We run a Vendor Show every year, actually ours is Friday. We charge the Vendors $25 for one table and $35 for two, which includes the table and 2 chairs, and the donation of a door prize with the retail value over $5.00. We first asked the schools families if they were interested and then I went to local vendor shows and recruited others. We charge $1.00 admission and only have drinks as the refreshments. We tried food and it didn't sell.
Has anyone here done a shoppers Night? This would be an evening where you bring in a slew of vendors (Avon, Mary Kay, Party Lite, etc...)
If so how do you run it? Do you charge admission? What do you call it? Any suggestions, ideas, etc...?
