    Create the form. Add Whole turkey by weight, Turkey breast, Turkey with stuffing with example prices and a limit for each choice.

  2. 02

    Share your link. Post the page where butchers and poultry sellers planning christmas stock already look for updates. State the pickup window and location, and let customers reserve from the same limited menu instead of collecting orders in separate messages.

  3. 03

    Prepare and hand over. Use the order and prep lists to total each option before a seasonal poultry order where weight, preparation and collection date must be clear. At 23–24 December (example), check the order details as each customer collects and mark the order as collected. Payment is handled in person on the free plan.

  3. Include estimated weight range, preparation, stuffing, storage and collection instructions in each description. Add ingredient, allergen, size or care details that matter for the product.
