We have MANY small shows around here. Every rural school seems to use a craft show as a fundraiser. They charge $25 booth fee & do a pancake breakfast or chili lunch to draw a crowd. It really is a good fundraiser for them, and I have done well at several shows when I was the only soap maker.
I know there are HUGE differences in soap styles & product offerings. But I always hesitate to do a show that may draw a crowd of 100-200 when there is another soap vender, scentsy, pink zebra, candles & what ever other smelly things you can imagine! I feel customers go into scent over load & get tired of sniffing products. 1 out of 5 booths are something to sniff is too much IMO.
Any other thoughts???
