Maker portrait

Fanny, chef and cheesemaker in Old Lyon

A former shepherdess on an organic dairy farm, Fanny Bronner moved to the city to teach what no book can: the craft itself. In her workshop on the banks of the Saône, you make raw-milk mozzarella, burrata and halloumi, cook with produce from farmers within 20 km, and take your creations home. Her brand: Ô Retour du Marché.

Her direct channel

What Emansy runs for Ô Retour du Marché

Direct booking, on her own site

The Emansy widget is embedded on oretourdumarche.fr: customers pick a date, pay online and get their confirmation — on Fanny's brand, not a marketplace's.

Wecandoo, GetYourGuide and Funbooker in sync

Fanny also sells on marketplaces. Emansy consolidates every booking into one schedule: full sessions close everywhere, no overbooking.

🎁

Gift cards, cashed in immediately

The gift card is bought on her site; the recipient picks a date later — a direct sale, zero commission.

👥

Groups, hen parties and team building

Private-event requests come through a quote form — the B2B channel stays direct too.

The hybrid model, for real

Marketplaces to get discovered, her own brand to last

Ô Retour du Marché is listed on Wecandoo, GetYourGuide and Funbooker — that's where many customers first find the workshop, and those platforms charge their commission for that service. But regulars, word of mouth, gift cards and group requests go through her cooking classes in Lyon, booked and paid directly on her site.

It's exactly the model we lay out in our direct-channel guide: keep marketplaces for acquisition, and serve your loyal customers under your own brand — without paying commission on customers you earned yourself.
