Hi there,
I am not selling at all on Folksy and to boost my sales I think I need to get out and about and do some craft fairs so that I can meet people.
As I have never done this before does anyone know any reasonably busy craft fairs in and around the Yorkshire area which I could enquire about?
Many thanks
Melanie
Hi Melanie,
York Fair Stall Holders have an FB page which lets you know whats going on in that area craft fair wise, and from there you can probably find out about the wider area.
I belong to York Makers, but you have to live in York to be part of that group Im afraid. You just have to keep plugging away until you find the right one. I like doing craft fairs as well as my shop. They can be a risk, but its one other platform to sell from, and you meet and hear from your buyers face to face. Good luck.
Hi Petra,
Thank you so much for the information. It’s all completely new to me but I’ll keep looking until I find the right one and like you say, it’s trial and error. I don’t want to pay too much for a stall as I’m not sure if my prints will even sell but unless I give it a go I won’t find out.
Many thanks
Melanie
