W
hen we started the concept of publishing a guide to the art &
craft shows over seventeen years ago, we envisioned a
book that would be the result of a vast networking of exhibitors.
It wasn’t to be any one person’s idea of what a guide should be. After
all, who knows your work and it’s market better that you... the person
who is “in the trenches” every week... talking to customers... listening to
stories... dealing with inclement weather... tolerating unreasonable show
sponsors and a whole slew of other things that it takes to succeed in this
business.
Over the years we’ve heard many of your suggestions and if you’ve
been a subscriber for more than just a couple of years you’ve seen us
implement many of your ideas. We’ve seen this publication transform
from something that resembles our flyer... into one of the more influential
guides on America’s eastern coast. We’ve grown from a circulation
that included a few friends... to one that numbers in the thousands... and
we’re read by even more! God willing and with your support, we hope
this growth continues... but most of all, we hope to continue to be one of
the most useful tools you have in your quest to have your own business
grow with the same good fortune we’ve had. Here’s some information
you ought to know.
HOW & WHY WE PUBLISH EVERY THREE MONTHS...
We publish four times per year... Winter, Spring, Summer & Fall.
Each time we publish, we list events for up to one year in advance. The
reason we do that is because in order to get into many of the larger events,
you have to send your application in several months before the show to
be considered. For most events though the planning is only done a few
months before the event and of course we can’t publish information if
the event sponsor hasn’t even set a date. That’s why every three months
or so we delete everything that’s already happened and then put in all the
updated information that has just become available. That’s good news
because most exhibitors don’t have the funds to book so many events so
far in advance and even if you did, the chances of being accepted to every
event you apply for are minimal. Everyone’s schedule usually consists
of a few shows booked months in advance and then some they book only
a couple weeks beforehand. Every three months you’ll get a fresh batch
of shows and a new opportunity to book events!
2
HOW THE BOOK IS ORGANIZED
The book is divided into five sections.
The “Art & Crafts Showcase” is the first
section. Here you’ll read articles about
improving your business, show reviews,
advertising to help you learn more about
specific events and business opportunities,
show reviews, a listing of professional
promoters and much more!
The second section is called “Shows
At A Glance.” Here you’ll have the ability
to see a quick overview of the shows taking
place each week. They are organized first
by date, then by number of days and then by
city and show sponsor. You’ll be able to see
enough information about each show to find it
in the main listing section of the guide which
we’ll talk about in a few moments.
The third section is the “Location
Cross Reference.” In this index we break
down the state into seven regions, alphabetize
the cities and then tell you want’s happening
in each city throughout the year in date order.
This is handy when you’d like to find shows
to participate in that are close by or if you
hear about a great event in a specific city and
want to find out the details.
The fourth section is named “The
Shows.” This is the main listing section of the
guide where you’ll find complete details about
each event. If you’ve been a subscriber for

very long, you’ll see that we’ve incorporated
a new organization in this section. As we’ve
expanded the coverage of our guide, finding
shows exactly where you want them has
become a bit more difficult. So, for those
of you who only want to participate in
certain regions you’ll now find all the shows
separated by state... and then by dates within
each state. We hope this will help you spend
time looking exactly where you want to look!
We also include information for select shows
outside the SOUTHEASTERN area, you’ll
about each event to see if it meets your criteria
for an event you’d like to participate in. Since
the very nature or our work is so unique,
what works best for one exhibitor may be a
terrible situation for another. After all, if the
same thing worked for everyone, there would
only be a handful of shows each week and
everyone would be creating the same thing.
Luckily for all of us that isn’t the case. No
one could possibly participate in 3500 shows
throughout the year, but by having a great
number of choices at your fingertips, you
stand a lot better chance of making a good
match between your work and the market
you’d like to exhibit in. Additionally, no one
knows your work and your market better
than you do and no one can make a better
decision on which shows to participate in
than you can. Usually if you do well at a
show, you’ll do well at other events that have

one we’ve missed is an event we’ve been
dying to try. Once again “Where The Shows
Are!!!” comes to the rescue. Not every show
has a deadline date, in fact many just keep
taking applications until they are full. Quite a
few however require that your application be
received by a specified time. Here you’ll find
all the shows with deadlines listed first by the
actual deadline date, then the date of the show
and then you’ll see enough brief information
so that you can locate the show in the main

of missing the deadline date!

get the most up-to-date information on that
particular event.

