Are you ready for tomorrow's vendor event?

[dannyzmom]

I woke up today feeling like cr*p...headcold, sore throat...blah.
This morning tonight's hostess called to cancel (woo hooo!!!!) so I can rest tonight wheich makes the vendor event a lot less stressful at 8am tomorrow. I am doing the Caramel Apple Bread Pudding - in the DCB, will place that on the woven round to protect the table...maybe with a nice dishcloth between to dress it up a bit? The layer a fruit salad in the Trifle with a big dollop of cool whip on top. Three tier Stand with....hmm...maybe just empty? And the Rectangle platter w/handles dressed up with a ribbon on a plate stand with something written on it - what should I write?

How about~"Earn me for FREE" or "Ask how you can get this for FREE" or something like that.

I have a couple of those plastc/lucite display stand things that I can put a flyer into - I was thinking of putting th trifle card into one and not sure about the other -- I love your idea, I can print that in a fun font on bright paper.

I like making a sign that says:

COOKWARE SALE 50% OFF!*
*when you host a show with at least $300 in sales​

Hi guys - I am back!
First of all the Caramel Apple Bread Pudding was freakin amazing!! I put a layered fruit salad in the Trifle - people commented alot on how gorgeous it was but nobody wanted to buy one. I sold a Deep Covered Baker and got a booking from a gal who wants to get the DCB at her show (in 3 weeks). I did just under $200 in sales. Not bad for a few hours. I was feeling lousy but took some Tylenol Cold and that helped - I am going to go lay down now.

I certainly hope so!!
I was the only vendor of this type today. The rest were all boutique kids' clothes and costume jewelry. There was one candle lady from Gold Canyon Cancles. Having the fruit trifle and the bread pudding led people over because they were hungry! !LOL

That's great Carolyn!! Congrats!

 

[DebbieJ]

Awesome!!!!

I think any time you do an event like this and can actually turn it in as a show, you can call it a success!

WTG on the booking, too!
