Important Changes

Hello Everyone

I hope everyone is ready for Christmas and enjoying the lead up to the Big Day.

After receiving feedback from a few different people I have decided to reduce the cost of a stall at the first Piccadilly Market to be held on March 28th 2010 at Deakin Waterfront. I am reducing the participation price from $330 to $260 which is a significant saving, and one which I hope will attract even more traders.

I am so passionate about bringing this market to Geelong and will do whatever I can to get it off the ground. I am committed to making this an amazing up market event that has not been seen in Geelong before. One that is successful for all of us on the day and in the future. I believe this start off participation price will entice even more of the high calibre traders that we are targeting and will ensure success for the future of Piccadilly Market.

My team and I have some amazing marketing ideas that will get everyone wanting to see what it’s all about. If you have seen today’s Geelong News you will notice the first in a series of stories on the market and its place on the Geelong Event Calendar for 2010.

To all the amazing designers and traders I have received applications from already, think of the reduction in cost as an early Christmas present. To everyone else I urge you to get your applications in and not miss a chance to be a part of this unique opportunity. The interest is high and securing your spot at this premier event is paramount. Due to this change and that someone seems to have magically taken a few weeks out of my diary I am extending the application date to Friday 8th January 2010.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any further questions.