purchase items from people they like. Other
factors can play a critical role… and we’ll
discuss those soon… but first and foremost
the customer has to like you and what he
sees before he’ll give much consideration to
purchasing. To put this in perspective, think
for a moment about things you purchase
for yourself. If you were to walk into a
store where the clerk was foul mouthed
and hadn’t bathed for a week , would you
purchase anything you didn’t absolutely
need? Chances are you wouldn’t… and if
you could get a similar product somewhere
else you’d probably go there even if it were
inconvenient! I’m not suggesting you have

to be quite this obvious to drive customers
from your booth, but even little things can
turn a customer off and send him down the
road to the next exhibitor. Here are a few
things you can do to help put more money
in your pocket
1. Make Sure You Look Your Best.
Always make sure your personal appearance
is neat and tidy. This doesn’t mean you have
to dress like you just walked out of the pages
of “Gentleman’s Quarterly” or “Vanity Fair,”
but it does mean that your clothing should be
free of stains and grease marks. Your hair
should be arranged in an attractive manner,
and if you wear cologne, make sure it’s some

by yourself and the customers are coming in
by the bus loads. Unfortunately this whole
issue may not be a problem if you aren’t
selling… so at this point let’s worry first about
middle of the road type of scent that is not
overbearing or obnoxious. Although to some
people smoking is not a habit… it’s a lifestyle
they can’t live without… try living without it
for a few hours during the show and I’ll bet
it makes a difference in your sales. If you
like to have an alcoholic drink or two during
a show (provided it’s permitted) make sure to
have some mints of some other way to cover
the odor because although some people could
care less, others would be very turned off by
the scent. Because all of us have to deal with
the reality of setup and tear-down at shows,
which may mean leaving home many hours
before an event, it may be smart to bring along
a change of clothing, a toothbrush and an
electric razor so you can do some last minute
“touch ups” before the buying crowd starts
to arrive. You’ll never please everyone with
your personal appearance, but you should
try to strike some happy medium so that
you’ll be acceptable to the vast majority of
customers.
2. Make sure your display looks
attractive and uncluttered. I know I’m
as guilty as the next guy when it comes to
this. After all, we try to stuff a whole lot of
merchandise into a very small area with next
to no time to do it. And, to make matters
worse, a lot of times we have to park so far
away that running out to re-stock can be next
to impossible especially if you’re at the show

selling enough merchandise to have to worry
about re-stocking! That begins by making
sure you booth’s appearance it pleasant
enough to make the customer comfortable
about buying. Make sure to bring along
some tarps or other coverings for your under
stock. Sometimes you can actually disguise
the under stock as part of your display by
using the covered boxes as a podium for
certain pieces of work. I saw a jeweler at
a show one time who wheeled in these tall,
skinny boxes containing all his work that then
opened up to become the walls of his booth.
At the end of the show he just simply folded
everything up again and in about 10 minutes
his walls became his containers again and he
was packed up ready to go home just a few
minutes later. Now not all of us are lucky
enough to have something that packs as easily
as jewelry, but if we use a little bit of our
creativity to consider the display alternatives
the results can be impressive!
Part of the planning for the show begins
at home. Make sure the canopy top is clean
and the legs are free of rust. If the top needs
cleaning, many of the fabric type tops can
be washed with woolite in a large washer at
a laundry mat. The plasticized tops can be
washed at home with a variety of cleaners
recommended by the manufacturer. No
matter which type canopy top you have they
can all be cleaned! Make sure to follow
the manufacturer’s recommendations…
I wouldn’t want to be responsible for
suggesting something that would destroy
your top! The canopy legs can be cleaned
too if they’ve become rusty. A quick trip to
your local automotive supply shop will allow
you to see a wide variety of rust removing
agents and protective products to prevent
the rust from coming back too soon. I know
it’s a pain in the neck to clean these things,
but the appearance of your canopy says a
lot about the way you look at an event and
that determines a lot about the amount of
product you sell. I’ve noticed that some of
the newer frames are now powder coated
rather than bare metal… this is a great idea
and looks good too! Commercial powder
coating is available for your old frame too and
surprisingly it’s not too terribly expensive in
most cases. If your frame is galvanized don’t
try painting it because paint will not adhere
to a galvanized surface.
While we’re on the subject of display,
make sure that there is no trash hanging
around the booth. Little pieces of paper from
your packaging… that wrapper from the
breakfast sandwich you had this morning…
the can from your soda you just finished…
may not seem like much, but all this can
Southeast Edition
really be an eyesore for the customer. You
wouldn’t want to purchase anything from a
store that had trash lying around and neither
do your prospective customers! Once you’re
set up and periodically throughout the day
take an objective look at your booth as a
customer would and make sure it meets with
the standards you would set if you were to
do business there.
3. Watch What You Say. I know that
I’m usually one of the first people I know to
put my foot in my mouth with comments I
might make… but even I’ll have to admit that
generally it’s not the best idea. Make sure
you give careful consideration to the things
you say at a show. You may think that what

