CREATE MARKETPLACE APPLICATION

Create Marketplace offers a virtual retail space for CO.STARTERS graduates with products in the start-up or business phase who missed no more than two classes during their CO.STARTERS course and participated in the Celebration Night presentation. Vendors receive 100% of the proceeds from their sales. Applications for vendors will be accepted on a rolling basis. Vendors have full control over their virtual store front including pricing, shipping, marketing, and upkeep. Vendors must cover packaging and shipping costs.

How many temporary locations, such as pop-ups & markets, are you in now?*
Please count a recurring market (i.e. Pepper Place or Woodlawn Street Market) as a single location.
How many long-term locations, such as wholesale, retail, and galleries, are you in now?*
What are your average monthly sales?*
Describe the product or service you would like to sell via the virtual marketplace*
What are your current assumptions about your customer?*
Example: My typical customer is female, early 30's, married, with a young family. She loves Birmingham and owns a home in the city. She and her family eat and shop locally and spend their weekends exploring the city. She tries to gift locally but finds it hard to track down multiple artists and makers.
How is your customer's problem currently being solved?*
Example: She shops at weekend markets and the occasional pop-up, but she also enjoys the convenience of "big-box" stores.
In what ways do you currently collaborate with the CO.STARTERS community?*
What challenges are you currently facing as you grow your business?*
