KEY QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN CHOOSING WHICH SHOWS ARE RIGHT FOR YOU
The following is a list of questions to ask when determining whether a show is the right marketing tool for your work. In many cases, the answers may be found within the application for a show. If not, call and ask! When in doubt, try to visit a show before you apply. Please note that there is no endorsement implied by inclusion of listings or advertising in this publication.
How many years has the show been in existence?
How many years has the show organizer been in business?
Are the same people organizing the show as did last year?
What changes are being made from how the show was organized last year?
What was the attendance last year?
What is the advertising budget?
Where do you advertise?
How many vendors return each year?
How many vendors have booked spaces already?
What categories/media of craft are accepted?
What is not accepted?
How many vendors are accepted in my category?
What is the location like (town, city)?
What is the venue like (hall, park)?
Is the show held in several buildings - is one more desirable, better situated?
Is there plenty of parking?
Are there other events going on during the craft show (antiques, flea market, music festival, etc.). If so, are the craft booths in a separated area or integrated?
Have you ever had to cancel the show? If so, why?
Are you on site at all times if I have a problem to discuss?
What are your policies on booth rentals (non-refundable, notice of cancellation, etc.)?
Who are your sponsors, and how long have you worked with these sponsors?

20 THE ANNUAL CRAFT SHOW BOOK 21
PRESENTED BY
Dear Vendor:
On behalf of the Rotary Club of Simcoe, it is my pleasure to welcome you back to the Simcoe Rotary
Friendship Festival (SRFF), August 3-5, 2013. The festival’s organizing committee has worked diligently
since the conclusion of the 2012 to make improvements that will ensure a better all-around experience for
our vendors.
As an organizing committee, we are well aware that when a vendor participates in our event, it's because of
the commercial benefits and opportunity to earn a living. We do want to remind you that your participation
also helps the Rotary Club of Simcoe and many other charitable groups with important fundraising initiatives
and strengthening our sense of community as a whole. On behalf of the Rotary Club of Simcoe, thank you
for continuing to participate in our event, and helping us grow and succeed.
I'm looking forward to welcoming you back again for another fun, prosperous festival.
Sincerely,
Tom O’Neill
Vendor Committee Chair
Why choose the Simcoe Rotary Friendship Festival?
Participating in the SRFF as a vendor is a worthwhile investment. In 2012, visitors were surveyed about
about their spending habits and what attractions most interest them. The survey showed that 58% of visitors
have a household income of $50,000 or more; 76% of respondents spend at least $20 at the festival; 39%
spend $50 or more; and 33% come specifically because of vendors.
Based on annual attendance of approximately 30,000 visitors, we estimate that at least $450,000 gets spent
at the event over three days on food, drinks, and merchandise, and raffles. There is money to be made!
What’s new in 2013?
Overnight security will be added to help protect vendor tents. Organizers have also worked with Norfolk
County's by-law department and elected council to ensure that last year's parking debacle is not repeated.
The club intends to reconfigure the festival's layout and add a midway in the centre of the park, move the
beer garden, and add a second stage to the south side of the festival in what has recently been the arts and
crafts section. The club is also dissolving the division between the arts and crafts and commercial vendors
in an attempt to circulate more shoppers to all participants. There will be no increase in vendor fees in
2013. We have also simplified our application and payment processes to be more convenient.