this person from a prospect to a customer.
Although most people at a show certainly
don’t buy on price alone… otherwise they’d
be shopping in Big Lots or Wal-Mart, price
will get their attention. That’s why we
always try to have something in the front
of our booth… right at eye level… that’s an
extremely good value AND something that
is very moderately priced. Another idea is
to have a “grab bag” of things in the front
of the booth. Something the customer has
to sort through to get the goody they want.
This not only slows the customer down so
18
they can notice other things in the booth, it
also creates activity in the front of your booth
and that usually makes other shoppers curious
about what’s going on in there. Shoppers
are kind of like mosquitoes around a light…
the more you have, the more you get! I’ve
often noticed that when I walk throughout a
show and stop in someone’s booth to talk for
a moment they almost always get busy right
away even if the rest of the day was very slow.
At first I thought I was just a good omen!
And of course I like to constantly promote
that idea… but the reality is that the shoppers
don’t know why I’m standing there… they
only know that there must be something
they’re missing out on and all of a sudden
the booth is full of inquisitive customers.
Because people are naturally competitive,
the quantity of inquisitive people produces
a “sense of urgency” to buy before the other
guy does and the result… great sales!
5. Instill The Urge To Purchase Now!
That “sense of urgency” we just created a
moment ago is also an essential part of selling.
What it means, is that you’ve provided the
customer some reason to act immediately.
Whether this reason is actual, perceived, or
just an excuse you’ve provided the customer
to buy now is not nearly as important as the
fact that you’ve provided it. If a shopper
doesn’t feel this need, chances are he or she
will not buy. As a sales person part of your
job is to remind the customer of these things.
Christmas is a good example. Since presents
are expected of everyone and it occurs on
a specific date, Christmas is a great “sense
of urgency” generator and explains why
fall sales are usually so good. All the other
holiday’s were no doubt created by someone
in marketing to stimulate sales as well. Stop
by a Hallmark store sometime and look over

all the different “holidays” they’ve created. I
think they have a card for just about any day
of the week and for every purpose known to
man. It’s worthwhile to acquaint yourself
with all these days because you may be able
to use some of them to push a customer into a
sale. Along those same lines, don’t forget to
remind shoppers of birthdays, anniversaries
and so on.
Another “sense of urgency” generator
we have as exhibitors is the unique nature
of our work. Many times it’s impossible to
create two pieces exactly alike. They may
be similar in some cases, but since virtually
everything is made “one up,” the chances of
getting identical pieces is remote. Make sure
to bring this point up to the customer because
if they like what they see, this may be the
only chance they’ll ever have to purchase
this particular piece.
The mobile nature of shows can also
work in your favor. Over the years I’ve found
that selling right here in our home town is not
usually as successful as selling somewhere a
bit further away. At home a lot of the people
are under the impression they can just “stop
by” and purchase from us anytime so they
want to spend their money with people they’ll
probably never see again or may only see
occasionally. Now of course this isn’t true...
we’re not going to set up our display for one
or two people (although you’d be surprised at
the number of people that expect us to). Truth
has nothing to do with perception in this case
and the bottom line is that even when we’re
close to home I never try to make a big deal
of it. If asked a direct question about our
location I’ll naturally tell the customer but I
also make sure they understand that we don’t
have a retail location and the only place we
sell is at the shows. Sometimes this works,
but a lot of times they’ll say “do you have a
card, I’ll give you a call.” The end result is
no sale. If possible use your “out of town”

