- Stuebensvilles Ohio JunqueFest http://www.visitwebstercityiowa.com/junquefest.htm http://saveyour.town/pop-up-interview/ It’s not a hard idea. It’s a temporary, one day in and out, event. It builds enthusiasm. People will get excited and excitement is catching. It brings attention and interest downtown, right where you need it most. It supports your local businesses you already have, both the downtown businesses and the other businesses that participate as pop-ups. Even if you have no businesses now, it’s a way to give people a first start in business. They can create a pop-up store just for one day, and that might just give them a jump start to a bigger business idea. It works in any size town. It showcases your community.
- It pulls down barriers to entry so people can try a business idea for significantly less money. That means a failure can be a learning experience, not a financial catastrophe. It also means more people can participate. If it takes a few thousand dollars instead of tens of thousands to get started, more people can try. Businesses that could never afford their own storefront can afford a tiny business. Your artisans, crafters, food producers, and other tiny enterprises benefit from the added sales and exposure that couldn’t otherwise afford to access. This smaller business can be a stepping stone to a larger business because of what business owners learn and what they earn. It converts a nonproductive empty lot into a lively business place. It draws traffic to the area. Surrounding businesses benefit from that extra traffic. The outdoor public space can be a gathering spot, a recreation area, or any other public use of it. Give people a reason to stay and hang out. Tionesta Market Village even offers free wifi to encourage lingering. Participating tiny businesses can cooperate on shared advertising and promotion. They’ll all automatically benefit from shared exposure. Because you get a variety of different little businesses, they each draw different customers. It’s easy for those customers to discover the other tiny businesses, because they’re all together in the little village.
