Comments from our optional, anonymous surveys from our markets:

“You are doing such a good job and I am constantly inspired by all you are doing for the community!”

“This show is the best. Layout a little cramped but otherwise great, and I understand that we want the most artists possible to have this opportunity. Amazing job as usual y'all.”

“This market was the best experience from the perspective of a fellow vendor. Amazing job coordinating and communicating!!! I would love to do more events with Sagebrush!”

“Everything was wonderful!! Absolutely loved the market! Vendors and shoppers were so kind and friendly! Can’t wait for next year!”

“I had so much fun and I appreciate everyone being so supportive! I don’t usually bring my son but due to scheduling I could find a sitter! But everyone was so welcoming and sweet! I absolutely want to update my application and add more days! I just can’t seem to find my form! But I was amazing! Thank you so much!”

“Love Sagebrush and I love the Holiday Market! It's easily one of my favorite markets I do during the year. :)”

“Love being included in your events. You give a shit and it shows!”

“The market went amazing. One thing i noticed was that i only had a volunteer check on me once near the very end. I get it, it was so busy, but there were a few times i had to leave my stall unmanned, but watched by a neighbor, to use the bathroom. Also one suggestion would to maybe put arrows on the floor and try to encourage a flow of traffic in one direction because there was a lot of clogging in the corners. But also it’s a small space and hard to control. Other than that i had an amazing time and would love to do it again!”

“The market is always wonderful to attended. I feel comfortable and secure. I’d love the market to be slightly longer in the summer when the weather permits, but I know that’s difficult while also managing the shop I’m sure. Either way I’m happy with it’s current length as well.”

“Thank you so much for organizing! I thought that the array of artists was wonderful, and it was the perfect amount of vendors. The traffic flow worked out and there were unique artists displaying a huge range of products and art styles. There was definitely a community and collaborative feel to the event. Hugely impressed and made almost as much in sales as I did in 2 days at Wintry Market.. hugeee success! Thank you thank you”

“I absolutely loved this market. The vendors were all so kind, the audience was so supportive and showed up. I appreciated customers talking about coming from Sagebrush promoting the event, or seeing it online which tells me Jess went the extra mile with advertising. I appreciated the use of the artist buttons especially when networking with other vendors. Yes the venue was tight, but I didn’t feel uncomfortable with my space.”

“I was a first timer and had no idea what to expect. It was a really good sale day and also great for my exposer as a new maker in the area. Will definitely hope to be included again in the future!”

“I had a great time and would love to be back. You and the vendors themselves were all fun and genuinely kind. The atmosphere was very inclusive and comfortable and reminded me of the people and atmosphere back home (San Francisco) and all of this elevates any market for me. The setup and flow of the market itself was great and very easy. The placement of the coffee truck brought people to the back. It felt good being there and you should be proud of everything you are building! Appreciate you!”

“Thank you so much for all the work you put in to organizing this market! I’m really new to this world and all of your clear communication in your emails really put my mind at ease. You drew the crowd I really needed for my work. I was able to connect with people in a way that really struggled to in my non-juried local show this summer. It was so encouraging that I can have success locally. My work is kind of different and I have such a slow process that my price point is, at least currently, a little on the higher end. I think Sagebrush’s ethos drew the people who see and appreciate what I do. Your care really shows in all the decisions you make and the way you run your business. I appreciate you and everything you’re doing for your community 💕”

“Loved the smaller, more intimate feeling of this show, as compared to larger shows with 100+ vendors shoved into in a giant room. It is incredible that "doing good" is built into the show - support of the Intermountain Bird Observatory, experiencing the first-time vendor upstairs selling out of their goods (and that we all got to be a part of that), sustainability focused vendors all around, a required donated item to give for the raffle; all of these actions add to the mission and camaraderie of the group.”

“I made $1,270! Amazing one day sale! Surprisingly I didn’t make any sales until 9:57 and after 3:50pm I only sold to other vendors. It was a long day, I’m not sure, it seems like all shows have these dead spots at the start and end. If you made it shorter would that shorten the good window of sales? Hard to have any feedback with over $1k! Thank you!”

“Such a great market! I love that you do the raffles for a different non-profit every time. Thanks for organizing!”

“The diversity was beautiful! It means so much to me to get to participate in a market that is focused on sustainability, inclusion, and slow-made/handmade products. I loved the music variety and I thought the flow of traffic and booths was better than the first year; it felt more open. I didn't know which food trucks were going to be there, but maybe that's just me not paying attention to that detail. I would have liked to know more about the food/beverage options including how early/late they'd be serving.”

“So good! Got a lot of great feedback from friends who attended as well. Hope to return next year!”

“Best sales ever for any market I’ve done.”