of them may call you later, the statistics are

Statistically not many people will actually
return to your booth, a few of them will and
so rather than following customers around
a show, it’s better to look around and make
note of a few landmarks that will make it
easy to find your booth. Try to come up
with something that is easy to remember and
visually very apparent. You may be right in
front of a well known local business or right
across from the town’s clock tower or just
around the corner from the newspaper stand.
If you look you’ll probably find something
easy for customers to remember. Sometimes
shows will provide a map for customers to
follow. If they do, ask for several extra copies
and with a yellow highlighter you can create
custom maps right to your booth! Not only
that, but later in the day the show sponsors
usually run out of these maps and you can
be a real hero to someone who doesn’t have
one!
7. Make It Easy For The Customer
To Pay. Car dealers and real estate agents
have this one down to a science. And in this
22
particularly competitive market today we’re
seeing them pull out all the stops! Low
interest financing... no down payments...
subsidized options... you name it and they
have it! Unfortunately most of us don’t have
he capital and resources of GM or US Homes,
but we do have tools we can use. Cash is
usually the preferred way to do business at
a show because it’s a definite indicator of a
final sales. And to make this easier for the
customer some shows actually set up ATM’s
at the event. If they do... GREAT!, But if they
don’t as is the case most of the time, take a
little time to walk around the town and find
out where they are... that way you can direct
the customers to them. You’ll be surprised
at how many locals have no idea where a
convenient ATM is let alone customers from
out of town.
Another good business tactic is to
actually have a business account set up so
you can take checks written to your business
name rather than to your personal name. Not
only does this help when it comes time to
sort our your taxes, but it lends credibility to
your business in the eyes of the customer and
suppliers. Many banks offer a “DBA” (doing
business as) account for small businesses
that offer terms similar to a personal account
rather than a full blown business account with
tons of fees. Shop around a bit and you’ll
probably find one.
If you can afford to take credit cards,
do it! If you sell only low ticket items
under $50.00 or so this may be an expensive
solution. But it also gives you more ability
to raise your prices a bit to cover the extra
expense. Credit card companies have done a
wonderful job of marketing and people will
almost always spend more money and pay
higher prices when they aren’t parting with
cash! When you think about it logically this
makes no sense at all because not only are the
customers paying more and spending more,
they have to pay interest on it too! But here’s
another area when truth and perception have
nothing to do with reality so take advantage of
the situation and make some more money.
If you don’t want to or can’t take credit
cards and you’ve made the judgement call that
the customer appears to be honest, you may
want to allow them to make payments directly
to you. This is especially advantageous if
you sell higher ticket items like an expensive
piece of furniture some jewelry or maybe a
painting. A $600.00 dollar piece is a lot more
affordable in four $150.00 payments rather
than the full purchase price today. Another
advantage is that it gives you income over
the next few months. If you get enough of
these types of purchases going, the monthly
income can be impressive. Although in my
experience most people who enter into this
kind of agreement are honest and do pay as
agreed, a few will no doubt stiff you. Try to
come up with some sort of simple contract
that you have the customer sign so they feel
obligated to pay and of course you have
some sort of proof they actually own you the
money. Collections can be difficult and you
may not really want to be bothered with them
so always make sure the amount you collect
up front is enough to cover all your costs so
that even if you loose the profit you’ve at
least collected the cost. A simple computer
program like Intuit’s “Quick Books” makes
setting up billing a real snap. Don’t ignore
this technique... countless galleries and other
distributors of artwork have driven up prices
substantially and made fortunes by taking
payments... you can too!
Another technique you can use
particularly with fine art is leasing your
work. Many times a business may not want
the permanency of a “collection,” but does
want the ambiance that original work can
provide. Here is an excellent opportunity for
you to make money on your work and still
retain ownership! Thousands of businesses
lease machines, cars, computers, plants and
just about everything else you can think of...
why not decor too! Not only does it allow
them to decorate with good taste, it allows
them to do it at a fraction of the cost and
once they get tired of the look.... it’s easy to
change! Best of all once they get sick of the
look you’ve provided you get the piece back
in your hands ready to lease to someone else
or to sell outright! You can also offer a buyout
price at the end of the lease if the company
decides to keep the work. Here again you’ll
need to create a contract with the customer
establishing terms, ownership and who’s
responsible for the work while it’s out of
your possession etc... and you’ll have to set
up a billing system... but the potential profit
is outstanding and it could be yours!
“Popping The Top” on sales does
usually require taking a real objective look at
what you’re doing now and possibly making
some changes. And... I’d caution you NOT
to change those things that do work for you
and you’re happy with. BUT, if you want
to increase your sales or give them an extra
little push, then give some thought to some
of the suggestions I’ve made. It may require
a little thinking “outside of the box.” But a
wise salesman once told me... “If you want
things to continue the way they are, keep
doing the things your doing now... If you
want things to change, it’s up to you to make
the change” they choice is yours. Chances
are if you were completely happy with your
sales you would have never read this far in
this article and with a new season right on
the horizon along with all the big economic
changes that have taken place recently, this is
a great time to giving some serious thought to
your future plans! Why not “Pop The Top”
on sales this coming year!

F
Is Ready... By
What’s Next?
I
f you’re like most of us, you’ve put a lot of thought and probably a fair amount of
resources both financially and spiritually into your work. Finally you’ve arrived
at something you’re proud to create and something you think will be competitive
in the market... but now what? How can I turn my idea into a steady stream of
earnings? Here at “Where The Shows Are!!!” we don’t have all the answers, but we
have seen quite a few people turn their dreams into reality and as the old proverbial
saying goes... “there’s more than one way to skin a cat!”
The idea of “more than one way” is the key to success for most of us. Of course
since you’re probably already participating in events, the first thing that comes to
mind is selecting some shows and setting up your booth. That’s certainly one way
to do it... and if you choose that route then you’ll want to do everything you can
to make sure this part of your business is a success. Make certain you create an
interesting display that shows off your work in the best possible light... make sure
you tell customers exactly how they might use your work to their benefit... have a
friendly atmosphere conducive to buying... the list goes on and on. In fact, if you
want to get more details on this aspect of marketing your work then make sure to
read the other article in this edition called “Pop the Top on Sales.” There are an
incredible amount of things you can do to maximize your work.
One of the nice things about owning your own business is that you’re not
limited to any one particular way of making sure to turn your creativity into income.
Participating in shows is an important part of a marketing plan... but to create a solid
base of income it shouldn’t be the ONLY part of your plan. The advantage you have
by participating art or craft shows is that they allow you a place where you can come
in contact with a great number of people... and to find those individuals who are
interested in the work you do and the products you create. There are two ways you
can look at these people... as either the end of the sale... or as the beginning. If you
look at this relationship as the “end result” then of course you take your money and
go home. Next week there will be more customers and more sales... hopefully. But
if you look at the relationship you’ve created as the beginning of several sales then
you’ll have a constant flow of prospects to continue to buy your work.

