onna talk about versatility and long term storage most of us, you know, I don't know some of some of you guys probably have huge garage is but I don't and even if you do, who wants to waste their space doing, you know, storing their craft stuff this particular item that we're going to talk about is really easily branded so as your business changes your products change I've heard a lot from people that you know you make several different types of things you are changing this up so this item will grow and move as you grow and move it's very awesome on dh multiple configurations for various booth sizes so depending on if you have a small booth or a large with you're not like trapped in by your booth size ah next thing we really wanted work is very important as weight and size so when we're thinking about that packing in that long term storage but also when we're thinking about having to carry our stuff upstairs I've definitely done a show where the elevator's been broke you know, I've definitely done a show where it's rained the night before and the ground is uneven and I'm going across mud and you want o you know, think about that storage footprint and then we're gonna talk about customer comfort so really this is all about your customers rate so you want to make sure that when they're in your booth they're at ease their comfortable there not you want them to stay there as long as possible you know as long as it takes them two by two by what they need to buy on and they need to be able to you know, easily access your products and then we're going to talk about height and storage.

It was an awesome experience. I learned so much from Nicole. She is entertaining and so knowledgeable that I feel I left the show with soooooo much info. I loved being in the studio audience, I met so many great people, crafters and new friends I feel we all became one big support for each other. I am putting to good use everything I learned. I look forward to coming back to Creative Live for another learning experience. Craft Show Secrets taught me all the ins/outs of craft shows ...I'm excited for my next craft show. Time to Create!!!

I've been growing my business successfully online for the last six years, but hadn't shown my work in person for a decade. As a refresher, I took Nicole's craft show class to be sure that I made the most of the time I would have in front of my customers. Because of the preparedness and mindset that I gained from Nicole's teaching, my show was a huge success. My interactions with the customers, producers, and other vendors were genuine and joyful, building a stronger foundation for future business and relationships. This course took the worry and stress off my shoulders so I could enjoy the opportunity that I had. Thanks, Nicole! Tamara Kraft Pithitude
