26:58: Last weekend, we completed our first pop-up event. A critical lesson we learned from the experience is the significance of signing up for events that compliment our products and overall brand atmosphere.
Monica, with the mosquito season ramping up, you should create a citronella mini. You'd sell dozens! Bonus for you if you light one at your booth to keep from getting bit!
Is there a list of stuff you have for sale on here anywhere ? I love the way you share while you're setting up, it is so hard for me to plan for my first event without feeling overwhelmed. ❤❤❤
I'm just starting a handmade candle and handmade soap business. I enjoy watching you. You have helped me with how I set up my popup. I don't do to many in the summer cause it's so hot and humid here in Louisiana. They don't have many markets here in the summer cause most are outside. I do set up outside a local general store in our little town. The owner also lets me set up some of my candles and soaps in his store. I do give him a percentage of the sales I make in his store. Also being a disabled vet i give $2.00 out of each candle and $1.00 from the sale of my soaps. I don't let people know I do that. My daughters keep telling me I should advertise that I do that. Keep up the great job and keep posting your videos.
Love your vibe and channel beyond. Thank you for all you share with us, it’s always helpful and fun to watch and hope every market’s super successful for you, Sis!❤🎉💖✨
I love your videos and they inspire me a lot. I want to start selling me own crafts, but I've had trouble finding pop-ups. Do you have any you'd recommend for a first timer?
I am thinking about doing some markets next year! I do embroidery so my business is a little bit different! Your set up and advice is so informative! Plus you are fun to watch!
Will be so happy and excited for the day when I start getting more comfortable talking to people about my small business even though it’s technically still just an idea right now. I am more of an introvert too and I tend to get tough tied and nervous when I talk to people about things I am passionate about even when I know the person really well.
you should talk to some one like me, people like to confide in me and I love to hear what people do. I only have a problem with talking too much. I am not scared of anybody and if people dont run fast enough, I am going to talk to them!
I love watching your videos, you’re so down to earth! I have my first indoor pop-up in 3 weeks so I’m both nervous and excited at the same time! 😅 It was great watching your process and your day- reminds me that I need a little pitch to welcome people to my booth and explain my business. Thanks for sharing! 💙
Hey! I would recommend keeping the top triangle together (for the arms) and the bottom triangle together (for the legs) to keep it even faster for setting up that Aframe :) ALSO as you were setting up, I realized you could totally do just the bottom half of the aframe for a set up if you only needed half👀👀
You have gotten so much confidence since you first started doing pop ups. Your set up always looks amazing!! I can’t wait to start my own shop thank you for all the information and inspiration 💓
I find a great stain remover is wetting the stain and using sunlight soap bar to rub into the stain and then without rinsing it off, wash it as normal ❤❤
Hi! I love your pop up vlogs and it has inspired me to start looking into doing my own pop ups. Have you ever thought about having a few samples just for scents and when you run out of inventory at the pop up, people can still order the candles they want and you get their information and ship them out after the pop up?
Glad to know I am not the only one who also is nervous setting up and calm once it is all completed. So come to find out I have become an "ambivert" : "a person whose personality has a balance of extrovert and introvert features." But those typically who are this recharge as an introvert (at home). But agree at markets I want to chat! But will admit I am always so happy to get home and talk to no one for hours on end 🤣
mine next fair is Sept 7th!!! working furiously!!! I will steal the idea of interactive charms and chains to add to my display... perfect!!! thank you!!!
First of all I love your videos and I wish I could come to on of your markets! ❤ just wanted to share an idea for your decals, on the clear display that you have them in , why don’t you actually stick one as display on it where they are located and instead of having them lying down you could roll up some tissue paper and fill the little shelf with to hold them up right. I don’t know if I’m explaining what I’m seeing in my head…lol
Hi Monica, oooo I heard an Aussie in you video, I’m thinking of doing decals for my markets, is it too cheeky to ask what instructions do you give for applying and removing?
Make a big note to self to bring lots of the top sellers. As someone who likes to be prepared, then be that. Worst thing is that you come home with one or two sandalwood candles. Also noticed a repeating of words, i.e. "that's okay, that's okay" ... it's not the best sounding, but I'm a librarian, so take it with salt.
How did you come to the conclusion of which FO you chose according to your brand? I have a hard time choosing which fragrance oil can go well with mine brand. I don’t sell yet.
She did a video about her recent ish 4K change over. It was awesome and can’t recall but worth the Monica binge for sure. Would love to know the mic too❤❤❤
you look absolutly cute, just that the outfit looks like a suit and you're ready for physical work. So I'm sure you have built up muscles. My arms are looking different after a few shows :)

it's so good to hear that markets have helped with your anxiety, that's amazing!

