I'm applying for a spot at our local "Faire on the Square" and I can't figure out which catergory I fit under.

Am I a commercial business or a cottage industry?
Do I have a retail license #?
If I write them a check for an event in May, do they cash it right away?

As you can tell, I've never done one of these before!
 
You are a commerical business
Your local government might require you to have a business license, normally less than $20
And if you are paying for a booth they normally cash the check right away, they won't hold it till the event
 
I really appreciate the one I do. A spot for direct sales so it's not confusing. You may want to contact them and see what you need to do.
