Original Idea

A maker selling at markets could use a simple “was this event worth doing?” tracker: stall fee, travel, stock sold and hours worked. A market organiser could offer it to exhibitors under a partnership with you. I would say that overall it fits your export-based approach and somehow gives sellers a concrete decision to make: which events deserve another booking?
Love this one, thanks. Makers really do guess at which events are worth rebooking. I'm going to build it: stall fee, travel, stock sold, hours worked, and a simple profit per hour so you can compare events side by side. Do you run markets or sell at them? If it's useful to you I'll send it over free once it's done.

Quick update: it's built! It tracks stall fee, travel, stock, card fees and hours, then shows real profit, profit per hour and a Rebook, Maybe or Skip verdict for each event. Every visit to the same market rolls up so you can compare them. If you suggested it because it's something you'd use, I'd love for you to try it. Just say the word and I'll send you a copy free. You saw the need for it, so any feedback or ideas for making it better are very welcome.