Great idea❤
Lemongrass and eucalyptus > than citronella is my recommendation.
I hate the scent lol
I think I could watch your videos forever and never get bored of them and you post so often ugh I love it
the last summer pop-up of 2024!! Can’t wait to start prepping for fall markets🤗🤗
Can you do a video about which markets are best around NYC NJ area?

I love how you educated your customer about the candle burn and wick!
Love your vibe and channel beyond. Thank you for all you share with us, it’s always helpful and fun to watch and hope every market’s super successful for you, Sis!❤🎉💖✨
I can’t wait to be able to invest in vertical ledge stuff. It makes things looks so chic.
Girl you are one of my besties and coworker while I work on my business wish I live where you live to support you more than watching videos!
You are so funny. Sorry the mosquitoes attacked you. I love your videos. You have encouraged me with your positivity. Keep it going lady.
You give me soooo much motivation! Thank you so much, I’m going to my first fall pop up this year❤

First minute: Anxiety doesn't make sense. Girl, mood.

Love these videos. My first pop up is on Oct 26th and I’m so excited.

You should make a citronella scented candle and light that during markets with mosquitoes. 😊
🖤💛💖 Love a new pop up from Monica!! Thank you for uploading!It gives me motivation to keep going!
Goal: make it to a Monica’s Collective in person vendor market!
I’m from Virginia so need to save up for the trip ❤

Everything’s so pretty🌹🍀🧡!
What if you pin/clip your mirror decals to a standing board? That would allow customers to see them without looking over the shelves.😊
Good to know that I’m not the only one who gets anxious about uber making fuss over the amount of stuff hehe!! Love the video as usual♥️♥️
I have lived in Texas, and their heat is humid heat, and now I moved back to Arizona. the heat is dry heat. Im just used to it i guess.
First of all I love your videos and I wish I could come to on of your markets! ❤ just wanted to share an idea for your decals, on the clear display that you have them in , why don’t you actually stick one as display on it where they are located and instead of having them lying down you could roll up some tissue paper and fill the little shelf with to hold them up right.

Hi Monica, I love your stuff. Where can I purchase them? The bags are so cute
Lol i have one ready for my next one lol vertical ledge
I already watched all your videos and I was craving a new one 😋
Hi Monica, oooo I heard an Aussie in you video, I’m thinking of doing decals for my markets, is it too cheeky to ask what instructions do you give for applying and removing?
What size is your table runner on your table? I love all your set up pieces. I've yet to do a pop up! Thank you for your long videos!!😍
It's the 36" size on Vistaprint!
@@monicarazak Thank you Monica!❤️
gorgeous products :) don't beat yourself up for not bringing out more of some items. Next time you know to bring more :)
Yay, here in Australia cant sleep, just keep thinking of my joyious to do list for my micro business lol. And then you appear 🎉
Heya fellow Aussie here, where in aus are you? And what’s your business?
Make a big note to self to bring lots of the top sellers. As someone who likes to be prepared, then be that. Worst thing is that you come home with one or two sandalwood candles. Also noticed a repeating of words, i.e. "that's okay, that's okay" ... it's not the best sounding, but I'm a librarian, so take it with salt.
These are so fun to watch! How much does it cost you to set up a booth at the market?
This market was $120 for the booth fee!
How did you come to the conclusion of which FO you chose according to your brand? I have a hard time choosing which fragrance oil can go well with mine brand. I don’t sell yet.
Does your husband ever come with you to markets? An love your vlogs!!
Yes! He helps me at the bigger festivals:)
great video!
What type of camera and mic do you use?
She did a video about her recent ish 4K change over. It was awesome and can’t recall but worth the Monica binge for sure. Would love to know the mic too❤❤❤
When you uber to you request an SUV?
Hi monica
citronella candles
as a florida vendor, i can confirm we are not in fact built different 😭😭😭
❤
Love watching your videos at markets. It gives me hope. Put some Vicks vapor rub on your mosquito bite and it will be gone within the hour.
Bless you woman, they are brutal and nothing ever works
@@geishagrrrl1 Vicks does for sure. I have a tub everywhere. The stick they have doesn’t work as well in my opinion but the original does.
💚
🌟💕💕
💜💙
you look absolutly cute, just that the outfit looks like a suit and you're ready for physical work. So I'm sure you have built up muscles. My arms are looking different after a few shows :)
Your jumpsuit it’s too cute! 😍 May I ask where you got it? 🫶
She mentioned Lulu 💖✨
