Booth Boost Vendor Program

Booth Boost

Share your own ticket code with your followers. The vendors who bring in the most visitors get boosted on MTP's social channels.

What it is

Booth Boost is how Melrose Trading Post vendors bring their own people to the market, and get promoted for it. Each vendor gets a personal ticket code and link. When your followers use it, they save on admission, and we can see exactly how many tickets came from you.

Then we return the favor. The more tickets your code brings in, the more we feature your booth on MTP's Instagram and TikTok.

The more vendors who share, the bigger the Sunday crowd for everyone. And every ticket funds free arts education for Fairfax High students.

How it works

  1. Sign up below

    You'll see your code and link right away.

  2. We switch your code on

    MTP sets up your code in our ticketing system and emails you when it's live.

  3. Share it before Sunday

    Put your code in posts, stories, and your link-in-bio. Your followers enter it at checkout.

  4. Get boosted

    Each month we'll send a recap of how many tickets your code brought in, and the top vendors get featured on our social channels.

What's in it for you

A reason to visit you

Your followers get 50% off an online ticket, and MTP covers the discount.

Real numbers

A monthly count of tickets sold with your code, so you know your posts are working.

Social spotlights

The vendors whose codes bring in the most visitors each month get featured on MTP's Instagram and TikTok.

Boosted posts

With your permission, MTP may pay to promote your posts about the market to more LA locals.

Sharing that works

  • Post Thursday through Saturday, when people are making Sunday plans.

  • Show what you're bringing. A new batch of rings, a rack of fresh vintage, a candle being poured. Specific beats general.

  • Put your code in the caption and your link on a story sticker, and tag @melrosetradingpost so we can reshare.

  • Add it to your link-in-bio so it's always one tap away.

  • Mention the mission. People like knowing their ticket supports arts programs at Fairfax High.

    Questions

    Does it cost anything to join?

    No. Booth Boost is free for all MTP vendors.

    Does the discount come out of my sales?

    No. MTP covers the ticket discount. Your booth sales aren't affected.

    How do I get featured on MTP's social channels?

    Share your code often. Each month we feature the vendors whose codes brought in the most tickets.

    Can my code be used at the door?

    No. The discount only applies to tickets bought online with your code. Tickets bought at the door are full price and can't be tracked, so point people to your link.

    Can I change my code?

    Yes. Email us before your code goes live, or ask us to swap it later.

    Can I share my code in person?

    Absolutely. Put it on a sign at your booth or on your business cards so shoppers can share it with friends for next Sunday.

    • The Yellow Tent Wait List is now only for Permanent Vendors and Registered Vendors selling Category 1 Merchandise.

    • To manage the service line, we use a text message based program called WaitWhile.

    • Sunday Booking Appointments are available as a phone call or in-person conversation.

    • Category 1 Merchandise selling vendors may book or reserve spaces for any Sunday through the end of the month.

    • Category 2 Merchandise selling vendors can no longer book or reserve a space in advance for the 2nd Sunday of the month.

    • Vendors who want to have their appointment in person, but are not selling that day, need to pay for a ticket or get on a vendor’s guest list who is selling that day enter to the market.
