How do I become an Indie Untangled online Marketplace vendor?
Simply fill out the Vendor Submissions Form with your first post. Once you do, your shop will be listed in the column on the right side of the Marketplace. That’s it — you’re officially a vendor! The next time you create a post using the form, it will fall under the archives for your shop.
What should I post about?
You can post with all sorts of news: if you’re having a shop update or a sale, if you just released new colorways or a new pattern, if you’re opening sign-ups for a yarn club… the possibilities are endless. If you’re still unsure, check out the other posts in the Marketplace for inspiration.
If you don’t sell yarn, fiber or patterns, please relate your post and products to knitting or the fiber arts as much as possible. Are you a knitter/crocheter/spinner yourself? Are many of your customers? Does your product have a use for these crafts? Please mention it.
How do I get into the newsletter?
Links to all posts will be included in the weekly newsletter and What to Stash blog post. Posts with more than one image will include photos.
Generally, if you post on the Marketplace by 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, you will make it into that Friday’s newsletter and blog post. I make an editorial decision about what to lead with, but featured posts will receive more prominent placement. There is also an option to be the lead sponsor for the newsletter.
How do I become a vendor at the Rhinebeck Trunk Show?
Vendor applications for the Rhinebeck Trunk Show open in January for that year’s show. When open, the application is linked on the event page. If you would like to be notified when applications open, I recommend posting to the Indie Untangled Marketplace. You will automatically be signed up for the newsletter and be placed in a vendor group, and will receive an email when applications open.
Thanks so much for your interest and I look forward seeing your posts on Indie Untangled!
