Basic stuff – Step 1 of 3

Business name *

A Vendor is a business, businesses tend to have names. Music groups, other cons and events also tend to have names.

Is the head of your business located inside of snohomish county? *

YUP
nope

This con is first aimed at the local community. All it will do is put you a little lower on the ad board.

Got an "official" website?

various forms of Ko-fi, coffee, pages count as well as that evil esty place. Patreon? whatever. – however, anybody give me a rick roll and its auto denied.

UBI

While this is not required, this will give you kudos. This means that you are actually legit with the state.

BBB

Yup
it’s to much

Contact name *

Dont worry, this isn’t something public, it’s so i know what to actually call you when we have to talk for whatever reason. It is required information for someone who wants a vendor table though.

Business email *

This is also going to be kept private, but we are going to need be able to communicate, there will be a few forms and stuff reguardless of choice.

Tell me about your thing! *

Give me a quick summary about your business. I’ll happily take links to websites and other things to learn more about your store. While I don’t foresee myself rejecting anybody, it might happen. And there is only going to be so many tables open for vendors to sell stuff.

Booth and Ad space, or just ad space? *

Booth and Ad space (higher of 50$ a day or 5% profit)

I want people to be able to look you up. You need to pick at least one, but pick everything that fits your business!

Oh, do you have tag suggestions! TELL ME!

If you choose to donate to the GoFundMe, your ad will get a color coded marker on your ad space. In person vendors will have rainbow markers, to make it easier for people to find them. *

Fair enough.

While the money amounts hasn’t been chosen yet, it will start at black for those who dont donate, then red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and finally purple. your physical ad will have a boarder, and the digital one stars. I do not plan on making it public. Please only donate if you want to support the cause, not because you want clout. I am willing to pay for this con out of pocket. –vendors who come as guest can request what is prob going to be pastel rainbow star on thier ads, as well as a tag added after the fact.

I will email you with a link to a follow up form after your business has been approved for ad space so you can submit your stuff as early as possible. You will also be expected to pay the $10 at that time. Table vendors will start being chosen by July 1st except for a few that are contributing to the con. *

Got it! I’ll check my email!

Questions/Suggestions?

btw, if you are located out of state and need to know before July first if you can have a table, tell me here and I will consider you asap!
