managemymarket
for markets of all sizes
The Days Before managemymarket
Problems With The Old Way
• The “clipboard situation”
• Vendor information is easily misplaced
• Manager gets frustrated, loses energy, and leaves
• Next manager has to start from scratch
The Goal: Make Life Easier
• Take the burden of data management off the shoulders of hard- working market managers
• Make day-to-day (and year-to-year) operations run more smoothly
The Idea: Eliminate Paperwork
• Take the entire vendor management process (registration, scheduling, billing and reporting) and put it online.
• Completely eliminate data entry for the market manager.
Organize Everything Electronically
• Vendor applies online• Manager gets an email• Manager can review
applications from any computer
• Vendors get notified of the market’s decision via email, immediately
Vendors Find This Easier, Too
“The online application process was very painless. I simply filled out a general profile, selected your market and applied. It was very easy. Much easier than other applications I've done.”-Vendor in Colorado, in an email to a market manager
What About Vendors Without Internet?
• They can call us, and we’ll input their info for them
• They can fill out a paper version, and the market can enter their info
Over 1000 Vendors in Oregon
• Since many markets in Oregon are already using managemymarket, some of your vendors are already registered.
• No learning curve!
Market Managers Love managemymarket!
“I was terrified of losing my vendor mailing list. Now I know that it is safe and secure, should my office burn down or some other tragedy occur.”-Ginger Rapport, Manager of the Beaverton Farmers Market
“Without managemymarket, we would never have been able to open a new market in a new location in such a short period of time.”-Jaret Foster, Senior Manager of the Portland Farmers Market
