Title: And so it begins.... Post by: nakedtruthbeauty on February 09, 2010, 11:09:32 PM It's 2 months since my last fair, but I'm off again tomorrow. Well actually I'm trying something new and going into a workplace. It's a massive call centre and head office in one, so plenty of footfall, so we'll see how we go. Had a manically busy couple of days making stock, rebranding labels, checking I've got everything I need blah blah. Anyhow, early start, so I'll catch up with you all tomorrow eve and let you know how it goes. Oh and I'm trying a cakestand I borrowed for my display (not practiced tho, hmm), so we'll see how that looks. Nite xx

I work in a massive office with hundreds of people but hardly anyone knows what I do! It's harder for a man, I think. Kevin x Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: Suzanne on February 10, 2010, 10:35:31 AM Good luck. I am sure it will go really well for you.

Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: Suegardner on February 10, 2010, 09:19:04 PM I was wondering whether you had a card machine to take, or was everyone paying in cash. Myself and Joy nearly did a workplace last year (we didnt end up doing it) and I wondered whether people may not have had cash on them. Just seen your other thread and it looks like you did really really well :buttrf:
Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: nakedtruthbeauty on February 10, 2010, 09:23:15 PM Hi Sue, it's got to be worth a go. I'm delighted with how well it went. There was a cash machine on site, so no probs just taking cash and cheques, although I did have some near misses with nearly running out of change (never come near before) cos people kept giving me £20 notes fresh from the ATM! It was £50 for the stall which is the most I've paid but it was a big venue.

Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: Suegardner on February 10, 2010, 09:30:09 PM Ah-yes I forget they often have cash machines at the big places-fantastic that you did well - on my first ever craft stall (and nearly my last) I had a lovely bag of change ready and ended up with two sales in the whole day LOL
Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: nakedtruthbeauty on February 10, 2010, 09:33:16 PM Ha ha! Poor you, sure things have gone from strength to strength tho. :buttrf:
Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: Helen on February 10, 2010, 09:46:42 PM Hey NT, I missed this yesterday but at least it spared me from wondering how it went all day, :mwaha: Wonderful and good for you NT ;D :buttrf:
Sue, thank goodness you weren't put off with that first one :) Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: Suegardner on February 10, 2010, 10:27:31 PM Well, actually.... secretly I have in fact only done one other which was a two hour evening do and I took 40x what I did that first day LOL. Thats all I have done though cos I'm chicken!
Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: madpiano on February 11, 2010, 08:55:01 AM hmm - it made me wonder if that isn't just the prefect way for marketing and selling. We used to have a sandwich lady come in and I was thinking, maybe I need to pop into my old workplace one day and make a stall there. Beats standing in the rain at a farmer's market...
Title: Re: And so it begins.... Post by: Hayley on February 11, 2010, 09:02:49 AM Well done NTB glad you did well :buttrf:
