some for the show

The show was a disappointment. Overall sales were okay, but the vast majority of the sales were made in 2 hrs on Saturday (between 1 and 3 pm). Sunday's sales were 10% of Saturdays sales. At least 40% of my sales were to other vendors, it's great that they are supporting me, but that's a really bad sign for the show.

Sigh, there's always next year. :)

Was it a place you usually set up at?
If so, perhaps the usual people who go there already have purchased the things they like in the past.
That was the experience I had last year at a Farmers Market where I started selling. 
The first Sunday there I did almost $300.  The following Sunday sales became less and less each time.
Limited customer base was my situation.

This was an annual show in the town I live in (pop 60,000). A number of the attendees' also go the the Farmers market I was selling at, so there is some crossover. My most expensive item sold was $20, and I sold a bunch of them. I know that many of the major retailers are panicking because black Friday just didn't happen. I went to Wal-mart Monday to get a new phone and the black Friday deals were still in effect, in years past if you missed BF you were just SOL.

    It's a brave new world out there, and we're just going to have to adapt.
