WHAT’S IT LIKE SELLING AT A VENDORS MARKET 

Have you ever considered what it’s like to sell at a market? 

Perhaps you are thinking about launching a new product and would like to know some tricks to promote sales. Maybe you are just curious, wondering what it’s like to be on the other side and what goes through a seller's mind. 

Everyone has engaged with market traders before. Whether you feel you are being constantly watched, pressured into purchasing, or able to browse easily, we have all come into contact with market vendors.

You may love them or hate them, but you can generally find some pretty unique things being sold.  

Here we will cover what it’s like to be a seller at a market, covering both the highs and the lows of selling physical products in person. As you dive deeper into my ten-week series, we will share the tips and tricks we have learned over several years to help increase our vendor's market sales. 

WHAT IT’S LIKE BEING A MARKET SELLER - BEHIND THE SCENES

In summary, markets can be pretty hit-and-miss.

On a good day, the people attending are your exact audience. They relate to your brand, are interested to find out more, engage in conversation, and, most importantly, buy!

Before you think that vendor markets are accessible, let me warn you that if you get it wrong and the audience is not the one you wished for, you can end up standing around for hours without making any sales whatsoever. Not only can this be a waste of your time, but it can also be expensive and ultimately demoralizing. 

With this in mind, what should you consider before trading at a market?

Comment below and let me know from your experience what are the general first impressions you have when you pick a market. How do you go about?