There are some definite disadvantages
of using shows as an exclusive way to sell
your work, and exhibitors are always asking
me how to smooth out the ups and downs of
their business. Certainly they’ll still exist
no matter what tact you take... it’s simply
the nature of business and sales... but it’s
not necessary to ride the wild roller coaster
ride that shows alone can create. My opinion
has always been to use art and craft shows
th
as a springboard to additional sales rather
than as an end in itself. Having a customer
who has bought from you in the past is a
very valuable commodity. It’s up to you to
seize the opportunity presented to you and
capitalize on it. Make sure to keep a list
of past customers so you can invite them
to future events, keep them posted on new
work you’ve created, let them know about
interesting things you’ve found at other

shows or maybe even something exciting
you’ve found in your travels to other shows.
Creating an ongoing interest in you and your
work will also create future sales.

displaying your work. Possibly they have a
business or civic connection where you could
exhibit. Or... if they really like your work,
they may be interested in having a home party
or a business luncheon where your work is
featured. If you don’t like this kind of thing,
fine that’s up to you... but there is a lot of
money to be made using the home party/
luncheon idea, just ask Tupperware, Mary
Kay, Christmas Around the World or hundreds
of other companies that make millions a year
using this simple idea. The nice thing is you
can use this marketing technique to fill in a
dead weekend or time during the week. If
you’re looking for a way to structure the
event, just get a Tupperware party manual
or one of the other guides. These people are
experts in the field and you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
Galleries are another approach that can
supplement sales. Don’t be discouraged if the
first few you talk to don’t want to handle your
work. Believe me, there are as many different
types of galleries as there are different types
of shows. In this category of retail outlets
there is a range of venues all the way from
little hand craft consignment shops to places
that exhibit the fine art work of the great
masters! Just as you’ll have to look to find
a show that meets your needs, you can find a
gallery that will do the same. The financial
arrangements here are as vast as the variety
of work represented. The main thing to look
for is a place offering a fair deal for you.
Certainly you need to part with enough of
the profits to make the sale enticing for the
gallery... but you don’t want to cut yourself
short here either. If you can’t make a decent
profit it’s not worth your while regardless of
what you may be told. Additionally, it is worth
your while to research the reputation of the
place you intend to do business with. Make

prospect for business. And sure you could
make a bunch of sales calls yourself too... but
the advantage here is that the cost of making
those calls is divided among several different
businesses rather an absorbed by one person.
It may not be worth your while to drive from
Ft. Myers, FL to Savannah to meet with a shop
owner about handling your widget... but it’s
well worth time for someone representing a
couple of dozen people such as yourself. It
can also be difficult for you to really promote
your product yourself without sounding like a
braggart. A third party can do this on a sales
call and it sounds perfectly fine.
Like the galleries, you’ll want to find
out all you can about any sales rep you may
decide to partner with. You’ll want to have
a trusting relationship with the rep and make
certain he or she is looking out for your
best interests as well as their own. You also
want to make sure the rep is not over stating
your production capability or your ability
to produce the work at what would be slave
wages. I know of a least two exhibitors who
landed a big account with a national restaurant
chain that features a craft area as you walk
in the door. It sounded like a great deal at
the onset... but after employing everyone
they could think of to make the products
and to deliver on time, and then dealing with
delays in getting paid, the end result was a
far cry from the initial concept of the plan.
Don’t allow someone else to push you into
a deal that doesn’t seem to be favorable and
take the time to really figure out how you’ll
produce enough product before you sign on
the dotted line!
Trader type of radio and TV shows can
be another source of income and an additional
way to market your work. Although most
radio and TV stations would much rather
have you simply pay for advertising and sell
your work... inevitably many stations wind
up with time they can’t sell. At the cost
of running a production facility these days
no one can just let that time pass so to fill
it they’ll occasionally take some things on
concession. Unless your product is selling
like hot cakes and the station is making
money hand over fist... you’re probably not
going to get exposure on the evening news or
during radio drive time... but the possibility
of making some sales is good for both you
and the station. If you’ve ever suffered from
insomnia or been up late driving to some
show in the middle of nowhere I’m sure
you’ve heard or seen some of these types of
promotions.
Fund raisers can be another great way to
make money. Civic organizations, schools,
clubs, scouts, sports teams and many more
type of organizations are constantly trying
to figure out a way to make money. Why
not consider making your product part of a
solution for them and yourself at the same
time. The possibilities are only limited by
your imagination. Here again the formula for
success has been laid out by plenty of people
who came before you. If you spend some
time doing a bit of research, chances are you
can adapt many ideas to your products. It’s
also possible to just simply call a company
you’ve heard about that is doing fund raisers
and ask them to send you information. You
may also even want to consider going in on
this with another exhibitor or two so you
have a wider array of products you can offer.
I was involved with an elementary school
fund raiser when my kids were in school
and I was just absolutely amazed how much
money changed hands and the level of profit
there is to be made!
Another thought for additional sales is to
start a “club” of buyers. I’m sure you’ve been
approached by Gevalia Coffee or BMG Music
club or Book of the Month Club and others.
This doesn’t work with all products we make,
but it does lend itself to some. In this scenario
you target people who want to automatically
receive variations of your product on a regular
basis. Certainly you’ll have to be imaginative
to keep the interest going but that can be done
with a bit of planning and of course by virtue
of the fact you’ll doubtlessly have turnover in
your customer base. Newer customers would
be candidates for all your different products
while those that have been with you for some
time would be a bit more of a challenge. If
however you produce a consumable then
the problem is solved for repeat offers.
This idea would work with something like
“candle of the month”, “personal care items”
(soaps, body oils etc.), pottery, some country
crafts, hot sauces... even jewelry could be a
possibility. So you don’t get stuck with a
lot of deadbeat sales, make sure you let the
customer know what is coming next and when
it will be arriving. You’ll also want to have
pre-authorization on a credit card so you can
ensure payment. None of us are large enough
to absorb thousands of dollars in losses by
handling this any other way.
If you’re in the fine art business with
something like painting or sculpture, you
may want to consider renting your work to
businesses or individuals. Although there
are a few true collectors out there, the vast
majority of people will be using your work
as a decor accent or maybe even a focal piece
to set a theme in their home or business. The
reality is however that these tastes change
over time. What appeals to someone this
month may become old hat within a relatively
short time. And in addition, businesses that
have a regular clientele have to constantly
keep a fresh look and so that mean having
constant change to the decor. These are great
candidates for art rental. After all... why pay
full price for something you only plan on
using for a few months? If it turns out the
customer really likes the piece and wants to
keep it permanently then fine... you can have

