One of the biggest logistical challenges I have is taking EVERYTHING I have and displaying it without people (and myself) getting overwhelmed from the choices.
I find that most of the people want to shop a little more quietly and leisurely than ordering everything at once at the show with their puggies pulling them in 3 different directions.
It is also hard for me to pack and or ship all of the big or heavier items these days so I decided to make these cool rack cards on VistaPrint. They are larger than a postcard at 4" x 8" and even have information on the back for no extra charge. I make all of my postcards, business cards, notepads and raffle cards on VistaPrint. Their quality, service and prices are just amazing!
Here is what I created... (click on the pictures to make them bigger.)
They're are a great idea! Your right..... they're so much better than having to lug everything to a show!
ReplyDeleteVery ingenious my friend! :)
ReplyDeleteThose look really neat! I'm sure you'll need plenty of them ;)

Great idea, Melissy...especially with Emmitt's picture on it. Who could resist!?
ReplyDeleteI think that was a great idea, Melissa! Sometimes simplifying things like that is really helpful! I can't WAIT to hear about how much fun you have at these shows. I sure wish one was closer to Pearl and I!
ReplyDeleteThis is very cool.

That's a perfect idea. It's so hard to carry items around if you purchase them on the spot. You'll get a lot of after the fact sales with these.
ReplyDeleteLove it! And I love Vista Print too. They have great deals.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this post today I'm thinking Pearl & Daisy are going to be getting a new bed this year...

Great idea! You should come to a show closer to us!
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteWonderful idea and a perfect way to showcase your art. Having something that a potential customer can walk away with is very marketing savy! Hope all goes well with your upcoming shows. =)
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea - I hope all your shows go great. I wish I could come to them all! When are they ever gonna finish that teleportation machine, anyways??
ReplyDeleteGreat idea - wish you were coming to the KC area. Good luck with your shows.
ReplyDeleteWoos, the OP Pack
Furry nice way to spread the word about your grrrrreat stuff!

Rachel is right - where IS that teleportation machine! These cards are great, Melissa - Vistaprint is such a good shop, I use them for all my card printing now, they have great sale...Wish I could join you in San Diego - maybe you will get to see Mindy and the fatties!
