CalmPrep · for the people who run markets

Show up like you've done this before.

The planning tool for vendors who take this seriously, however many markets a year that means.

A week in the life

Plan the week, pack the truck, learn from the day.

Plan

Know what to make before you start making.

Connect Square or add products by hand. We'll tell you how many of each to bring and how long prep will take.

Pearl St. Farmers Market prep sheet — five products listed with target, on-hand, and to-make quantities. Total production: 23.2 hours. One item already ready to pack.

Pack

A checklist that knows it's raining Saturday.

Weather-aware suggestions, last-minute adds, and categories that match how you actually load your truck.

Event prep checklist, four of twelve items checked. Weather-aware suggestions appear at the top: canopy weights for the outdoor event, rain cover for 40 percent precipitation. Items grouped by booth & display, inventory, payments, and personal comfort.

Learn

Come back next time knowing what worked.

Reflections surface on similar events later. Sales, sell-through, and that half-sentence note you scribbled about what to try next time — all right there.

Event recap with vendor reflections, three summary cards showing $757 revenue, 81 of 100 units sold, 81 percent sell-through, and a sales-by-product table totaling the day.

If you use Square

Bring your catalog and your sales history with you.

Connect Square and we'll pull your product catalog in one import. Bring in past event sales by date range and location, and the next plan uses what actually sold, not your best guess.

  • Connect in one tap. Disconnect any time.
  • Preview what's about to import before anything changes.
  • Works without Square, too. Add products by hand if that's easier.
Connect Square and plan your week

Every craft fair feels like starting over, even when it shouldn't.

The work isn't the problem.
It's trying to remember what inventory you brought to your booth, what sold, and what you meant to change last time.

01

Repacking without context

You load the same bins again, but can't remember what you actually used, or what stayed untouched last time.

02

Guessing what worked

What sold well last time? What didn't? You're making decisions from memory instead of experience.

03

Notes that never surface

You know you noticed something important at the last event. The weather, the setup that worked. But where did it go?

04

Decision fatigue before every event

Too many small choices pile up, right when your energy is already low.

“You're prepared.
Your past events just aren't helping you yet.”

Your past events should make your next one easier.

Whether it's a craft fair, farmers market, or pop-up shop, your events aren't isolated moments. They're connected, each one teaching you something useful for the next.

MyEventPrep remembers every event you run.

What you planned, and what actually happened.

You can see what you brought, what sold, and what you noticed, right when you're preparing again. No digging through notes. No relying on memory.

Plan each craft fair or market in one place, attach the products you plan to bring to your booth, and leave simple notes for yourself. When it's time to prepare again, everything you learned is already there.

You don't need to track everything.

You don't need perfect data.

Start with one event. Add what feels helpful.

Each time you come back, MyEventPrep quietly remembers more for you.

That's how prep gets easier.One event at a time.

The more you use it

Event prep that gets smarter with every market.

Less mental load. More confidence, every time.

One event, a start. Five, and the patterns begin to surface. Ten or more, and your next prep sheet already feels like yours.

Remember the people

Not just the sales.

The vendor next to you mentioned a show you should try. The one across the aisle traded tips on display. Six months later, you can't remember either name.

Vendor Neighbor Notesfixes that quietly. Fifteen seconds at the booth—snap a photo, first name, a tag or two—and it's saved. Your network grows without you having to think about it.

Not a CRM. Not a directory. A scrapbook of the people you've actually met.

A note from the founder

MyEventPrep is in early access. I'm building it with a small group of vendors who are kind enough to tell me what's broken, what's missing, and what they'd love next.

I didn't want to fake testimonials here. When real vendors say real things, those will land on this page. Until then, this note—and the product itself.

If you do one thing, download the free guide at the bottom of the page. If you want to try the app, it's free while we grow, and I read every email that comes in.

Frequently asked questions

What is MyEventPrep?
MyEventPrep is a calm, simple event-prep tool for makers and market vendors. It helps you organize products, track what sold, and prepare for craft fairs, pop-up markets, and farmers markets with less stress and more confidence.
Who is MyEventPrep for?
It's built for handmade makers, artists, food vendors, and small business owners who sell at craft fairs, farmers markets, pop-up shops, and other recurring events. If you do more than one event and want a calmer way to prepare, it's for you.
How is this different from a spreadsheet?
Unlike a spreadsheet, MyEventPrep is purpose-built for event vendors. It connects your products, events, and sales data automatically, surfaces notes from past events when you're preparing again, and gives you production planning tools — without formulas or manual copy-pasting.
Can I use this on my phone at the booth?
Yes. MyEventPrep works on phones, tablets, and laptops. Your event details, checklist, neighbor notes, and reflections also work offline — edits sync when you're back on wifi. Built for spotty venue signal and cold-fingered event days.

Prepare your next event—
calmly.

Start with one event. See how it feels. Build from there.
