Main Street Santa Monica Booth Space

I'm pretty psyched...I got some space down at the weekend fair on Maine Street in Santa Monica for the following weekend (10th-11th) and into the future. There's a big waiting list and it's not cheap to get in there, and it's always packed with buyers, but it happened so quickly that now I have to scramble to get 1 or 2 jewelry designers on board with us to take advantage of the opportunity to put their stuff there. Anyone interested in talking to me about it?

About Me

I have always been an artist...sketching, painting, wood working, cross-stitching...you name it. But now I walk the middle of the road between business and creative worlds, as marketer, my desire being to pull the 2 together in order that we all achieve greater heights of success. Come co-create with Creative Endeavors!

About the Company
Creative Endeavors has its finger on the pulse of the market, often knowing two to three years in advance what will be the next hot concepts, products, taglines and images that people will consume. The past several years we have been investing in a “Consulting Partners Program” to work with artists and designers, to put together a team to churn ideas and create abundance together. Our vision is that one day all our designers and business team (marketing, sales, PR, manufacturers, etc.) will all sit around a conference table to toss around ideas that we can then quickly get to market.

How We Work
We provide to the designer the “signature piece” concept for the collection we are developing jointly and with other artists. The signature pieces may incorporate any or all of the following: jewelry, leather, active wear, lingerie, accessories/gifts, health/beauty, toys, tees, denim and culinary. The signature pieces, designed and thus owned by Creative Endeavors, embody the message/theme that we desire to relay to the market, with the artist receiving a % of all signature pieces sold.

If they would like to expand their opportunity for greater income, we provide opportunity to co-create with Designer-Licensees of the brand that we developed (for which we are creating the collection and its brand extensions, with their collections), where they can receive a greater return. Additionally, they have opportunity to produce limited edition pieces, raising their profile in the marketplace.

We need artists and designers of all types to produce with us signature pieces that fit within the brand (theme) of campaigns (messages to the market) that we develop.

The Artist/Designer:
-may or may not work currently with a mass manufacturer
-have the ability to create samples of products to our specifications (with some leeway for your creativity to make it better) to become a signature piece of a collection
-may want to develop alternate examples of the signature piece to develop the collection with us
-have the ability to produce at least 100 pieces independently, if want to receive limited edition sales
-have the financial ability to become an Affiliate partner (fewer benefits, but are connected to us for promotions, growth opportunity and sales), or Designer-Licensee (where you receive a return on all mass production, limited edition sales), or Brand Owner (where you make money off all sales under the brand).

We provide:
Concept and image development, marketing (co-operative advertising campaigns, in-store and public relations promotions), product and merchandise development, as well as partnership development and referral income to the partner.
