Partner Vendor Discount Program

Do I have to hire a Partner Vendor?

No. Hiring a Partner Vendor is completely optional. You may book the venue and use any vendor you choose. The Partner Vendor Discount is simply an optional promotion for clients who choose to work with one of our Partner Vendors.

​

What do I get if I hire a Partner Vendor?

When you hire a Partner Vendor for your event and submit proof of purchase, you receive:

• 8 additional hours of venue time
• A complimentary package tier upgrade to Collective Essential or Prime
• Over $315 in total savings

 

What if I already hired a vendor?

If the vendor you hired is one of our Partner Vendors, you can still qualify for the promotion by submitting proof of purchase at least 5 days prior to your event.

​

If your vendor is not currently a Partner Vendor, the promotion would not apply.

​

Are Partner Vendors more expensive?

No. In fact, many venues charge vendors 8–12% commission, which often gets passed on to clients through higher pricing.

We don’t take commissions. Our Partner Vendors pay a flat monthly membership, which helps keep their pricing more predictable and competitive.

​

Why are there only a few Partner Vendors?

We intentionally limit the program to a few vetted vendors so we can build real relationships with professionals who are reliable, flexible, and aligned with our community model. This keeps the experience simple for clients and maintains a high standard of service.

 

Why does The Community Shared Space not take commissions?

Many venues charge vendors 8–12% commissions to work onsite. Vendors typically pass that cost along to clients through higher pricing.

We don’t take commissions. Instead, Partner Vendors pay a flat monthly membership, which helps keep their pricing more predictable and often more affordable for our clients.

 

Can I still bring my own vendors?

Yes. You are welcome to bring any vendors you prefer. Our Partner Vendor program is simply an optional way to receive additional time, a package upgrade, and savings if you choose to work with one of our approved partners.

​

What proof do I need to receive the discount?

A receipt, invoice, or booking confirmation showing that you hired one of our approved Partner Vendors for your event date.

 

When do I need to submit proof?

Proof must be submitted to keep the promotional discount. Time allotted for submitting proof is based on the number of weeks between the date the booking is made on and the date you are reserving, as follows​,

 

if your booking is

• 1 week from reservation date - submit proof within 3 days

• 2 weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 5 days

• 3-4 weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 7 days

• 5-8 weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 10 days

• 9-12 weeks from reservation date  - submit proof within 14 days

• 13-24 weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 21 days

• 25-36 weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 30 days

• 37-52 weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 45 days

• 53+ weeks from reservation date - submit proof within 60 days

 

What happens if I select the Partner Vendor Discount but don’t hire one?

If a Partner Vendor is not hired or proof is not submitted in time, the promotion will be removed. You may either:

• Keep your original selected Package, or
• Upgrade to the Collective Prime Package at the standard rate.

​

Can I hire more than one Partner Vendor?

Absolutely. Many clients hire multiple Partner Vendors depending on their event needs. The promotional benefit, however, only requires one Partner Vendor to qualify.

 

Are Partner Vendors exclusive to your venue?

No. Our Partner Vendors operate independent businesses and serve clients at many locations. They partner with us because they support our community-based, no-commission model.

​

Why does the discount require a Partner Vendor?

The promotion supports the community of professionals who regularly work with our space. In return, we offer clients additional venue time and a package upgrade, creating added value for everyone involved.​

​

Why doesn’t the venue take a commission from vendors?

Many venues charge vendors 8–12% commission just to work onsite. Vendors often pass that cost along to clients through higher pricing.

We chose a different model. Our Partner Vendors pay a flat monthly membership instead of a percentage, which helps keep pricing more transparent and predictable for everyone.

​

Are Partner Vendors required to increase their prices to work here?

No. Because we do not take commissions, our partners are not required to build extra venue fees into their pricing. This helps them keep their services competitively priced for our clients.

​

How do you choose your Partner Vendors?

Partner Vendors are carefully selected and limited in number based on professionalism, reliability, flexibility, and the quality of services they provide. We focus on building a small, trusted community of professionals who consistently support events at our space.
