Welcome back!

Now that you’ve been introduced to the Vendor Success Academy, it’s time to explore the place you’ll visit most often—your Vendor Dashboard.

Think of your dashboard as your market headquarters. It’s where you’ll find important announcements, quick links, and the tools you’ll use throughout the season.

The more familiar you become with your dashboard, the easier it will be to stay organized and connected.

Let’s take a look around together!

Why This Matters

Every successful market day begins before you arrive.

Your Vendor Dashboard is designed to help you stay informed, complete important tasks, and find the information you need without searching through emails or wondering where something is located.

By becoming comfortable with your dashboard, you’ll spend less time looking for information and more time focusing on your customers and your business.

A few minutes exploring today can save you time throughout the market season.

Curbie’s Business Insight

Every successful business has a routine.

Some owners check inventory first. Others review their calendar or customer orders.

At the market, your Vendor Dashboard can become part of that routine.

Before every market, take a minute to check your dashboard. You’ll quickly see announcements, reminders, and anything that needs your attention. That simple habit can help prevent surprises and keep your market day running smoothly.