a pre-arranged buy-out price. If on the other
hand they’d just like to rotate the work that’s
no problem either. Just remove the piece from
business “A” and replace it with a piece you
had in business “B”. “A” and “B” just simply
switch out decor and you have a constant
stream of income. You can even have various
tiers of the service based on whether you’re
using originals or prints. Everyone comes
out a winner in this situation.
Keeping your cash flowing during
tight economic times is a challenge for all
businesses, but it’s especially challenging for
businesses such as ours where all of us deal in
the “wants” business instead of the “needs”
business. Of course it’s great if you can make
all the income you need by doing a couple
of shows per month on the weekends... but
right now that can be difficult for many of us.
Unusual times such as those we’re currently
experiencing requires unusual thinking in
order to stay afloat. Think a bit outside the
box, put those thoughts to work and we should
all be around to share “business as usual”
when it returns to the shows!

n the last issue I took a few moments
before delving into the show reviews
to speak a bit about surviving tough
economic times. If you’ve been in the
business for any length of time then you
know that this isn’t the first time most of us
have faced an economic crisis. In this issue
I’ve specifically focused on writing articles
designed to get you thinking outside of the
box about ways to make money in the arts
and ways to sharpen your chances of actually
making the sale once you get in contact with
a customer. If you’re new to the shows... then
this information will be extremely valuable
to you. If you’ve been around for a while,
it’s always good to review what you do know
because all of us forget what we already know
from time to time. In fact, “forgetting” what
we already know and not employing it to our
fullest advantage is one of the leading causes
in declines of sales. Getting back to the basics
or what made you successful in the first place
will usually save the day when economic hard
times such as we’re experiencing now greets
you at the door! The moral of the story... if
you haven’t read the other articles in this
edition... please do yourself a favor and take
a moment to read them.
As I write this section, the fall season
is only a few weeks old... and already
we’ve visited quite a few shows all over the
southeast. Those of you who have seen us
at the shows have been quite generous with
your information and as usually we try to
pass on what sounds good! One impression
I have personally is that there seems to be
quite a bit of inconsistency among shows.
It doesn’t seem to matter whether the event
is a fine art show or a craft show... a private
promoter or an independent show. I’ll go to
an event on a Saturday afternoon and sales
are going great! Then Sunday morning I’ll
take off for another very similar show and I
arrive to find half the exhibitors decided to
pack up early because sales were so slow.
I can see this happening in first or second
year shows without a track record... but I’m
still trying to find an explanation why I’m
seeing this with long term events with good
track records.
I guess one of these days I’ll get a crystal
ball that tells me the truth all the time and
allows me to only pick the most successful
events! Until that time I guess I’ll just keep
trying to make the best educated guesses I
can. The economy can change the “rules of
engagement” and so maybe we have to throw
out the old book and start writing a new one.
We still do see at least some consistency
between those events that will spend a fair
amount of money on advertising... and those
shows who tend to rely on “word of mouth”
or “reputation” or maybe a few Public Service
Announcements on the local radio station.
All too often these events take a nose dive
quickly... even if they’ve been successful in

Certainly that’s not a guarantee or a fantastic
show... but it’s a clear indication these show
sponsors have the right idea! Now on with

I attend one of them I try to be prepared for
just about anything. Add those considerations
to the fact that this was the first time I’d ever
been to the Lakewood Ranch show and you
can understand my “prepare for anything”
attitude. I set my GPS and headed off down
the road! Once I arrived it was clear to see
that Lakewood Ranch is not actually a “ranch”
at all... but a nice, upscale shopping center.

