What is fair: Definition and 200 Discussions

Hi All! I have a Bridal Fair on February 7th. At the end of the fair, I get a list of all registered brides, their address, phone number and email! I'm pretty excited about this. What have you done at Bridal Fairs in the past? Do you have any pictures? I want to make this super...

Happy New to everyone. I did a holiday fair this month and I have some items left over that I would like to sell. If you wish to see the list, please email me at [email protected]. Please no PM's. :) Thanks Amy

I'm up I'm packed I'm checking my list AND I feel like I've forgotten every bit of PC product information that was in my head! :o Wish me luck. At least hubby's going with me (his own free will lol) so I'll have back up.

My son has a hypothesis he is trying to prove for a Science Fair project and I need your help. He needs people from all over to answer this question:At what temperature do you consider it "cold" outside?Meaning, what is the highest temperature at which you think, "it is now cold outside."When...

I will be doing a charitable holiday shopping event at a large insurance company. All it is costing me is a donation of a $10-$15 item for a charity raffle. I have that covered with Appetizer & Holiday Dessert cookbooks as well as a SBCB. There are 500 employees! I need ideas! What has...

I worked with someone else at a Christmas craft show this last weekend. I had lots of small items for cash and carry. My partner needed orders and bookings. I think we both did well. I could have also sold 7 ice cream scoops if I would have had them. I hear others against cash and carry...

Just made this up today, took inspiration from some of the other flyers I found here. The new consultant kit pic is outdated, from 2 seasons ago, no biggie. I printed it out and it is BOLD and BIG! Hope it gets us lots of leads at our fair tomorrow!

I have a craft fair this weekend and I still cant find a flyer to pass out! I can only do a PDF flyer for some reason. Thankyou!!!!! Amy

To count a holiday fair as a cooking show if I made cookies before the fair and brought them there? I told them I made the cookies with the press but didn't actually make them there. I spent about $15 on the ingredients and then passed them out as free samples. I don't want to do anything...

So I paid $400 to do this fair today and the lady in charge asked me to bring products to sell because the girl that did this before sold over $1000 cash and carry 2 years ago. Well I don't have an inventory of anything except for a few things that I earned for free that I don't use. Well my...

I was just curious I would love to do an event like this. Being new I am really trying to get my name out there. I just don;t know how you even get into something like that. Please any information would help. I live in southern california... Thanks!

My daughter will be involved in a large craft fair with her animal shelter booth. Since I'm doing a fundraiser for her shelter she asked if I wanted to be in her booth and try to get a few orders to help with the fundraiser. I will not have any kind of display. (no room) Just my catalogs and...

Hi Everyone, I have a question. Please tell me what you think. I did research and found a craft fair. Found out that they had space and rate was reasonable( 125) It is one day. Traffic is 50,000 people. It is outdoors. Well advertised event and one of the largest her in the Orlando area...

I have a vendor fair on Saturday (not too big) and my question is should I bother to have any sort of food? I have learned not to do too much as it never seems to make a difference so I don't want to kill myself to make something if no one thinks its worth it. Thanks!

i am doing a booth tomorrow and today i am TRYING to get my 'to do list' accomplished lol way too much stuff that needs to get done...anyways as i was running around i realized that i have no idea what i am going to put the drawing slips in...any ideas the normal basket i use at shows is way too...

Has anyone participated in a women's health fair recently? I will have a booth in a couple weeks at our local health fair. However, we cannot sell products just promote general good health. This is so different from my "regular" booths since I cannot take cash & carry or "sell" the products...

I'm doing a combination fair at our local mall -- it is a combination event for women to start their businesses, along with the local Halloween parade. Each child needs to register a week in advance and obtain a bag -- I thought I could insert a recipe into the bag since the mom's will be...

I worked a small church fair last Saturday. It was mostly for people with garage sale stuff. Most of my customers were other vendors. One lady came and started wanting everything. She took some information with her and emailed me a few days ago saying she signed under me. Lucky me!

I am doing a booth tomorrow at a fair in my area. There are probably 10 or so consultants who take different times. I am looking for a creative way to attach something to peppermints to give away. Any other creative ideas to get bookings or recruits would be awesome. I have not had any shows...

I am doing one this weekend at our local mall. I have done state, county, and craft fairs before. Any suggestions for big impact products, signage, etc. I'm doing a drawing each day and picking 3 for free shows. I don't have a set aside starter kit to bring. Thanks!

I need some ideas please! I have been searching for an hr and cannot find the thread where we talked about kids event ideas. I have a kids BTS fair tomorrow. Each booth must have an activity. So far all I have is the guessing game. I filled all 4 of the glass pinch bowls with skittles and...

:chef: Any Chefs living in the Houston Tx area. I have an opportunity for you for Recruiting leads. I am looking for a few people to help me out thea Job Fair Booth in September and October. Send me a email if you are interested.

I worked the Natchez Food Fair this past weekend and was overwhelmed with the response. I counted 41 slips that were recruiting leads, 44 wanted to book a show, about 20 interested in fundraisers, and 15 bridal showers. I have over 50 that want email newsletters. I have over 200 that didn't...

I have read the other threads but my situation is a little different. The booth is setup by a local director. I have signed up to work 3 nights the first 2 and another one through the week. I have worked this fair several times in the past, I actually started the booth, but gave it to her...

ok - I need feedback. My place of employment (a hospital) is having a Vendor fair to raise money for United Way. They are offering a table for 2 days for $70.00. I was considering doing this unitl I was just told that they only want cash & carry. Since we don't stock an inventory per se, I...

The Bridal Fair I did was my first. It was chuch sponsored. They offered different packages. The lowest (which I took) was $100 for a table and if I donated a doorprize (which I did) they would knock off $25. So I only paid $75. That's the only way I was able to do this fair. The other packages...

OK so I have the Vinyl PC banner but I was thinking of doing one of the small banners from Vista since they are free right now. I have a booth comming up at a county fair (5 days long) I was thinking it might be nice to spotlight the biz opp and/or 29 min meals and under 2$ a serving. Any ideas?

So, I've heard the idea a few times about setting up your own vendor event if none are available. Over the last few months, I've met/networked with quite a few other Direct Sales/Crafters in my area. Now, my town/area doesn't really have any vendor events that I've seen in the 2 yrs I live...

Anyone have any idea / rough estimate of how much cab fair would run from the airport to the hotels area (Sheraton)? Trying to decide if I go if I want to fly or drive. Ten hours in a car sounds like torture but may be the option depending on other costs. Is O'Hare the most convenient?

Hello All!! Wow, 1st day of June, where has this year gone, huh? Well, I know this is REALLY early to be asking, but I just want to make sure I have a full plate, or attempt to come Nov/Dec. I am planning on doing a Vendor event in Nov, & was looking at flyers for it to use. For the holidays...
