Ty so so getting ready for one in Dec. gave me the inspiration to vlog my journey leading up to it I'll be my 1st Christmas market.
I feel so weird looking at this video (being a dude and all) but it did help my wife and I are preparing for our first market and we did not know the bare minimum, so thanks
This is so much more helpful than half of the videos I came across with people calling themselves experts! Thank you gal - simple and straight forward. Subscribed x
when the markets go back to normal pleaseeee do some market vlogs :)
Yes please
Hi Taylah , what is a square reader?
Hi, I’m not her haha but a square reader is a little device that you can use to accept debit cards anywhere
Taylah you are so an inspiration, I am working on doing my first market day on the 17th and this was a lot of help thank you so much for all that you do for us.
Use a half apron for your till. Like a waitress. Keeps your money on your person.
Such a great video! thanks for making it so informative and you covered so many topics :)
Im looking at starting to go to markets and this has been very helpful. Thank you!
That was my biggest lesson from my first few markets recently, the importance of the other stallholders' products being in a similar price and quality bracket to my own products. If customers are going for cheap and cheerful knick knacks and you're selling beautiful original paintings it's going to be a mismatch resulting in reduced sales. I'm going to research different markets for next year and try a variety out.
Thanks for this video! I’m in the process of creating an inventory of wooden crafts, toys and tools I make. I’d need to charge a fair bit for some items due to materials & time spent on them but some are really quick to make and materials are cheaper but I think I might knock out a few keyrings I can get out for a couple quid each as well!
Thanks again!
Thanks so much, this is really helpful. Loving your channel and content ❤
Thank you for all the tips. My first vendor market is coming up. So, I have been binge watching all your market day videos. While, I work for my inventories for both my site and vendors market.
Also, I just want to tell you that you are such an inspiration.
Watching from 🇨🇦 !!!
WOW! Awesome video! So much helpful information and ideas. You are seriously a great, energetic vendor. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for this content. I am preparing for my 1st market/craft show and this video was overflowing with information!!
I’m attending my first marketing in two weeks and this video was so beneficial. Thank yoooou!
I know this video is quite old now and maybe it was just general advice. But when you're talking about knowing your prices to make adding easier, are you using the square app and have all your products and prices/variations in there? You can just select the items the customer is buying and then either pick cash (and it will tell you the amount of change required) Or click card and it will wake the square reader so they can tap their card.
omg this is super helpful! had no idea with the liabilities etc ❣
Thank you so much Taylah! This is so helpful!
This was extremely helpful! I’ve done 3 markets so far and I still have so much to learn. The checklist idea was fantastic, as the last market I went to, the people told me I seemed like I had been doing this for a long time! I’m like nope, I just watch a lot of UA-cam haha.
Same!!
Thanks! This helps alot, i live in daylesford and there are a few markets around and i was needing some tips to start my market business
Thank you Taylah Rose for all your tips. Particularly helpful as I am in Australia so everything was relevant. I am joining a friend in a couple of weeks for my first ever market. Eek! I’m a little bit terrified. I am a card crafter and she sells candles and soaps so I hope we will be complimentary for each other.
The whole time I was watching you though, I felt like I was watching my niece! I think you are her doppelgänger!
This is very helpful. Thank you for sharing your insight.
Hey there, so I am also currently starting up a hand made accessories business and was wondering if you could do a more in depth video about insurance ? Love your videos 💕
Looking to get into markets, thank you so much!!
love how informative and clear you are about markets
Thank you very much! That’s such a great idea 🥰
@@TaylahRose Hey I’m going to start doing markets and I was wondering where are you bags from?
When I have done shows before I used to carry a cash box, but now I use a fanny pack. This way money is kept in a safe place and not left in car or at booth. Also, depending on design it will allow a place to put excess cash in a separate place in fanny pack.
Having a checklist is an absolute must along with an inventory list. Purchase the chalk board display or picture frames for pricing of merchandise or use price tags. If you use price tags do the folded ones that also have care instructions, your information and price. You should have your logo on the bags for purchased merchandise.
