How it will look
Guide
Step 1: Build your marketplace of services as your 1st App - This will be the "Marketplace APP"
This is going to be your main marketplace platform from which you invite, onboard suppliers.
You can definitely give this application to residents of some buildings but as it will be a generic application, they wont be able to find building information.
Step 2: For each building, create a specific building application
Sign up to Blackbell Marketplace Plan - Sign up
We will name the app "Building 1 APP" in this example
Structure the app with menus, add pictures of the building...
Setup the "My Marketplace" section. Mark this marketplace as open so as to allow other Blackbell apps to submit their pages into this app
From the 1st "Marketplace APP", go to Promote > Sell via Marketplaces and push the pages of the suppliers you want to offer into the "Building 1 APP" - How to
You can of course add specific services for this building directly from the back-office of this application
That's it! This application "Building 1 APP" will contain both services of Building 1 and services from suppliers you have onboarded on your Marketplace APP
Repeat this step for all buildings
✅ The advantages
You only have to invite suppliers ONCE and then dispatch their pages to as many apps as you want.
This is easier for you to manage.
Each building get a dedicated environment to push specific information and services
