How to Craft Fair - Tips & tricks for your next craft market

For more than 10 years, I was a craft fair vendor and craft show organizer. By interacting with thousands of artists, crafters, and makers throughout the years, I've been able to have a hands-on experience with countless craft booths. 

Since retiring from organizing craft markets, I have now shifted my focus to providing both vendors & organizers with the tips & tricks to ensure their next show is a success. This will be delivered on my YouTube channel. I hope you visit the channel, enjoy the tutorials, and subscribe!

I asked 18,000 artists, crafters, and makers to complete a 30-question survey based on what it's like to participate in an art and craft fair.

I had three goals with this survey. The first was to provide newer vendors with insight on what the majority of vendors typically do in various situations to give them a head start in getting established with their business. The second goal was to identify any surprises, or to debunk common misconceptions about what vendors prefer at an event. Finally, my third goal was to provide craft fair organizers with priceless information when it comes to what vendors expect when they attend a show.

During my videos, I dive right into the subject matter. As a huge fan of YouTube myself, I never enjoyed videos that fill up runtimes with "fluff" and filler. I will always do my best to keep my videos clear & concise so that they're packed full of the info you were promised when you clicked on the video.

For a great example, check out my 101 Craft Fair Tips video, the single-most comprehensive craft fair tutorial video available on YouTube. 

This video shows you everything you need to know for before, during, and after a craft fair. Great for beginners and veterans alike!