I put my bug spray and fire ant killer back in
the car and set out to visit all the booths.
If you’ve been around the show circuit
in the south at all, you know Helayne Stillings
and American Craft Endeavors is one of the
most established names in the business and
the events they sponsor are also some of the
more consistent shows. Although I really
didn’t know exactly what to expect... it was
actually a pretty good bet that the show would
be a decent one. As I had said earlier though...
early season does bring it’s surprises! Luckily
the surprises this show had were mostly all
pleasant ones. I saw quite a few people who
had just dusted off their display shelves and
were putting the canopies up again for the
first time since the spring season ended... it
was nice to see so many familiar faces. Of
course that usually is a good sign because it
means at least quite a few of us had decided
this show was well worth the risk.
The setup is pretty straight forward and
the access is easy. With booths down the
middle of the street back to back, it doesn’t

allow for a lot of understock behind the
booth, but it does allow for a nice traffic flow
of customers and easier access for the setup
in the morning as well as teardown once the
show is over. I can tell you that I’ve been
stuck in many a traffic jam in a show at 5:00pm
on Sunday. The shopping center appears to

drainage too (we do have to consider rain
this time of year) and with the booths in the
middle of the street most of the water flow
from an afternoon thunderstorm will run off
to the sides rather than right down the middle
of your display. This doesn’t sound like a big
consideration until you’ve been in a show
where your neighbor’s display ended up in
your booth because it floated there! At about
4:30pm everyone in this show got a chance
to test that theory!
I had a chance to talk to a significant
number of exhibitors to see how they were
doing and almost everyone told me they
thought the show was well worth the entry
fee and sales were reasonably good especially
for the time of year. Although the show had
primarily higher end crafts, a few fine artists
could be found here and there too. The nice
thing was that everything appeared to be
selling... and although everyone reported
Saturday’s sales as better than Sunday... I saw
just about every variety of work making it’s
way to the customer’s parking area.
Most people said they would return to
the show again next year so that’s always
the best sign of an event’s success. And
although exhibitors can’t always agree
on which promoter they like better than
another... I think everyone can agree that
American Craft Endeavors does know how
to put on a well planned, carefully juried,

Here’s another one of our early season
favorites... but last year (2007) I was just
about ready to give up on the show. The
park was under a lot of construction with
piles of dirt everywhere... the exit at the
Interstate was blocked and the local radio
stations were telling everyone that the festival
had been cancelled. As a result attendance
was mediocre at best and sales were dismal
according to many of the exhibitors I had a
chance to talk to. In fact in my review of
the show last year I mentioned that there
were quite a few factors contributing to the
slow sales. The saving grace last year and of
course every September, is that expectations
are low so when you have a year with sub par
performance it’s just written off as “typical”
for this time of the season.
That was the bad news last year... but
here’s the good news this year! The weather
was great, the park was ship shape and the
critical exit off of I-95 was completed. Local
radio stations were spreading the news that

the show was indeed happening and all was
well with the world. And all the exhibitors
there this year will indeed confirm that all IS
well with the world of the Riverside Avondale
Art Show. As I’m sure you can see by the
pictures I’ve included in this review... the
crowds showed up both Saturday and Sunday
to shop and most importantly purchase the
work on display. The show is primarily an
art show, but there are always about 25 or so
booths of quality crafts too... and everything
was leaving in bags!
I spoke to a jeweler I see at shows all
over the south and she told me her booth was
just about sold out. I visited with a potter

who told me all she had left were a few small
pieces and a couple of big ones... everything
else in between was gone. The photographers
had done well and so had quite a few of the
oil and acrylic people. I also had a chance to
speak with the food vendors and they were
doing better than expected as well. WOW...
what a change from last year when everyone
was crying the blues and ready to pack up
and go home.
Of course just like the stock market, this
34
year’s sales may not be an indicator of next
year’s performance, but historically with the
exception of last year, this show has always
been well worth doing and although it seems
as though sales were definitely booming this
year... previous years have seen enough work
leaving with shoppers that the rate of returning
exhibitors is always high. With a relatively
easy load in, friendly staff and decent sales
throughout the years... the RAP show is
considered by many to be a “traditional”
season opener. Since everyone seemed to
do so good this year, hopefully everything is
back to normal and you’ll want to consider it
for your schedule next year!

well worth considering. The committee is
very careful in selecting a group of quality

everyone has a good chance to sell. Of

we still steady and in fact a few exhibitors
told us they had a really great show! One of
the problems of being a publisher of a show
guide is that the people who are having a very
slow show are the ones who have plenty of
time to talk to you and the exhibitors who
are actually doing quite well have no time
at all... so of course the impression one gets
can be somewhat off as to the real results of
the show. As an exhibitor chatting with other
participants about events they’ve attended
you have to be aware of the same issues.

