7 tips to INCREASE SALES at vendor markets as a small business owner // pop-up shop advice
3:24: Some of these venues charge three-figure fees. Anything above $75, and even below, I am expecting an event report: anticipated volume for the event, area demographics, weather, etc. I believe that is what you are paying towards. Of course, this may not be the norm, but it should be done to support small businesses. Also, some of these payment processing apps are used by many of these vendors. I wonder if the data can be scraped from their reports?
That you can, is iconTic!! I wish I could even be delusional to think I could do that.
I experienced a similar issue when looking for a wedding dress only i can't sew. I was lucky my mom said she would make it. We bought extra so that we could use the same frabric for the ring pillow & a few other items. It was amazing! You can do it!
Beautiful booth 🤩
Beautiful
I am obsessed with your dress! Where is it from?!
the only problem I have with this setup is that the table is kind of hidden. I love the A frame, you should get another one and have them flanking the kiosk. the amount of stuff you can display on A frames is amazing. my peak time is christmas so I spend my time now making stock, testing prototypes and considering my layouts.
I would love if you would post about the finished product of your wedding dress!
40 years ago me and a group off girlfriends decided to make 1 dress for us all. Each one off us had a different over dress and we pulled it off. 4 off our daugthters got married in the same dress
Hi monica could you please provide a tutorial od how you sew your pouches
I’ve been doing my pop up shop at an event that’s held each Thursday this summer, but with temps hitting 100 degrees, I have to bow out - it’s just too hot. I make handmade jewelry along with book markers, keychains and friendship bracelets for young children. My next events will be every Saturday in October and a two day indoor event for Christmas in November. But I also have my jewelry in four local shops with a fifth sometime this month. Love your videos -
Ocean's necklace!!!! I absolutely love mine! I'm happy to see other people wearing it <3
Did any of your candles melt?
surprisingly, not really!! they got a bit soft at the top, but didn't fully melt. I've had candles melt at other markets because the sun was shining right on them. But the sun never directly hit my booth so I was safe:)
☺️Winnie here! so happy that u like the cup from Pudgy_studio🎉 I do have my RUclips channel hhhh but it’s in Chinese haha. Glad u did well in this market!
so great meeting you:)
that's really warm to be outside in! wish you'd give us some of that summer weather here in the uk haha 😂
hahaha wish I could share the warmth minus the stickiness & humidity:)
Amazing video! Always so inspiring, especially now when i'm in a mood for sewing again :) I love your pouches btw so cute and nice pattern on the fabrics :D Have a good one!
thanks so much:)
I didn’t mind the mic but i didn’t necessarily like how it picked up the audio. I can understand using a mic at a pop up but not when you’re right infront of the camera in a quiet room. Other than that, I loved this video!
I SO agree. I'm playing around with the settings because I think I didn't have it set up properly for my camera. Thanks for the feedback!
I really want to visit you and your booth you’ve really been an inspiration to me🥰
Get it girl!
Love it! Also matching dress with the scrunchie is chefs kiss! I need to record myself setting up because I could totally tell the organized chaos going in your mind especially when it comes to table set up. Even when I have the set up in mind I am always seeing if there is a way I could organize it better that day while "racing" the clock 🤣 Love the new A frame you have I bet that attracts peoples eyes. Also so shocked on the pink polka dot tent so cute! Every time I rent it is always classic white, which is fine but just so cool to see not a classic white. 2cents on POS, I have square too as a backup because you can use it offline, but fees will be higher as you do get a reduced card transaction fee with Shopify's POS.
I think you need to just buy that tent because it goes perfectly lol Where is the kiosk from?
It's also from vertical ledge! updated the link in the description + here: collabs.shop/kls9dg :)
Love the new pink studio 🩷💗💕💖 & the music is so cute 😊 thanks for creating fun videos
thanks so much for watching!!<3
I love your videos. You are an inspiration to me. It is a lot of hard work to do what you do. I look forward to your next one.
thank you so much:)
I love your sundress and yellow scrunchie to match!! That color looks amazing on you! 💛💛💛
thank you!!! I was so pleasantly surprised when my scrunchie perfectly matched my dress:)
Hi Monica !! I recently started watching your videos and I love your content. I've been thinking of learning to sew and may be do something out of it ( hopefully a small business). Can you share the basic requirements to start..I'm new and confused with everything available in the market. Thanks !
honestly all you need is a sewing machine & the materials (depending on what you plan to sell). content creation is important to promote your products!
