Preparing for Craft and Trade Shows

Many designers and crafters sell their products at craft fairs and trade shows. Many of us have already had several shows this year and may have a full schedule of events for the upcoming holiday season.

However, do you feel that you have gotten the best out of the shows you have attended? Will you like to get more from your show? Have you met your yearly sales target to-date? Will you like to find new ways of improving what you do or will like to share what works well for you?

Well, with all of these questions in mind Crafted Spaces has an upcoming FREE online session on Friday, October 28th, 2011 at 7:00 p.m. This interactive session will focus on the discussion of "Preparing for Craft and Trade Shows." We will focus on how to select the right shows and how to get ready for shows. We will also discuss, how to connect with customers and how to meet your target sales, plus other helpful tips.

We started looking at other aspects of this topic earlier this year, and did two post that we feel are very helpful to this discussion. Here are the links to those post:
