What Should I Bring and Serve at a Holiday Vendor Show?

[cjdrish]

I was invited to a Holiday Vendor Show in an "upscale" neighborhood! I am not sure what to bring and what to serve. I did a vendor party last week and made holiday cookies and the Touchdown Taco dip (I was the only one to eat either) No one tried any of the items to demo and most people knew what they wanted. I also had a gift basket. I was thinking about doing the tuxedo strawberrys but I am at a loss. How can I get more people to stop at my table?? Should I put up a Christmas tree with freebies as ornaments? HELP!!! I haven't be doing this for a long time and I really want to be successfull!! Anything you can think of to help me I would really apperciate.

Holiday Gift Package SamplesI just saw on CC the Holiday gift package samples. Go to downloads and click on Holiday Wish List. They have an example of the Batter Bowl Brownies, if I can find the download of the brownies I'll post it. I like your idea of the freebie ornaments. What you can do is advertise "Book a show and receive a free gift!" Then they can pick off of the tree. I recommend the door prizes from the supply order form.

The tuxedo strawberries are a fantastic idea! What you can do is have everything there and demo how you do it. Also, you might want some cookies made with the cookie press and christmas sprinkles. Package them in plastic bags with your info and decorated with curly ribbon. You can make tags that say "Thank you for stopping by!"

There are endless possibilities. Good Luck!

Okay, I have two here. One is gift package ideas that I got from one of the consultants here on chefsuccess. The lists are not updated. You will need to go through it and make updates. I updated my own version but could not upload it.
Also, I have the holiday wish list from CC. Hope this helps
Yeah! I found it! Here is the batter bowl recipes and a holiday fair layout that I found here from another consultant.

Holiday Showcase FlyerDoes anyone have a Holiday Showcase/Open House flyer? I hate re-inventing the wheel - show I thought I would check here first.

I have a booth at a festival this Saturday and want to hand out flyers for my open house in November.

Any help would be appreciated.

I might be going overboard, but I have a few things that I have 2 of so I was going to have a drawing for the chillzanne server for anyone that spends over $25 and a drawing for shows held between Nov 1 and Jan 30. I have a few flyers but I can't figure out how to get them on here.
