Here’s all the information you need to plan your Croptoberfest events!
What are Croptoberfest events? Incredibly fun, Advisor-held, Home Office-supported customer crops. Each year, Creative Memories releases ideas and products available to Advisors to help with their Croptoberfest events (September-October).
Advisors use these exclusive products to create themed events and generate extra excitement with their customers. On this page, you will find resources for holding your Croptoberfest event(s). If this is your first time holding an event as a Creative Memories Advisor, you've come to the right place!
If you are having an in-person, virtual or hybrid event, submit your event so we can share it! We advertise the Find an Event page to customers — you’ll want to be on it, so new customers can find you.
Not sure what we mean by “submit your event"? Learn more here.
You — as an Advisor — will be able to get your hands on the Croptoberfest products EARLY! And there are two Croptoberfest Bundles: the Essential and Buy-It-All Bundle.
You can purchase any quantity of these Advisor-exclusive Croptoberfest Bundles starting on Monday, Aug. 11, and ending Tuesday, Aug. 19, at noon CT. The entire Croptoberfest collection will be available for purchase beginning on Aug. 25.