We’ve been advertising this show ever
since it started three years ago and this is
the first time we’ve ever been able to visit
the event. Largo Central Park is a nice, easy
to find park right in the center of the town
of Largo. It has great exposure to main
highways, plenty of parking and offers an
easy load in for everyone who participates.
I was only at the show for about two hours,
but there did seem like a relatively steady
flow of people throughout the time I was
there and exhibitors told me in general the
sales wouldn’t set the world on fire, but
many said they would consider returning
again next year and that’s usually a pretty
good sign for the event. The music portion
of the show complimented the art & crafts
section by being in a completely separate
area of the park. The bad thing is that you
don’t necessarily get the advantage of impulse
36
sales from people who came just to see the
music, but the good thing is that most of the
prospective customers who did come over
to the craft section did so because they were
actually interested in doing some shopping.
And... although you could hear the music
without a problem, the sound was far enough
away so as not to be deafening all day long.
I remember participating in a music/ craft
show in south Florida one fall and I swear I
thought I might never hear normally again.
We were set up right next to the stage and I
was praying for a power failure of some kind.
Unfortunately it never came.
After three years this show is beginning
to come along nicely although it would
certainly be nice to see a few more customers
in the crafts area. Charla and the group of
people who sponsor the event seem to be
sincerely interested in improving the show
any way they can and it appears as though they
may be open to suggestions. The economy
being what it is, it’s really a bit difficult to
figure out exactly what to do to get people to
spend more of their money... if you’ve got an
idea by all means let me know! Having been
to a few shows much more expensive than this
one over the last few weeks I can however
tell you that the turnout and the sales we’re
pretty respectable all things considered. Of
course all of us would like to spend $60.00
for an entry fee and do $5000 in sales... but
of course then we wake up and realize it was
just a dream. Once you’ve had your first cup
of coffee and sit back to assess the reality of
this show I think you’ll agree with me it’s
well worth considering for another year...
and chances are it will just get better with
every passing year!

We visited Thornbrook Village last year
and got to the show just in time to experience
the monsoon that drenched everyone...
especially the booth in the inner courtyard
that sits right above the main storm drain!
This seems like a great location until there’s
a downpour. Given that the rain caused such
a bust last year, we thought it would only be
fair to visit again this year.
Although there were a few clouds in
the sky, luckily this year the weather held
off and the customers didn’t forget this was a
nice, worthwhile show to go and buy things!
I was at the show for a few hours, but most
exhibitors told me there was a steady flow
of traffic throughout the two days of the
event. Crowds are very difficult to estimate
for this one because there are so many nooks
and crannies throughout the Thornbrook
Shopping Center where the show takes place.
This is both an advantage and a disadvantage
because certainly the shopper gets literally
surrounded by all kinds of art and that’s good
because it gives the feeling of being an even
bigger show than it actually is and it also gives
the impression there are a lot more people
there than they actually have. On the other
hand, if a potential customer wants to find
you again then that’s difficult too because
navigating the place when it’s full of canopies
and art is very difficult.
The show is clearly a fine art show...

although there weren’t a lot of real expensive
pieces selling that I saw. Most sales seemed
to be in the low to medium price range. The
people who participate fall into two distinct
categories... about half are the professionals
we see at events all over the south... and the
other half are the people who must be either
locals or members of the art league. The
difference is very apparent. Many of the
people set up under the eves of the buildings
didn’t have professional displays and clearly
didn’t have much back up stock.
The obvious advantage to this show is
that work does sell, respectable crowds of
people do attend and shop and the selection
of work is well juried without too much of
any one thing. The obvious disadvantage
is load in and teardown. If you happen to
be one of the people with a booth located in
the courtyard area or under the eves of one
of the buildings there is no easy way to get
your work and display from your truck or car
to the area you have to set up. Make sure to
bring a good hand cart and maybe even some
extra help if you’ve got heavy things. Another
possibility is when you apply, make sure to
request one of the outer areas for your booth.
The bad part is you’ll probably get a little
less traffic than if you were in the courtyard
area, but you’ll also still be able to walk once
teardown is complete.
In the big picture, the Thornbrook
Village show is a worthwhile event to
participate in and delivers a reliable event
for many exhibitors. I see a lot of the same
faces every year so it’s clear they must be
making money or they would either stay
home or apply to an alternative event. I
didn’t see big gobs of money being spent...
but quite a few smaller amounts were being
spent consistently throughout the day and
the complete range of work. Pencil this one
in to your tentative schedule when you’re
looking for an early season show around the
Gainesville area.
