Build a booth that works as hard as you do

PLUS, I’ll include exclusive access to my personal Pinterest boards—a 10-year curation of the most creative and high-converting booth ideas—at no extra cost.

WHAT'S INSIDE

You care about your product.

You’ve spent time refining it, sourcing it, pricing it, perfecting it. But if people walk past your booth without stopping, none of that work gets seen.

Most vendors don’t struggle because their product is weak.
They struggle because their booth doesn’t communicate fast enough.

At a busy market, shoppers decide in seconds:

What is this?
Is it for me?
Is it worth stopping?

The Ultimate Market Booth Glow-Up helps you design a booth that answers those questions clearly and includes:

  • A quick booth assessment... Identify what’s working, what’s not, and what changes will make the biggest impact on your setup and sales.

  • Award-winning booth strategies...I’ll teach you the proven principles of retail merchandising, branding, and set design that make your booth impossible to ignore—no fluff, just real-world strategies.

  • A step-by-step framework ... Allowing you to design a strategic, high-impact, standout booth that attracts and converts casual browsers into buyers.

  • A complete collection of high-converting booth layouts, branding ideas, and merchandising hacks.

  • A process to help you launch with confidence… Walk into your next market knowing your booth will sell for you—no more guesswork, stress, or lost sales!


    …As simple as that!

  • My personal Pinterest boards—a 10-year curation of the BEST booth designs, signage ideas, and layout solutions to inspire your ultimate glow-up.

  • Access to a private community of vendors implementing The Ultimate Market Booth Glow-Up together, so you’re never alone in this journey.

  • And MUCH, much more…

YES, BUT WHAT WILL I LEARN?

When you go through this course, you start by looking at your booth honestly.

  • What is working?

  • What feels cluttered?

  • Where are people getting confused?

  • What are you over-explaining because the setup isn’t doing its job?

That clarity alone changes things.

From there, you learn how to think like a merchandiser and a set designer.

You’ll learn how to guide the shopper’s eye through your booth, create a clear focal point, group products so they make sense at a glance, and place signage where it actually gets read. Most importantly, you’ll make your value visible before you ever start explaining it.

Then you apply it directly to your 10x10 — not in theory, but in your real space, with your real products. You adjust placement, simplify where needed, and strengthen what is already working.

You walk away with a clear way to evaluate and improve your booth every season.

This isn’t a one-time makeover. It’s a framework you can return to again and again.

Vendors who apply this approach often tell me the same things.

  • People stop more.

  • Conversations feel easier.

  • Customers ask clearer questions.

  • They feel more confident walking into market.

One vendor shared that shoppers began approaching her booth for conversation instead of just grabbing a sample. Another said it was the most lucrative market of her season.

The shift wasn’t magic.

It was clarity.

From The Desk Of Kelly McManus

Dear Market Vendors,

We all go to market using the same essential pieces: a tent, a backdrop, some tables, a few crates—and our product.

So why do some booths sell out while others get passed by?

I asked myself the same question as I built my booth in 2016. As a vendor like you, I scrapped together what I could find, here and there. I bought a used cooler and freezer from Facebook Marketplace. I found props at thrift stores. I even used shower curtains for decoration. My backdrop? I hung it on a salvaged pipe I pulled from my garage.

In the end, I probably had the same amount of scrappy, DIY “things” as any other vendor. But the difference wasn’t in the stuff—it was in the story.

See I had 30 years of branding, retail and set design experience to pull from. I knew how to take those scrappy pieces and turn them into something people couldn’t walk past. And once I started applying retail merchandising techniques and storytelling to my booth setup, everything changed.

In just 8 weeks, we sold over 5,000 packs of fresh noodles. Over three seasons, we pulled in over $250,000 from Farmers Markets alone. 

Why? Because people didn’t just buy the noodles—they bought the experience. My booth made them stop, linger, and engage.

That’s what I want for you.

If you want to turn your booth into a magnet for customers, stand out in a crowded market, and finally see consistent sales...

If you’re ready to have a booth that does the selling for you—without stress, guesswork, or expensive trial and error...

Then these courses are made for you.

It’s the exact system I’ve taught to other vendors—people like Tasya:

Tasya was passionate about her handmade products, but her booth didn’t reflect the quality of her brand. She struggled to attract customers and knew she was leaving money on the table. I gave her the formula, and in a short time, she had a booth that truly embodied her brand. The results? More sales. Bigger retail accounts. And a business that finally wowed customers.

So I packaged everything I taught her, putting it into ✨ The Ultimate Booth Glow-Up ✨

And I made it affordable enough so any vendor could finally get the sales they deserve.

And the results?

“My booth became a living, breathing example of my brand. Every time people interact with my products, they’re wowed. We've improved sales and even landed major accounts!” — Tasya K.

“Kelly completely transformed our small family business. Best decision we’ve ever made—we even sold the company! She helped us build a brand that felt authentic and fresh.” — Joe S.

“This course has HUGE ripple effects for makers, farmers AND the market as a whole. Branding their booth is low hanging fruit, and it doesn’t take a huge amount of effort to reflect who they are and show huge impact. Students were surprised and thrilled by the transformation—the results far exceeded expectations!” —Martha A., Farmers Market Director

This isn’t just a course. It’s a system built from real-life market wins—and it’s yours for the taking.

Ready to glow up your booth and change the way customers see (and shop) your brand?

Let’s get started!

Can't wait to see you inside!
