    I only hold an item for 15min. This gives them time to walk and and talk about it and come back if they decide to buy. I tell them, "I will hold this for 15 minutes. If you decide you don't want it, no worries. I will put it back out at the end of the time."

    Congrats on the awesome market! I have such a hard time holding things because of your exact point. If they don't come back, you could have sold it to someone else. If they do come back and it sold, I feel bad. At the market I just had, I had a boy come in, maybe 12. He saw an axolotl he liked but it wasn't the exact color he would have chose (it was purple). He told me they were going to look around some more and he might be back to get it. He made a little joke about holding it for him, but then said "No that wouldn't be fair to others." I left it on my table. I sold it to someone else...and he came back 😢. He was a little bummed it was gone, but looks at me and says "I'll take your card and maybe I'll get something for myself another day."
    Oh, and I love ketchup and sauerkraut, I haven't had it in so long!

    Not a seller but a buyer at fairs. Sometimes if the item is bulky or I have little space left in my bag, I'll ask the seller if I can purchase the item and have them keep it aside in a bag somewhere in their stand. If they say yes I'll ask them to write their name on the receipt (which I'll keep) and on the bag, so when I come back I can either show it to them or if there's someone else manning the table they'll know who made the sale and which bag is it, and get my item. Always ask to be paid, don't do free holds. ;)

    @offthehookmamma Месяц назад +2

    I will only hold things for a max of 20-30 minutes. that's plenty of time to go to the bank and get back or go to the car and get back. I had a father ask me to hold 2 items recently and they didn't come back. I sold the items but if I held them I would have lost out on $30 profit.

    • @MadebyMandaMal

    Yay what a great market! I would tell people no holds, unless they're coming right back. Or tell them you'd hold it for 30 minutes or something.
    Glad you had a great day! ❤ Now get busy! 😅

    If someone was eyeing an item, and it’s sold before they came back, that’s when I tell them “oh I can make you a custom one.”
    So for example, if someone was eyeing a particular books sleeve size but didn’t necessarily see a fabric that they light out that I currently have out. I told them that I have fabrics at home and I can send a follow-up email and they can choose a fabric and then I’ll make them a custom book sleeve.
    Then once they get the email and decide on their fabric and their size, I send them an invoice and say hey just fill this out. And then I can get it delivered or shipped out to you.

    I am handicapped so I no longer sell in person. However I have a set up just like I would at a market. NO JOKE I have gridwalls in a U formation in my living room (I don't do company lol so no worries there, My living room IS MY MARKET) And I live stream every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I can barely keep up with supply and demand so honestly it's worth it for someone like me (handicapped) to do online. For "holding" I will hold until the end of the stream. So if it's a 2-3 hour stream that's it, I do tag them back before I end the stream but if they don't come back the items go back up for grabs. I actually had this situation last weekend. The lady didn't come back and two of the items she choose were the end of my stock and the sold in the next stream. So MAYBE tell the child that you will hold for maybe 10-15 min so they can go ask a parent for the money but otherwise you have to sell if someone else wants it.
    People spend for the bigger items for Christmas Gifts, Personally I would NOT lower any prices. I think You'll get your asking price on your unicorn.
    Oh and Ketchup and LOTS of onions because well onion breath I just don't care lololololol

  • @emmasloopsnstitches
    @emmasloopsnstitches 24 дня назад +2

    I normally only hold it after it’s been purchased due to the fact that people are more likely to remember they bought something. I see a lot of the times people saying they’ll be right back to purchase something and they never really do, and when they do it shocks me a lot 😂

  • @MissMeganMadeMe
    @MissMeganMadeMe Месяц назад +2

    I don't feel too bad, I just sell it. If they wanted it that bad, they would immediately go get the money and come back in like 5-10 mins. That would be the longest I would 'consider' holding it... even though it's still super hard to sell it when it was a kid that asked. Kids forget easy though, so I try not to let it bother me too much. I feel ya on this one though, tough choice 😥 9:58

    I have a suggestion as a mom that looks for this when I see a crochet table at a market….bundle of crochet food! I always look for little crochet food for my kids play kitchen but no one ever has it. Just maybe a random apple or orange but nothing as a bundle. People look for that for Christmas presents so might be something to look into!!☺️

    Yay, so happy you did so well at this market. It’s not only goos for you, but it’s encouraging to the rest of us who do this! It’s the season for great sales. Well, my biggest market of the year was canceled because of hurricane Milton. I’m so bummed, worked so hard to get everything made for that one. I have none in November and too small of ones at the beginning of December. So wish me luck that I make a little little bit on those two. Congrats on skills share must be exciting to be sponsored by someone. I like my hotdog with sweet relish, mustard, and a little sprinkle of celery salt.🦋💖🦋💖

    Bummer to hear about the keychains getting stolen.

    Favorite toppings -mustard and sauerkraut. I never hold unless I see them physically walk to grab the money, and I’m really sorry you experienced theft. (Poke balls lives matter😂) Glad your market went so well and I’m looking forward to your next one❤

    I have had a situation where someone asked me to hold a 25 dollar item for them and a little girl came by a little while later and started crying because i didn't have the item anymore, i felt really bad and just ended up selling it to her and the person who put it on hold never came back.
