The operations brain for handmade sellers working 15-50 craft fairs, farmers markets, and artisan shows per year. Running a craft fair business at scale means tracking 30+ show applications with jury deadlines, packing the right inventory for each booth size, knowing which shows are worth the $400 booth fee and which to drop, logging sales for clean tax reporting, and never arriving with 3 units of your bestseller. FairMaster manages all of it. ## What's included - **Show application pipeline** — every show from first research through completed event; jury deadlines, acceptance status, booth fee due dates, waitlist position surfaced automatically - **Per-product inventory planning** — quantity recommendations for each show based on your actual historical sales at similar events (holiday market vs spring outdoor vs weekly farmers market each get calibrated targets) - **Booth fee ROI calculation** — automatic net profit after booth fee, travel, lodging, supplies; see which shows earn $40/hr and which earn $4/hr; flag shows declining 3 consecutive years - **Packing checklists** — booth-size aware (6x6 through 10x30), venue-type aware (outdoor tent, indoor, gallery); nothing left in the van - **Sales log + tax records** — gross sales, cash/card split, sales tax collected, mileage after every show; year-end summary gives clean Schedule C numbers + 1099-K reconciliation note - **Restock alerts** — agent knows current inventory + upcoming show schedule; when a product trends toward stockout, you hear about it now, not the day before - **Application essay reuse** — your proven "about the artist" + "process description" stored permanently; pasted into every new application with light personalization - **Show-day metrics** — foot traffic, conversion rate, average ticket per show feed back into ROI scoring - **Multi-medium support** — ceramics, jewelry, candles, fiber, woodworking, soap, paper goods all get appropriate restock + display guidance ## Limitations - **Not a POS** — pairs with Square / Clover for actual checkout transactions - **Not a payment processor** — calculates sales tax + records receipts; collection via Square / Stripe / cash - **Not a website builder** — pairs with Shopify / Etsy for between-show direct sales - **Not legal counsel** — sales tax + 1099-K guidance is starter; high-revenue makers (>$50K/yr) need a CPA - **U.S.-tax-focused** — Canadian + UK + EU artisan market sales tax structures adapt ## Best fit Ceramicists, jewelers, candle makers, fiber artists, woodworkers, soap makers, greeting card designers, and any maker who takes their show income seriously — 15-50 shows/year, $20K-$150K annual show revenue. Especially valuable for makers at the transition from hobby to serious business: the ROI calculation typically reveals 20-30% of shows are losing money once travel + lodging are honestly accounted, and the inventory restock alerts prevent the single biggest revenue leak (showing up to your best show with no stock of your bestseller).
