Wish me luck!

Hope it went well for you. I hope to have my first sale sometime. I did make some nice Christmas stuff for family. They have friends who are now requesting things made for them. Nice when a hobby can make you a bit of money on top of the satisfaction of making something nice.

Hope it went well Dan! Bet you listened to some good music to keep your mojo moving!

No, I have just been busy with other things. It was just an ok day. Great music, the weather was beautiful, but as I feared, folks came to hear good music, not buy crafts. I did about $400, and my buddy didn't sell a thing.
Most of my sales were paid by credit card. I am using the Square reader on my iPad. I have a separate WiFi hot spot. For those of you planning to do shows, I highly recommend it. The reader is free. It can be used on any smart phone or tablet. There are no monthly fees, just 2.75% per transaction. They automatically deposit it into your bank account. It's great!
I was also approached to do another show in June which I am considering. Lots of compliments and oohs and aaas, but not a lot sales. I hope Tommy did better!

Not bad for a show close to home.

congrats Dan,
$ 400 sounds pretty good to me for one day, right?

[Keefie]

Well done Dan, $400 isn't bad for a days sales.  I looked into that "Square card reader" but unfortunately it's not for use in the U.K.

Pretty good result for the day Dan. Good for you. At least you wouldn't have a heavy fuel bill digging into your profits. Hope you didn't spend it all on Blues CDs. .

$400 is way better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick 
My son and I are just getting into the reader for our phones.

Doesn't sound like a bad start Dan.  I am sure you had a good showing because there aren't many better than you.  I use the square reader for my Handgun safety classes also.  Works like a charm for me.

Thanks everyone! I know I would of done better if this was a craft show where people are coming to buy crafts, so I guess I need to concentrate on the right type of shows.
