Part Two of the Weekly Craft Show

by Rick Amorey

When you are setting up your booth, you will notice that is one of the things you will contemplate long and deeply. Just think about the amount of setting up that you do at a one-time show and then imagine doing it over and over on a weekly basis. It's not that easy to put all your goods in an attractive arrangement! Waking up early to do so will get you drinking coffee by the cups.

But, this particular level of detail will really help you get more sales. If you decide to just throw things haphazardly on the table, you will have less than appealing booth. Visitors will probably not stop by for long beside this, and more people will peruse a tidy and visually organized stall. This will give you more chance of a purchase. So, make everything as tidy and neat as you can.

Remember to avoid sticking to your old tired formula for design, though. Try to be creative and make an effort to change your booth from time to time; doesn't have to be complicated, even just rearranging the wares into different placements will help. Shuffling the items will help visitors to see new things among your goods and they may see something new they want to buy. You will also develop adaptability; a skill that will help you immensely when you need to set up a stall at a new and unfamiliar location.

After you've done your initial setup in the morning, you should not just sit idly by for the rest of the day. Your stuff will get picked up, especially if you follow the above advice adequately. You can't then blame the visitor to your booth if he or she sets it down at a different place; that is when you go back up and refresh your arrangement. So go back and rearrange periodically to keep your booth looking fresh.

Everything should be organized and neat and that includes, you, the seller. Even if you have to wake up before sunrise, and you've just been gulping cups of coffee the whole time, you just can't sit idly by and expect your stall to be lively. You have to be out there and smiling at the potential customers.
