Build a Vendor and Permit Dashboard for Street Fair Organizers

1. 1

   Fix vendor intake first

   Applications, category limits (only so many kettle corn booths), jury review, acceptance, and online payment in one flow. This alone replaces the coordinator's worst spreadsheet.

2. 2

   Collect the documents that bite

   Insurance certificates, food handler permits, and sales tax IDs, with expiry checks and automatic nag emails. Fairs get shut down over missing paper, not missing funnel cake.

3. 3

   Map the booths visually

   A drag-and-drop street map with power access, corner pricing, and vendor assignments. The map is also the day-of answer sheet for every 'where do I set up?' text.

4. 4

   Track the city's checklist

   Special event permit, street closure, fire review, noise variance, with deadlines worked backward from event day. Templates per city grow into a real data asset.

5. 5

   Price per event

   Seasonal organizers hate annual software contracts. A per-event fee scaled by vendor count matches how they budget, and a multi-event discount catches the recurring fairs.

6. 6

   Grow through organizer networks

   Main street associations, chambers, and festival coordinator groups share tools and war stories. One smooth fair becomes the reference that books the next ten.
