Hi, I’m Joe Madden, and I’m one half of Dough Joe Bakery, a cottage business I run with my wife, Michelle. We make everything from scratch, from yogurts and cultured butter to breads and pastries. We love what we do, and we love the face-to-face connections that come with it. But this project—MarketDay Pro—is about something bigger.

MarketDay Pro is for local merchants who believe that small businesses are the heart of a thriving community. I started this project because I believe that, now more than ever, we need stronger local connections. People are looking for simpler, more meaningful ways of living, and local merchants—people like us—are more essential than ever.

MarketDay Pro isn’t just another e-commerce platform; it’s my vision for helping local businesses connect with their communities, grow their customer base, and thrive.

What MarketDay Pro Offers

A Platform Tailored for Local Merchants

I’m building MarketDay Pro for the needs I see firsthand as a cottage business owner: the need to sell on specific days, to manage inventory without stress, and to connect directly with customers.

Set Availability by Day

With MarketDay Pro, you can choose when each item is available. Whether it’s fresh bread only on Saturdays or special produce days, it’s simple for customers to see what’s available and when.

Flexible Pickup & Delivery Options

No complicated shipping setups needed. Offer porch pickup, meetups, or local delivery—whatever works best for you and your customers. They can select their preferred option at checkout.

Gift Certificates with QR Validation

Let customers buy gift certificates easily. Each certificate has a unique QR code, so you can quickly and securely validate it in person—perfect for local businesses.

Inventory Control That Works for You

Set limits for inventory, and MarketDay Pro will handle the rest. The system stops sales once an item reaches its limit, ensuring you never have to worry about overselling.

Why MarketDay Pro Matters

Local merchants have a unique role in shaping our communities. I believe that when local businesses thrive, they bring their communities with them. MarketDay Pro is my way of creating something that works for people who want to keep things simple, personal, and connected.
