A lot of us didn't have growth in our business this year at ASM. So adding more of the same 'vendors to the mix will probably decrease our incomes even more. We want the farmer vendors at the ASM to be the ones with the very best product and ones that will be able to attend all the markets. The whole idea behind-the market in the first place was to make the farmers sustainable, not provide cheap products. ~If we add a bunch of new farmer vendors to the mix, it will not make it worth any of our while to be there. I have seen this happen with a number of markets. We want to keep ASM a vibrant market, not a ghost town. Sue Whittlesey n ~ _, ;. . Market Survey - CCLC Cold Mountain Craft, Trevor A. Washko 1. Have your sales improved from last year? My sales improved slightly. Overall, I'd say they were right in line with my previous seasons at the Aspen Market. 2. Was the market successful for you? Yes. 3. Any suggestions to improve the market. Market is great! 4. Do you need or would you like more than 10 feet. If so explain why? A few feet between booths may allow me to create more storefront space if I chose, however I would NOT use more than one tent. 5. How much space would you like? I have shared a booth for 5 years. I could benefit from having a booth to myself which might allow me to set up a work bench and display more items. I am continually adding more product items. 6. Have you had repeat customers weekly? No. However, I did have many repeat customers from previous years. Weekly repeats are not to be expected with my product. 7. Were the majority of your sales from tourists? 80% Tourists/20% Locals 8. Are you in favor of expansion onto Hyman to generate more traffic and income for you? A little more space might allow everyone a better opportunity to display their items, however it is hard to say if traffic or income would increase by adding a block. 9. Agriculture vendors -can you expand your product variety inventory if we expand to Hyman? N/A Comments: My only suggestion. would be to try a winter market ~ minus the veggies. I suggest a pilot of the 3 Saturdays in early December, before Xmas. I imagine: Santa Claus booth for the kids, carolers, gift- wrapping booth sponsored by a local non-profit, maybe a couple of patio-style fire pits to roast some marshmallows on the corners. I have participated in a December version of the Minturn Farmer's Market for a few years and it has been a great success. Layer up. Put on your Sorels and have fun. There is a great need for dependable/successful Holiday Bizarre-like events in the valley. Market Survey - CCLC 1. Have your sales improved from last year? No they were down almost 10% from last year. 2. Was the market successful for you? The market is a great market for us- even with sales down this year- we would still say it was a success. 3. Any suggestions to improve the market. Everything I always here from. my people who do the market think is goes very smoothly and is run very well. 4. Do you need or would you like more than 10 feet. If so explain. why? No our current space is good. 5. How much space would you like? 6. Have you had repeat customers weekly? Yes 7. Were the majority of your sales from tourists? I am not sure. 8. Are you in favor of expansion onto Hyman to generate more traffic and income for you? Always in favor of generating more traff c and income. 9. Agriculture vendors -can you expand your product variety inventory if we expand to Hyman? Comments: We at Haystack Mountain Goat cheese really enjoy doing the Aspen market- we always have such great feedback and response to our cheeses- the people in Aspen. are also so appreciative of us being there- which is great since it is quite the drive for us. We look forward to seeing you next year. Market Survey - CCLC 1. Have your sales improved from last year? 2. Was the market successful for you? -~ c~,x.~, ~,.. 1~~~~r- 3.

Have your sales improved from last year? A bit maybe but mostly the same as 07 2. Was the market successful for you? Yes, about the same as last year 3. Any suggestions to improve the market. More emphasis on recyclable/compostable bags, forks, etc... Many vendors did not comply. Let's walk the talk better there 4. Do you need or would you like more than 10 feet. If so explain why? Same as this year - 20ft 5. How much space would you like? Same as this year - 20Ft 6. Have you had repeat customers weekly? Yes, many loyal customers. Some even come to the ranch during the week and after market closes in October 7. Were the majority of your sales from tourists? Year-round locals are 50%, Season brings in second homeowners at 35%, then maybe tourists are next 8. Are you in favor of expansion onto Hyman to generate more traffic and income for you? Does this mean more growers? I hope not. Last year we added two new organic produce growers and it is about right as it is now. More would effect sales and hurt those who are in already, I think 9.

Comments: Sorry that we missed this year, next year we will give you notice of two art show that we will most likely do, and ho 1 Market Survey - CCLC 1. Have your sales improved from last year? I changed from weekly to biweekly, but if I extrapolated from my numbers, I held steady but dial. not improve. 2. Was the market successful for you? Yes 3. Any suggestions to improve the market. Finish second weekend in October, make sure ALL crafts are really done in town/the valley. We had .Denver vendors this year? 4. Do you need or would you like more than 10 feet. If so explain why? I' m fine 5. How much space would you like? n/a 6. Have you had repeat customers weekly? Without question, both local and across the country 7. Were the majority of your sales from tourists? 60-70% tourists, 30-40% local 8. Are you in favor of expansion onto Hyman to generate more traffic and income for you? No-I think more competition may result in less income, and it would be a bit overwhelming to the shopper. 9. Agriculture vendors -can you expand your product variety inventory if we expand to Hyman? Comments: The running of the market is excellent. Market Survey - CCLC 1. Have your sales improved from last year? Yes, in part due to better marketing, people knowing us, and being allowed to bring more diverse produce, in addition to the flowers was the major reason. 2. Was the market successful for you? YES 3. Any suggestions to improve the market. Shorten hours at the end of the season, the return are not worth the time, 10-2 in October should be enough time to make sales for everyone 4. Do you need or would you like more than 10 feet. If so explain why? Yes, we could use ten more feet to increase the amount and diversity of produce we bring, and make more room for the flowers which are a beautiful attraction to the market! 5. How much space would you like? 40' 6. Have you had repeat customers weekly? Yes, lots 7. Were the majority of your sales from tourists? Both...not always sure who is `local' or not 8. Are you in favor of expansion onto Hyman to generate more traffic and income for you? 9. Agriculture vendors -can you expand your product variety inventory if we expand to Hyman? Yes, we can bring more produce, as long as there is not too many new produce vendors to water that market down.

As far as expansion. I feel if we expand, it would be best to use that space to incorporate more community ideas. 1) Tent with an art station for kids while their parents shop, i would be willing to help find people to run that. 2) Another tent for local non-profits to advertise. 3) If we do have vendors, something unique. 4) More food, something interesting. 5) More space for the existing vendors, just a little. I do not have the space problem personally at my booth, but I know other people do. 6) Organize a brainstorming committee to really make an expansion successful and the market more unique. I am willing to be on that committee. I also feel we should have a person who represents the crafts people out there. One or two people who can go to the meetings and keep the other vendors in the loop re: feedback. What do you think? Someone who acts as a liason, and takes the pressure off of you being bombarded with phone calls. I hope these quick ideas help. Let me know how the meeting goes. Off to a show.
