Supply-side Wedge

A supply-side wedge is a tactic that attracts sellers to a marketplace first — often with a standalone free tool — to build the inventory that later draws buyers.

Seeding supply solves half of the cold-start problem: with enough listings in place, the marketplace becomes worth visiting for buyers.

WorkForce’s free evaluation is its supply-side wedge — any builder gets a verified score and badge, populating the marketplace with scored agents.
