Unspoken rules of vending at craft fairs

In this video, we’re covering 10 unspoken rules of vending at craft fairs and markets. Whether it’s your very first craft show or your fiftieth, there are guidelines in the vendor contract… and then there are the rules nobody actually writes down. Break them, and you risk frustrating your neighbors, turning off customers, or even getting blacklisted by organizers. We'll cover booth etiquette, setup, tear-down, and how to be an incredible neighbor so your fellow vendors love you, and event organizers keep inviting you back. #craftfair #marketprep #handmadebusiness #vendortips #smallbusinessowner Related videos to watch next: The Craft Show Blueprint 5-part series (playlist):    • The Craft Show Blueprint   How to talk to customers at your next craft fair:    • How to talk to customers at your next craf...   Video Contents 0:00 – Intro 0:38 – Unspoken rule #1: Don't no-show 1:25 – Unspoken rule #2: Unload quickly and move out of the way 2:11 – Unspoken rule #3: Keep your sidewalls down 3:56 – Unspoken rule #4: Corral friends and family 5:35 – Unspoken rule #5: Stay within your boundaries 6:47 – Unspoken rule #6: Keep the music down 8:38 – Unspoken rule #7: Don't poach customers 10:05 – Unspoken rule #8: Pause convos when customers arrive 10:49 – Unspoken rule #9: Never pack up early 12:28 – Unspoken rule #10: Vendors help vendors! 13:48 – Final thoughts 14:07 – Outro Shop & Social Links Follow on Instagram:   / phoenixsupplyco   Shop art prints, greeting cards, and accessories: https://www.phoenixsupply.co/ Join my email list: https://www.phoenixsupply.co/mailing-...
