So, I’m supposed to be getting a booth/table at some bazaar events soon… I’m scared to death. I just started up my business (it’s on my page) and I’ve never done any of this.
How many products should I make? Should my pricing be what I have now? Should I go up? How does this work? What happens if I sell out (doubtful, but still)?
Any tips or advice about doing bazaars would be great. I’m pretty nervous.
You’ve got some excellent advice here.
I’ll add, bring a friend. Or have someone come by occasionally to spell you.
Why? Because you will need someone to mind the booth while you take a bathroom break, or just go stretch your legs or grab a bite, or whatever. Also bring something to sit on, and some snacks and water.
You could just swap “watch my booth for 5 minutes, willya?” favours with someone at the next booth, but what happens if they get swamped with customers?