@@missadrisa Can you suggest a beginner friendly sewing machine?
@@AnitaPBarla singer heavy duty is really good & i haven’t had any issues! but a more affordable option would be one of the brother sewing machines🤍
I loved this vlog! Make sure you get a fan! Also where is the tote bag holder from?
it's from vertical ledge! they actually don't sell this version anymore but the have some updated garment racks that seem amazing
@@monicarazak Oh dang 😭 Thank you!
Hi Monica! Love the Hoboken vlog. Thank you for the shout-out and enjoy the postcards - Monika :) 🌸🌿🌺
so great to meet you!!!:)
Wow amazing 🤩
Omg your dress and the pants of the girl in the beginning that were like cute bell bottoms!?😮 need
Thank you and YES her pants we SO cool. I thrifted my dress but it's originally from GAP:)
So I’ve done 4 fairs so far since I started binging your content! Do you have any advice on how to choose events? Also I’m going live with my website on Monday…any advice on how to setup shipping for a beginner without a thermal printer?!
I like choosing events that I've been to before as an actual customer and saw first hand how successful it can be! I also like picking events that some of my other vendor friends will also be at who have similar ideal customers as I do. At the end of the day, it's important to just do a BUNCH of markets when you're first starting out just to get some experience.
How do you find markets? I'm in NJ too just down south closer to Philly :) Love your videos!
I often run into markets in person as a customer as I explore new neighborhoods and cities - but recently I've also been finding a bunch through social media. After following a lot of my vendor friends from previous markets, I see the markets that they announce they will be at, then I apply to those myself:) I but there are a TON in philly, plus I know some happen in Princeton if you're closer to that area!
what's the WILDEST weather situation you had at a vendor market?? The 102° heat was pretty brutal...but definitely not as bad as the one a did a couple winters ago where the real feel was 10°
We had a flood warning 😭and the wind was crazy
@@homemadebyhazell omg wind is the WORST. I always fear for my life that someone's tent is going to blow into me!
This past May we were about 1 hour away from shut down and a tornado went through about 4 miles south of us. I was in my tent with all the sides zipped up and a river of water was flowing between my tables. We had six vendors who lost their tents, but only two had damaged product. It was wild.
This past weekend my tent fully lifted off the ground because of the wind 😭😭😭 I’ll take the heat any day
It was wild! Also a classic NY move, AC's in indoor places were struggling with the heat wave. I was at an indoor market and it was warm 🤣 I also reached out to my 2 other small biz besties who were at other indoor markets with the same issues.
So beautiful! Will you be showing your wedding dress too?
Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed learning from you and love my mini candles.😊
so happy you like them!!:)
Do you have issues with copyright laws and using spoonflower fabric on your website or on Etsy
My owalla is my favorite water bottle. She’s been through so much and is still keeping my water cold. I take it to every market. I had two markets this past weekend in NC. Both days the real feel was in the 100s. I was miserable lol I ended up with sun sickness so make sure to hydrate hydrate hydrate.
I live in Germany so luckily I’ve never experienced a pop up that was this hot. But also I’ve had summer markets get rained out so that the flip side of the coin 🥲
Dress Is Beautiful Congratulations
congratulations!!!
You‘ve once asked in a video pf yours if there‘s a quicker/easier way to put the elastics into the srunchies. I found this tutorial a year ago -> ruclips.net/video/17REeULcwTI/видео.htmlsi=7Mct-prVx5xT4xxA And maybe that is helpful for you 🤍 Really enjoying your videos ✨🌸 Love from Austria 😊 PS:
How much was the fabric?
Girl congrats that looks incredible🤩🤩🤩
Woahhh congratulations!!!! It looks incredible!!!!! <3
