You will get a system and you will decide which craft fairs are worth it for you, or if it is even worth it at all. I have been selling Avon for years and used to go to these kind of events and also flea markets. Stopped doing it for a while because I decided it wasn't worth my time being there all day. But, I am doing the DeAnza Flea Market this Saturday because I have alot of product to move. I have a friend going with me, so hopefully we will enjoy the day together AND move alot of product at the same time.<br /><br />Even if you don't make much sales, if you get new customers and potential customers interested, it may be worth it. I think your product will sell better in the winter. Definitely consider doing these in October/November for Christmas sales. Yes, stick to the ones where the booth fee is minimal. Keep track of expenses for tax time!!Gina's Avonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05507280515736984670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691802619657868095.post-38556724737845616692012-05-03T04:52:58.215-07:002012-05-03T04:52:58.215-07:00For your first craft fair, I think this was a succ...For your first craft fair, I think this was a success. Like developing our skills at knitting, all this takes time and you did such a great and thoughtful job! I think every craft fair gets more looker than buyers but you're still building your name and reputation which will only get more and more solid!
