Just a heads up that if you've signed up to my free 3 day christmas fair challenge tomorrows video might not be available until mid morning.

I recorded it early this morning at the studio but my upload speed there is 0.3mbps so it has so far taken 6 1/2 hours to get to 36%! And that's with my new router! 🤦🏼‍♀️

I'm hoping that it will get a spurt on overnight and be ready in the morning but thought I should warn you just in case!

Thank you for your patience.

Lots of love

Christmas fair season is nearly upon us so it pays to be prepared for what can be a gruelling round of multiple fairs.

If we don't prepare properly we can burn out, run out of steam and all the effort we have gone to leading up to this busy time will have been for nothing.

My FREE 3 day challenge is a series of 3 videos (each about 20 minutes long) that will take you through all you need to know with regards to upgrading your table display to make it festive, getting your Christmas products and pricing up to scratch and making sure that you look after yourself properly.

It's stuff you might think you know already but sometimes a fresh perspective can be a real eyeopener.

So why not sign up and join me. We start tomorrow.

The challenge videos are totally free and can be viewed for 7 days.

There is an optional upgrade costing £7.00 which gives you unlimited access to the videos, plus worksheets to go with each video that you can tailor to your own business and, as a bonus, I'll give you access to my "the art of selling at craft fairs" masterclass (which is usually priced at £37)

To join the free version click here: https://payhip.com/b/WFLUT

I look forward to seeing you in the challenge.

You are not going to want to miss this!

It starts next Wednesday and, over 3 days, I'll take you through everything you need to get in place to ensure your Christmas fairs fly instead of fail.

October is the start of the Christmas Craft Fair Season. Are you ready?

The money you make from your Christmas fairs can, quite easily, pay all your pitch fees for the following year with money left over.

There's a saying that the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the second best time is now.

In the same way, the best time to start planning Christmas fairs is January but the second best time is now.

Your fairs are probably already booked. If not you've definitely left it too late.

There are several ways that you can ensure that your Christmas fairs go well and I can help you with this.

Wouldn't you just love to sell out of your products and make tonnes of money from your fairs this year?

Watch this space!

Lots of love

Hey everyone, how was your summer?

I'm so sorry I haven't been very vocal on this page but I've been working so much making soap that I've barely had time for anything craft related.

I did the summer fair at Green Island Gardens which was great on the Saturday and awful on Sunday. There were a few organisational problems there, plus customers of mine who couldn't actually find the venue because it's not really signposted well so that didn't help!

I'll be running the event details through my profitable craft fair spreadsheet to see if it's financially worth doing again.

Anyway, how are you all doing?

Have you done any great events? Do let me know, and show me your craft table if you have any photos!

Lots of love
Sue ###
