A Checklist of Things to Bring to the Bazaar
- Enough Inventory for 2 days - No early tear downs are permitted
- Your Tent - Unless your space includes one from us
- Gridwall, Tables, Racks, Zipties, Shelving, etc.
- We highly suggest weights for your tents - it might be a little windy
- There is no divider between you and your neighbor, this is up to you.
- Pricing gun, sticker tags, signage, etc.
- Tablecloths and weights
- Weights for your displays - pennies in plastic bags wrapped in fabric work well or rocks
- BUSINESS CARDS OR FLYERS
- EMAIL LIST - if they don't buy today, make sure you have a way to contact them
- Business name banner or sign
- Plenty of cash change, and a money holder (we suggest lots of $1 and $5) No change made on site.
- Your laptop or cc machine. We will do our best to provide wifi, but cannot promise it will work with your computer. Please be prepared.
- Promotional items - you may promote other shows you are participating in
- Sales book, calculator, don't forget, it's easier if you add sales tax into your pricing.
- bags, packaging, for purchases
- Sunscreen, umbrella, hand sanitizer, baby wipes, sunglasses, a jacket/sweater (gets chilly at night)
- Snacks + drinks (we will have some special offers from the Bishop Arts Merchants coming soon!)
- comfortable shoes/clothes
- a smile and good attitude. Grumpy pants in the booth doesn't sell, we promise =)
- Offer discounts or specials, this gives people a reason to buy NOW, rather than later.
