    That was a real "wow" moment when you mounted all that artwork on your display furniture! You showed amazing preparedness and professionalism, especially for your first time! We know a lot of artists who plan their summer and fall around shows like this. Thanks for sharing your experience!

    I want to thank you for being so transparent about your money. I know it's a squicky thing to talk about, but I think it's so important for artists to better understand what goes on when you sell art!!

    Oh my goodness! I wish I was there! I sold my art fir the first time a few months ago and made around 180 dollars which shocked me. (I also spent no money on supplies since I already had them all, so I didn’t lose any money, and I sold only originals. I also made ten sales!) Especially since I was (am) a young artist who only started drawing a few months ago. It felt so rewarding when people would ask for my business cards (which I didn’t have, lol) or when people were trying to get me to do commissions. My favorite part is when I would have other artist come up and ask me how I did it. This video is so much fun! Thank you!

    One artist to another. Pls use pen or paint on your prints. My daughter had her work stolen and used by another party. Because she signed in pencil. Super hard to prove. Now I’m going to sit and watch your upload. Love your work.

    I never realised quite how much you need to buy for a market! I always thought they provided the table and stuff so this is quite eye opening haha 😂 Congratulations on your first market too 🎉

  • @watersoluble5871
    @watersoluble5871 Рік тому +7

    Maybe split the displays and have them on either corner of the table so you can stand in the center! It will also increase your visibility to reduce people trying to steal small things like stickers and such 😊

    I have no following and I did a pop up market (within a store), recently, and while I sold quite a bit, it was so nice to meet people! For me it felt good trying it out without investing too much first. Lol (I borrowed baskets from friends)😂❤

    Congrats on your first art market! I'm glad you had a good time! Also weird question, how did you track which venmo payment went to which purchase? I've been thinking of doing a market or 2, and I've seen people do this but when I wonder how to track it all it gives me an unreasonable amount of anxiety lol.

  • @CraftyCatarena

    Stick with it. So much money can be made at markets. My first market I only made 200. Now I consistently make over 1,000. I think you had the right idea about doing a L shape. Changing my layout to a Z shape has really made a huge difference. I really had to practice a few different set ups. Unfortunately you never really know how the flow of traffic will go at any event so having options is really key. Originally I focused on how the booth “presented” like “Pinterest worthy” the more I focused on accessibility and flow the more sales I made.

  • @fuzzydragons
    @fuzzydragons Рік тому

    markets around here can be tricky. def need to research the target audience since it ranges from people just wanting to get crafts for cheap, to farmers/pet owners wanting animal art with a few abstract wanting people thrown in. the best markets are the xmas markets, but no guarantee you will make money since a lot of people are looking for cheap presents. i would love to do a market/fair but the start up costs are just too much

  • @lisadamron8876
    @lisadamron8876 Рік тому +1

    I wonder what the profit was if you only included the cost of the items you sold. It might be a more accurate number for your viewers who want to know if it’s worth it since you can still sell the unsold stock and probably shouldn’t count the cost of it for this event. Does that make sense?