So helpful, have my first stall this weekend and I'm super nervous lol, this has so many useful tips that I will be implementing!
Thank you for making this video!
A bumbag would be ideal for you for your money. I use one for garage sales. I noticed KMart sell them in there bag section. Thank you for sharing
Honestly, Thank you so so much dear Taylah for this amazing video. I really enjoyed your video that very truly gave all the tips and information that I needed. You have put everything together so well and speaks from your heart :)
I am now doing landscape photography and would like to do markets as my main source of income. I tried two markets in Tasmania but I am from Melbourne so thinking of getting into a market that operates on week days as well where I can sell my nature and landscape photography.
I worked as a medical doctor (GP) for more than 20 years and got completely burnt out. So at the moment I enjoy traveling in my very simple camper car and doing volunteer service, sitting silent meditation retreats & living a meaningful simple life. But as I also need to make an income so after trying a few things I feel markets will be a good option as I also enjoy connecting with people :)
I might write to you again to get some advice. I have liked the video and subscribed to your channel. Thank you again Taylah.
Take care, umesh :)
Thank you for your comment Umesh! Markets are so great to get into, it’s hard to find the right fit sometimes. I know some places I just don’t do well but others I have so much clientele! That is absolutely amazing and so cool! I hope you have a great day 😁
Good advice, very helpful video
Thank you for all this info! Ive got my 1st market (my Granddaughters School Fair) in 3 weeks. I make & sell candles, soaps & shower steamers. Im nervous as, but, I keep telling myself, Christmas is around the corner, and I've got a delightful Christmas Fragrance range. I had 90 mins of zzzzzs, awake again, stuff on my mind. Do you ever set up in shopping centres? My local centre charges around $250 a day..
How did it go?
This was very helpful! Thanks!!!
This was very helpful. Thank you.
Such a great video thanks so much!!!
Thankyou ! This was so useful
Thank you for help and advice I am starting my first market in December in Ireland it is inside so please God thank you again
Great video thank you ! My first stall is tomorrow!!
I hope you had a great day! Thanks for watching :)
because u shared so much with us wanted to give u an idea, u make hair barrets and if u want a great way to display them, take one of those privacy screen 3 tri-fold things half size or full, full is better, run strips of ribbon from the top to bottom, usually 2 strips per screen and then you open the hair barrett and use the ribbon like "hair" and then u can use a whole bunch pairs etc on display, and once some are purchased, easy to fill back up during a market and the little girls can see them and point out (a lot) of choice and then hopefully more get purchased, i know someone who has them like this in my town, works amazing as well she has shorter bi fold ones on her table top with ribbon running side to side shorter but more rows available for smaller ones or any hook type to just hang over in rows, just an idea! hope this works please let me know if u try it!
Thanks for your tips, most helpful
I own a small tie dye shop and have slowly been growing but still need some tips on advertising and getting the word out any suggestions?
Love how you're very open and super informative! Is there a difference between the stock you bring to markets and the ones on your online store?
Thank you! Not really I take as much pre made stock as I can to markets currently as I never have much made in advance
Thank you for the information!
Thanks for the info 👍
Wonderfull as allways 🙂
Super awesome video with so much tips and info, thank you:) I actually live in gippsland too might bump into you at a market one day lol. We are just starting up and I was wondering what size marquees you use and also the square reader, how does that work? Thanks so much
Thank you! I have a 3x3m and that’s pretty much the standard size most people have! The oz trail deluxe is pretty good and available on sale quite regularly. Square is super easy, it’s an eftpos terminal that connects to your phone. Just download the app, sign up and that’s pretty much it! Customers can then tap or insert their card to pay with the square ☺️
@@TaylahRose thank you so much for the fast response, I really love your white marquee too
@@TaylahRose thank you for your tips and advice, I'm wanting to do an market stall this year (the first of many fingers crossed). Looking at the Altegro gazebo range do you recommned the heavy duty one or the pro-lite compact? Thanking you Maree
26 degrees is your beautiful Spring Day? WOW from Mobile, Al. USA. That is normally our coldest day in winter.
