      I like choosing events that I've been to before as an actual customer and saw first hand how successful it can be! I also like picking events that some of my other vendor friends will also be at who have similar ideal customers as I do. At the end of the day, it's important to just do a BUNCH of markets when you're first starting out just to get some experience.

      I often run into markets in person as a customer as I explore new neighborhoods and cities - but recently I've also been finding a bunch through social media. After following a lot of my vendor friends from previous markets, I see the markets that they announce they will be at, then I apply to those myself:) I but there are a TON in philly, plus I know some happen in Princeton if you're closer to that area!

    Love watching your videos. I'm in Dallas and did summer markets last year. Two in June and July, three in August. The hottes one got to 102 during the market. I love markets but the summer ones I don't like how drained I feel just one hour in, no matter how much I prep with water and food. Only reason I didn't do any this year was because sales weren't that great during the summer last year. Markets usually start around 9a - 11am here but get pushed to evenings starting at 5pm during summer. I have an 8 hour indoor market July 20th, so we will see. It has also been a lot more humid this year. Can't wait to hear how it goes for you! Hope it doesn't get too warm and that you have a great time.

Here in Florida has been a little more dificult to embrace a small business. Everything like rent, home insurance has increased tremendously. So, I feel people are just minimizing there shopping during none holiday season. Any other suggestions? I do alot of Pop ups or Farmers Market. Still, clients wouldn't buy online. Just at Markets. Thank you again, love your channel.
