@Lisa Graham yikes! Do ppl know that’s what they’re buying? And don’t care or what’s the draw?

Can do, Lisa
Something only a vendor would know...
👉🏼You can stand on your feet for 8 hours straight at a craft market... ...but somehow your feet only start hurting the second you sit down in the car to go home. 😂 Or is that just me? What's something only a vendor would understand? Finish the sentence: "Something only a vendor would know is __________." Let's see who comes up with the most relatable answer. 👇

@Lisa Graham oh my goodness - that was legit lol!
…electronic payment systems.
I’m going to be doing my first ever market and it’s outdoors. There is no wifi. Is it truly reliable to use the data on my phone? It’s only 4 hours and part of a community Canada Day event. Which system do you prefer (square, PayPal, etc)? Any tricky things? Do people still want receipts printed? Any pro tips - (let’s assume the battery is fully charged - lol!) The wisdom of the group would be appreciated!!

@Jeff Rose thank you for this, Jeff - I don’t always have the best tech knowledge but safety first!!

@Jasper Dracona what I really liked about square is the that you didn’t need a subscription … the rates appear to be fair and no extra nickel and diming. It is very helpful that it appears to work in practice not just in theory, too.
Pop Up Markets?
Hi all! Does anyone have any thoughts or knowledge on doing pop ups? I feel very driven to do one or more a week but I'm not sure if I should approach a coffee shop, boutique, curio type shop.... And I don't want to pay for the space so I would have to convince the property owner that I would help drive traffic to their store. Thoughts?

I’ll be interested to hear how it goes! Personally, I would test my pitch with one or two businesses that would work, but not my #1 unicorn choice first just to see what questions or considerations they have that I may not have thought of…
Door decor (wreaths)
So, I’ve not created a formal name for my stuff…this is all part of my journey right now but one small thing turned into a bit of a passion…I’m sure you can all relate. These are a few of my most recent creations!
