Your Vendor Profile

Welcome to Module 2!
Now that you’re comfortable finding your way around the Vendor Portal, it’s time to focus on something even more important—your Vendor Profile.
Your profile is often the first introduction customers have to your business. It tells them who you are, what you create, and why they should stop by your booth.
Every business has a story, and your Vendor Profile is where that story begins.
Let’s build a profile that helps customers get to know you before they even arrive at the market.
Why This Matters
Customers are naturally drawn to businesses they know and trust.
A complete Vendor Profile helps shoppers discover your products, learn about your business, and feel connected before they ever visit your booth. Think of your profile as your digital storefront. Just as you arrange your booth to welcome visitors, your Vendor Profile welcomes people online.
The more complete and inviting your profile is, the easier it is for customers to find you, remember you, and look for your booth on market day.

Creating a Vendor Profile That Works for You

Let’s Do It Together
Let’s build your Vendor Profile.

Curbie’s Business Insight
People don’t just buy products—they buy from people they trust.
A thoughtful Vendor Profile helps customers understand who you are and what makes your business unique. It gives them a reason to visit your booth instead of simply walking by.
You don’t need a long story or fancy words. Be genuine, be clear, and let your passion for what you do shine through. Authenticity is one of the strongest ways to build lasting customer relationships.
