- One of the most exciting no-code use cases utilizing the Webflow, Airtable, and Zapier stack are local marketplaces. In the first half of this session, I’ll highlight a few standouts that do marketplaces really well:
Chive: a New Zealand charity directory
Rivuuz: an odd jobs marketplace in Zambia
Unicorn Factory: a New Zealand-based freelancer marketplace
And during the second half, I’ll walk you through getting started with setting up your own marketplace - even if you’ve never used Webflow, Airtable, and Zapier together before.

Hi Connor, great vid! Where is the best place to learn how to create a listings and profile page?
Super helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Very organized
Super tks!
This is great!
Question about the 100cms limit though, how do you get around that in Webflow?
I don't have this issue on Unicorn Factory - hard to work around those limitations atm.
100 CMS limit? Isn't it 2000 on the CMS plan, and 10.000 on the business plan?
@@torkelvikeby my bad. I was thinking of 100 static pages, got mixed up.
You're right, 10000 cms on business plan.
@@connorfinlayson you have 4500 members now, does that mean you're limited to 10,000 members? I'd love to emulate unicorn factory but with booking available and for a different industry... i really want to use webflow though instead of WordPress.
Hi Connor, this is so good thanks a lot! I’m wondering if it’s possible to include a direct chat function between buyer and seller? So instead of the inquiry sent to email, a way to decrease time from inquiry to transaction? I’ve thought about a WhatsApp link to the sellers WhatsApp but that might lead to disintermediation. I’m curious what you think.
Do you have any advice or video on how you got Freelancers to onboard themselves?
Great video. Can you please share the list of all the tools you now use to run Unicorn Factory? I’m not familiar with most of these logos on your slide at the 9:07 mark.
Here are the tools I can name off the top of my head. However, you can ask Connor directly through his twitter account: twitter.com/FinlaysonConnor

- Zapier
- Parabola
- Nobull CMS
- Jetboost
- Make (formerly Integromat)
- Memberstack
- Airtable
- Circle
- Stripe

Can you also have a supplier add items (products) to its profile? A bit similar to what the ebays and amazons do?
yes, you can. i have a video on my channel explaining the portfolio gallery workflow that explains that.
