You're already investing in Faire. The question is whether Faire is investing back.

Most brands on Faire are working harder than they need to — and growing slower than they should. Not because their product isn't good. Because the platform rewards a very specific set of behaviours most brands don't know about yet.

Every week without the right approach is a week the algorithm learns the wrong things about your store. The gap compounds quietly — until it doesn't.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Flying blind

    You can see the numbers but don't know which ones actually matter - or what to do about them.

  • Hit a ceiling

    You grew Faire yourselves — up to a point. Now it's stuck and more effort isn't moving it.

  • people icon

    One time buyers

    Retailers place a first order then go quiet. You don't have a system to bring them back.

  • No benchmark

    You don't know if 6% conversion is good or terrible for your category. There's no reference point.

  • Wrong job

    You're spending hours on Faire admin — messaging, listings, emails — instead of building your brand. It's taking up more than it's giving back.

  • Channel guilt

    You can see the channel needs investment but you simply don't have the time or motivation to give it the attention is requires

You're not looking for more work to do on Faire. You're looking for the growth you're already owed.

Candid Founders exists for one reason: brands on Faire are under-growing relative to what the platform could deliver for them. We close that gap — faster and more reliably than any brand can do alone.

We know this because we've lived it. We own the fastest growing sock brand in Europe for Faire — not by accident, but by learning exactly what the platform rewards.

Every month without the right approach costs more than you realize.

Faire's algorithm learns from your store's performance. Poor conversion rates, inactive listings, and inconsistent outreach don't just limit growth — they actively suppress it. The longer it goes, the harder the recovery.

You need a team who give you time back.

Imagine what you could do if the day-to-day growth of your Faire account was no longer sitting on your list.

We’ve been in the founder seat too.

You are not short on potential. You are short on time, clarity, and the right channel support.

When you are running a product brand, it can feel like every growth option comes with a cost. Paid ads on Meta and Google get more expensive. Trade shows demand huge cash upfront. Retail outreach takes time you do not have. And Faire can feel like another channel you know you should be growing — but do not have the headspace to properly manage.

We understand that because we have been there.

Back in 2019, we were in the same position: sitting on a product brand we knew had potential, but struggling to get the traction it deserved. We decided to take Faire seriously, learnt what the platform rewarded, and went on to become the fastest-growing sock brand in Europe on the channel.

Since then, we have shared what we learnt through Candid Founders, taught thousands of brands how to grow on Faire, and built a specialist agency that manages Faire growth for product brands like yours.

When you work with us, we become your trusted Faire growth partner. We take the day-to-day work off your plate, help your brand get noticed in Faire’s algorithm, and give you back the time and focus to lead the rest of your business.

You bring the product brand with potential. We help Faire give it the growth it deserves.

Our Faire growth team becomes yours.

Faire growth should not depend on you finding spare hours in the week.

When you work with Candid Founders, our team becomes an extension of yours — taking care of the day-to-day strategy, optimization, creative, account management, and growth activity needed to make Faire work harder for your brand.

Instead of trying to manage every part of the channel yourself, you gain access to a specialist team that understands how Faire works from every angle: SEO, email marketing, account management, design, retail strategy, and commercial growth.

Everyone on your account has a clear role, but one shared goal: to help your brand become one of the strongest in its category on Faire.

So while we focus on growing your Faire account, you get the time and headspace back to focus on the bigger parts of the business only you can lead.

A specialist partner, not another channel to manage.

You do not need a generalist agency trying to figure Faire out on your budget.

Faire growth is what we do every day. We understand the platform, the retailers, the ranking factors, the conversion levers, and the small details that can make a big difference to performance.

When we work with your brand, we go deeper than surface-level account management. We look at the nuances of your business, your product range, your margins, your positioning, your retailers, your content, your outreach, and your long-term growth goals — then we make sure every moving part is ready to support growth on Faire.

Our job is to take more of the Faire to-do list off your plate and become a true growth partner inside your business.

So you are not left wondering what to fix, what to prioritise, or whether Faire is being properly managed. You have a specialist team focused on making the channel work harder for you.

Stay because it works, not because you’re locked in.

You should never feel locked into an agency that is not delivering for your brand.

That is why we do not believe in long-term lock-in contracts. We would rather earn your trust through the quality of our work, the clarity of our communication, and the growth we help create.

All of our contracts are 30-day rolling, giving you the flexibility to stay because the partnership is working — not because you are tied into a long agreement.

If we are not the right fit, we shake hands and part ways.

No pressure. No awkward lock-ins. Just a partnership built on performance, trust, and mutual respect.
