WHAT WE WOULD LIKE FROM YOU:
A beautifully curated booth. Please no plastic table cloths or artificial floral arrangements. Table linens must reach the floor on all sides and extra inventory stored discretely, neatly, and out of the way.
You will promote the market on your social media, using the provided marketing materials that will be sent via email and available in the Vendor Access area.
LED lighting is strongly recommended as the Filberg Centre is dimly lit and the ballroom does not have natural light.
High quality, professional looking photographs for marketing.
Use the 2 free tickets for the market as an advertising tool.
We provide an event commercial liability policy, however the venue requires each vendor to also have a commercial liability insurance plan. (Many of your business policies already include this, please check with your provider). As an alternative, vendor insurance can be purchased through Duuo for at a very affordable rate - a direct link will be sent at a later date.
15 smaller swag bag items that are in keeping with your brand aesthetic and quality. Please package these in small boxes or in a way that feels like a gift for the recipient (not loose or unprotected) and clearly shows your brand name (ie. art card in a paper sleeve with branded sticker, earrings, keychains, or fragile pieces in small boxes etc.). If you want to gift a small accompaniment piece to your work (like a honey dipper if you're a potter, this is ok too. Please add a branded tag and secure in a box or form of wrapping). This is required in order to partake in the market as it is a key component in advertising and drawing a crowd.
​
We have the opportunity to work with an amazing local photographer to create this year's LOOKBOOK which will showcase all of the makers products ahead of the market. This will be a styled catalog with carefully arranged group photos and individual shots. Each maker is being asked to loan 1-3 of their most loved, most popular, most special items/products/pieces for this photo shoot which will be returned. All images will be released to the makers for their own use. Photo shoot dates will be announced in early summer. This is required in order to partake.
​
​
Along with all of the extensive advertising, we are counting on all of our amazing vendors to help make this a successful show. The more you can involve yourself with marketing, by being active on social media, through your own website and mailing lists and getting the word out, the more successful we will all be together!
As this is our first time hosting this particular market, at this venue, it is possible for unexpected things to happen. We will absolutely do our best to make every aspect run smoothly but please be patient if complications arise. We will be taking note for the next year of any things that need adjusting and would very much like to hear from you after the show. Our main focus is to have a successful event and happy vendors and shoppers. We've worked really hard to create a market brand with good advertising that will speak to the right demographic and encourage people to attend; however we cannot guarantee attendance and sales volumes.
​
We would like to see a positive, kind and community minded attitude from all vendors.
