I was invited to do a vendor showcase tonight for the American Red Cross. They are asking that each vendor donate 20% to the ARC from the proceeds. Well, I need to hit $600 in sales so I don't give away 10% of my commission. That's where I need you. I am bringing a green table cover, simple addi+ions, candy, candy canes, new products and will also be serving french bread with a cream cheese dip. I'm doing this to draw attention to my booth.

I want to have my sales high (of course I do!:D ) and get great exposure so I'm wondering if you have any other suggestions. I've done TONS of fairs/festivals so I'm familiar how it all works but I would love to get some good Christmas selling ideas.

THanks in advance! By the way, ITS TONIGHT!!!:eek: I have to leave in 2 hours!
 
How did it go?

It went well! I was the highlight of the evening! I had the most sales out of every vendor there. Yeah for me! There were only 20 people who walked through the door.:eek: I'm not sure what happened but you can't predict these things. My commissionable sales are at $348.57 right now and I now I have to get the chair person's order today. So we'll see where it closes out. My first order of the night was a woman who came up and said "I need cookware!" I about DIED!:eek: SO I showed her all the cookware and she bought the professinal casserole with lid among other things. Her total was $155! I knew from then I would have a great night!:D
 
You need to call her to be a hostess for January!!!!!
