Congrats on 1000 sales!!! You definitely earned it! On the bright side, you have a lot of stock and wont need to SUPER stress about future markets! That's always how I look at it when I don't do well at markets, like well at least I don't need to do a ton of restock for future markets.
I had my moment of sad and now am totally on the bright side of it for sure! The not having to do a ton of prep for the next couple is making me so happy haha
Could you walk us through a multi-day event process some time? How much inventory you prep, how you close up/what you take down at night, do you get insurance? Etc.
Ooo good to know! I've done another Bellingham Makers Market that was at the Bellingham farmers market and it went pretty good but haven't done a ton of other events up there yet.
Congrats on 1000 sales! Such a big milestone! I am curious… why return things when you’d likely just need to repurchase them again for future events or your online sales?
Thank you so much! So I mostly just returned the doubles of the booth stuff - like the 2nd tent, table and display stuff since I am not planning on doing a double up again anytime soon. But I think I will hold onto the blank apparel I havent used yet since I know i'll be doing more of them for the next few markets! :)
I do! I use Shopify POS and purchased their cheapest card reader! You can also set up tap to pay on your phone if you don't want to buy the reader and can enter cards manually. It then filters in with the rest of my shopify sales. I really love that it all connects!

Congrats on hitting over 1000 sales! That's amazing ❤❤
Thank you so much! I honestly can't believe I finally hit it 😍
Yay you made your 1000 sales! 🎉
I do want to say it was cool to also see your hubby help with video footage. Doing a great job 👏
Thank you so much!! I'm glad you liked it! We weren't sure if it would work but I thought it added something fun to it for sure :)
Congratulations!!
I'm at the Mount Vernon Farmers market. The crafter's section doesn't do very well and there isn't a lot of foot traffic

@@PalmCreative I missed the application period for the Bellingham farmers market. I'm hoping to be there next year

Do you accept card payments, what do you use?
