rest of the month shapes up.
And for now here are the stats for March.

100% of the profit is retained
True to our mission to seek empowerment over profit, 100% of funds transferred between customer and vendor are safely in the vendors' hands.
We are not middlemen in the transactions, so we never touched any of the funds, nor did we take any commission. In fact Homesteaders Co-op was bypassed completely during financial transactions between customer and vendor - this is by design.

I was talking earlier to someone, and I told them this is one of my favorite projects on steem. Thanks for paving the way and giving others a blueprint on how to add real world value to steem!
Agreed.
I've not seen a project like it in the crypto space. Adding a real world application to a specific crypto currency that's easy to adopt and earn is amazing.
