Over the past few months, I’ve been building tools to help small businesses in my town compete with Uber Eats, DoorDash, and all the big platforms taking a big cut of their sales. What started as me helping a few local shops with websites and simple email campaigns turned into a full system that others could use too.
I called it Main Street Marketing Starter Kit and it's a bundle that lets anyone start their own mini marketing agency for local businesses.
Here’s what’s included:
Main Street Mailer – generates QR codes for in-store signups and sends AI-written email offers with a single click
Marketing Toolbox – a lightweight AI platform that helps plan offers, copy, and campaigns
Training videos and setup guide – so anyone can get started in a few hours, even with zero coding or marketing background
Everything runs on Replit, so it’s plug-and-play without hosting headaches.
I listed it on Gumroad as a $99 “starter business in a box” and have already had early feedback from people using it to run promos for their neighborhood pizza place or gym.
My goal is to make small-town marketing simple and give people a real way to help local shops bring customers back in-store.
If you’ve ever sold digital products or launched a micro-SaaS, I’d love to hear:
How did you drive your first 20–50 sales?
Any tips for building a small creator community around it?

Thanks for reading! Open to feedback, ideas, or even collaborations if you’re also building for small business owners.
This is such a smart initiative, Kevin 👏 Love how you’re empowering local businesses to own their marketing instead of relying on big delivery apps. The “starter kit” approach feels both accessible and scalable. I’ve seen how community-focused marketing like this can really build loyalty fast , would love to follow your progress and see how you grow it. 🚀
This is fantastic work Kevin. Building tools to help local businesses compete with the big platforms is truly valuable. I love how you've packaged everything into a starter kit that anyone can use to help their community thrive.
