Ep 284: Moving Your Market


Listen Later

Moving a market is not as simple as scooting a tent or two down the street (not that scooting any tents is without drama.) Sometimes you lose part of your site to a construction project, sometimes a conflicting annual event happens and you have to move the entire market for a day. Finding a new site that can accommodate an established event is a puzzle. You know where the driveways and trees and giant dumpsters are at your current location. What surprises will your replacement venue hold? And how will your shoppers and vendors know where to go? Listen in as Catt and Brijet discuss the ways they've found to ease the pain as much as possible, while you're away from your home sweet home site, with tips on: • Identifying a replacement site • Surveying neighboring businesses and residents • Mapping to minimize disruption for your vendors • What wedding seating plans and market maps have in common • Timing your announcement to avoid confusion • Keeping regular shoppers in the loop and attracting new ones This episode of Tent Talk is supported by Square, helping farmers, vendors and market managers process payments and invoicing in the tents and at the desk.