Taylah…love your vids
When selling, do you need to have duplicates of some of your pieces? Or can it all be random and first come first serve.
Thanks for the advice for sure maybe God bless you 😊ur really inspiring me
I didn’t know other countries required insurance to do these kinda fairs. In America (at least in TN) you don’t need annual insurance to do craft fairs or these types of “markets”. It’s quite literally the cost of your rent and maybe extra if you want electricity. That’s besides what it costs for you to run your own booth.
Hi, can I have some questions about the farmer's market, please? I make keychains from yarn and I also have an online shop on Etsy, on Instagram. I want to apply to sell a farmer's market but I wonder if I consider it a business or just a normal selling? And do I need business insurance to sell? Thanks
how do you display hair bows? What do u recommend for displaying them?
Why do you need insurance and what is it for exactly?
Where did you get you for your white top or branded theme for your Gazebo? :))
Thank you for the information
You’re welcome!
Thank you, very helpful!
is there any way you prevent stealing?
1037??? Sweet.
Love your place too!!!
yess what part of australia are you from? i’m from WA i’m going to my first ever markets next month as a seller. i was meant to start at the start of the year buuut miss corona had other plans
I’m from regional Victoria! 😀 markets are so much fun was so sad when rona hit 🥺 I hope you do well!
@@TaylahRose aha at least it’s given me something to keep me occupied :)
Thank you so much x
Great video! What insurance company do you go through and how do you sign up for it? And I have no idea what the million thing means with the insurance🤣
I’m with VWA they are an insurance broker I have been with aami in the past. I just emailed them or aami has options to just sign up on their website
The million part refers to how much cover you need. Extreme example here but if you were sued because your gazebo wasn’t secured and it took off in wind and seriously injured a group of children you would only be covered for what your insurance says. Most markets now require 20million insurance rather than the 10million
@@TaylahRose Thanks:)
Do you need insurance if you just use a table and not a gazebo? Just feel like sales won't even equal half of the set up
Most markets in Australia require you to have public liability insurance regardless of if you have a gazebo or not ☺️ (tripping over table leg, display falling on child etc) there’s not many that host them without the requirement these days, some offer it at an additional cost tho
What do you have as lucky dips?
Old stock of bows and scrunchies ☺️
I'm having problems with my Square reader....what's another good way to accept card payments please??
Unfortunately I’m not familiar with other eft terminals sorry! Try contacting square ive found they are very quick to help
@@TaylahRose Thank you!
I don’t have to have insurance when I go to markets
Idk where your at but it might be different depending on the country you live in
When signing up for public liability what did you put your profession under? I’m struggling to find a keyword that matches my handmade sewn items. Also what company do you recommend for public liability
I went through Victorian woodworkers association! They were fantastic. I’m not sure what I put it as, possibly small business owner, sole trader etc depends on what options there are! 💞
Hi i am setting up my first stall in august. Do you have a rough idea how much you made the first day?
Every market is different! Depends on so many things like weather, location, time of year etc. I still have bad market days even after being in business for such a long time
always have a light bit of food like make the market an excuse to eat a salad or something like yogurt or fruit
its refreshing when your standing or working in the heat all day always keep water and or juice around
Great tips! 😊
I've heard read some negative reviews on the square card reader, that they're a scam and the company can withhold the money that's owed to you. From your experience, did you have any issues with it?
Hey! I’ve never heard any bad reviews about square in any of my craft groups or from word of mouth! I’ve personally never had issues either it’s been fantastic
@@TaylahRose okay awesome, thanks so much! Also, fantastic video, thanks heaps!
Who are you insured with please 😊👍🏽
Vwa for the last two years 😊 aami before that
I have my first craft fair tomorrow
I hope you went well! 🥰
@@TaylahRose it did 😊 and these tips helped me so much
Did she say 26°?
