Your craft sells its story — at a fair price.
Handmade deserves more than “kitne ka?” HeyHomie tells the story behind each piece, handles bulk return-gift orders, and brings buyers back festival after festival.

Sound familiar?
“Is this really handmade? Why so costly?” You explain the 6 hours of work every single time — and still discount to close.
What if every buyer understood the craft, paid a fair price, and came back for bulk return-gifts and the next festival?
The pain
Three things quietly costing you sales.
01 · Pain
“Itna mehenga kyun?” — on every single chat.
Buyers compare your hand-thrown pottery to factory goods. You re-tell the whole “three days per piece, natural dye, made by a women's cluster” story from scratch, every single time.
02 · Pain
“Rate for 100 pieces?” — then ten messy messages.
A bulk gifting enquiry lands as one vague line, then sprawls into MOQ, branding, timeline, customisation — with no clean way to capture it, while a faster vendor sends a tidy quote and wins the order.
03 · Pain
Last Diwali's happy buyer starts cold again.
Someone loved your hamper last year. There's no record of who she was or what she bought — so every festival begins from zero, instead of a warm “welcome back”.
How it works for you
From first message to repeat customer.
01
The story sells the price
“Oh, ab samajh aaya” — and she buys two.
When she balks at the price, the catalogue tells the story for you — hand-woven in Bhagalpur, three days a piece, natural azo-free dye, the artisans behind it. Buyers stop haggling once they see the craft.
Outcome — Price-objection walk-aways drop sharply, because value is shown before she asks.

Bulk & gifting, the easy way
A clean quote where there used to be ten messages.
“120 Diwali gifts with our logo” triggers a guided flow that captures quantity, branding, gift-wrap and deadline, then returns a professional quote with MOQ and make-time — so corporates get a real response, not “DM for price”.
Outcome — Bulk enquiry → order conversion rises from ~12% to ~30%. The big orders stop slipping away.

Gift-ready, no extra negotiation
Wrap, message card and hampers — offered up front.
Gift-wrap, a personalised message card and curated hampers sit right in the catalogue, so return-gift and corporate buyers get a finished, gift-ready product without another round of haggling.
Outcome — Average order value rises 15-30% through wraps, hampers and bundle nudges.

Advance, then production
You only start making once the order is paid.
For bulk orders the bot sends a written summary and a fair part-advance link (not a random UPI), backed by your reviews and registered-business details. Production begins on confirmed, paid orders — never on a promise.
Outcome — No more starting a big batch unsure whether you'll actually be paid.

Festive rush, on track
No more “mera order kahan hai?” during Diwali week.
Make-time and dispatch ETAs are set before each order is confirmed, with tracking and auto updates — so the festive flood that used to jumble in your head now runs on clear, honest timelines.
Outcome — Festive dispatch-delay complaints fall sharply — the reputation you built over years stays intact.
“where's my order?” at peak season
06
They come back every season
One Diwali sale becomes a yearly tradition.
Last year's buyer is remembered. “Wahi diya set, 5 aur” becomes a two-minute reorder with a matching hamper suggested and free wrap — and gentle festival nudges bring her circle along too.
Outcome — Festive repeat rate climbs from ~15% to ~28%. Word-of-mouth, season after season.

Real story
What changed for Kavya R.
“People used to ask why handmade costs more, and I'd lose them while explaining. Now the story is told before they ask, the bulk quotes go out clean and instant, and my corporate Diwali orders tripled. My craft finally gets the price it deserves.”

Questions, answered
The things sellers ask us first.
Why is it more expensive than what's in the market?
Because the catalogue tells the story up front — hand-made, days of work, natural dyes, the artisan cluster — so buyers understand they're paying for craft and a livelihood, not a factory copy.
What's the bulk rate, MOQ, and can you add our logo?
A guided bulk-enquiry flow captures quantity, branding, gift-wrap and deadline and returns a clear quote with MOQ (from ~50) and make-time — a professional response, not a one-liner.
It's handmade — will quality stay consistent?
Slight variation is the beauty of handmade; the page sets that expectation honestly, backed by real customer photos and a clear ‘damaged/defective = replacement’ policy.
You want an advance — how do I know you're genuine?
Reviews, past corporate clients and registered-business details sit on the page, and a fair part-advance via a secure link (not a random UPI) plus a written summary protect both sides.
Will it arrive in time for Diwali or a wedding?
Make-time and dispatch ETA are stated before you confirm, with order tracking — so festive and gifting buyers get a realistic timeline, never an impossible promise.
