Launching Through the Grit: Simplicity with Sarah Holtz + Vendor Savvy Course Now Available for Small Business Vendors

If you're a small business owner looking to feel more confident and organized at in-person vendor events, you're in the right place.

After five months of creating, refining and building through passion, the messy middle and some obstacles of my personal life — including undergoing chemotherapy and beating cancer — I’m beyond proud to officially launch my new business: Simplicity with Sarah Holtz, a space designed to empower entrepreneurs with vendor event guidance, clarity, and confidence.

This moment is more than a business launch. It’s a celebration of resilience, purpose, and the deep desire to help others succeed through simplicity.

And with it, comes the long-awaited debut of my signature offer: the Vendor Savvy Course.


What Is Vendor Savvy?

Vendor Savvy is a comprehensive, 6-module course designed specifically for small business owners who want to elevate their vendor booth experience. Whether you're preparing for your very first pop-up market or looking to streamline your current systems after countless events, this course will walk you through the entire process:

  • ✅ How to find the right vendor events

  • ✅ What to prepare before the event

  • ✅ Day-of setup and sales strategies

  • ✅ Post-event reflection and growth

  • ✅ Customer connection and follow-up

  • ✅ Packing up and prepping for the next event

This is not just another course with endless text. Vendor Savvy is both auditory and visually friendly, including audio lessons, visuals on each page and printable/digital worksheets— because learning should be inclusive and accessible to everyone, no matter how you absorb information!


Why I Created This Course

I’ve spent the last few years as both a vendor and an educator, and I saw a gap — so many small business owners feel overwhelmed by the logistics of vendor events, from finding events, to booth setup, to customer conversations.

The last five months included some trying times...both in launching this business and in fighting cancer through chemotherapy— I poured my heart, knowledge, and experience into creating a resource I wish I had when I started, to help others thrive, even through their own mess and grit.

Simplicity with Sarah Holtz and the Vendor Savvy course is the result of choosing to keep going — of showing up through the hard seasons and still believing in purpose to plan a future.


More Than a Course: Zoom Vendor Guidance Now Available

Along with the course, I’m also offering Zoom-based vendor consultations — available 1:1 and in small group settings.

In these sessions, we’ll cover:

  • Personalized vendor strategies

  • Display and booth planning

  • Sales mindset and confidence

  • Space to ask your specific questions and work through the “messy middle”

Sometimes we don’t just need a lesson, we need a real conversation. That’s the purpose of these sessions.
