Event planning guide

Beforehand

  • Solicit for volunteers / venders
  • Confirm our booth location, whether we can sell stuff at the table
  • Confirm we have transportation to/from the event (may need a van)
  • Inventory give-aways and make sure we have enough for the size of the event

If there is a vending opportunity that we open to members, members who intend to sell must help man the booth/table

Moving in and setting up

Checklist of things to pack/unpack - including

  • square reader / tablet if selling
  • collapsible chairs and hand cart
  • spinning wheel and freebies (stickers, coasters, pens etc)
  • a banner/sign of some sort
  • postcards

Afterwards

  • put away freebies/promo materials etc.
  • pop those booth photos in the Marketing assets drive folder

Future

Build a booth that attracts people! Like a laser cut silhouette of a sewing machine with a needle going up and down. A hammer that rotates and hits an anvil, or something.

Freebie ideas:

  • “I'm busy” headphone stickers
  • Dye sub microfiber cloth
  • Little small rulers
  • Gauge thickness checkers
  • Measuring square with fractional→decimal table
  • Slot together dinosaur or other skeleton things, metal or plastic etc.
  • CNC plasma keychain - bottle openers, multi tools etc

DIY claw game to make freebies last a bit longer
