When Booking Events

When looking for events to do locally I have some tips for you that I have learned along the way. You do need to be careful in the events you choose. Events can put you into debt if you are not picking them wisely.

1. Do not book an event that costs more than $100 UNLESS you KNOW the event is amazing!!
2. Ask how many years they have done this particular event
3. How many vendors will be there

• You do NOT want to be part of an event that has TONS of vendors. That means most guests will never even get to your booth. It also means that guests have to decide which booth they will be spending their $40 at.  

4. When choosing an event if you decide on one that is geared towards children remember that most guests choose to spend money on their children. Face painting, food and activities. BUT... this is a great way to book parties and to get your name out there. 

5. Ask for the area that has the highest traffic at event to set your booth up at. Corner booths, by bathrooms or the food.

6. ALWAYS give the coordinator a thank you gift. This builds the relationship, advertises for you and helps them remember YOU for the next event they coordinate.
