First Market Vlog of the Season! | Small Business | Craft Fair Setup | Momprenuer
Here it is y'all! The first official market vlog of the 2024 vendor market season! I have been looking forward to this event and it did not disappoint.

    Desiree, I really enjoy your videos and can relate to communicating with others. Surprisingly I worked as a retail manager for 30 years and loved interacting with customers. As for communicating for something more personal that is a different thing all together. Just remember you are not the only one going through it. Everyone meeting you feels the same way. The next time everyone will have a familiar face and you won't be the new face in the crowd. As far as marketing, your videos speak volumes. Continue to be real and yourself, but remember you are nit only marketing your product but yourself and your business as well. Focus on the positives, the product and stay on task. I would love to see more of your products and how to videos. I went to your website and fist impression I thought it looked great. The color, vibe was very inviting, but once I went to look at your product I was a little disappointed. The pictures make it really hard to see the actual product and design. If you didn't list what it said in the title of the item I wouldn't know what the items said. Zoom in on your designs. Less background. Also add more variety of product or offer items that can be grouped together better. My sisters and I are on this small business adventure as well. We have done craft shows years ago but life got into the way. Last year we started back but quickly realized how drastically different product offerings are today vs the 90s. Thei year we took what we learned and failed in last year, and changed it up. We are working on product for our first shows of the upcoming season. Hopefully we are on a better track this year. I wish you much luck in your small business. Thank you again for allowing us along your journey.

      @TheHandmadeMom 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! 💖 I too was a manager in retail for a few years and can totally relate to communicating with customers there versus talking and communicating with others about more personal things. Since this video I have gone to a few more networking events and it definitely was easier and more comfortable each time I have gone. I really appreciate your reminder to stay true to who I am and what I do. Sharing this journey with all the ups and downs with everyone here has been so amazing. It has allowed me to connect with so many businesses in so many different ways I never thought it would.💖 My website has definitely taken me some time to get it to where it is now and I am really proud of it but I do struggle with the product section (how ironic is that lol). I will keep your points in mind as I work on trying to improve that part of the website. I am wishing you and your sister an amazing market season!🥰 That is what we do in this small business thing! We try things, learn and grow from it and adapt for the future. Y'all got this! 🎉 Thank you again for coming along this journey with me and taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment. 💖

      Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! 💖 I totally feel that! I have had similar experiences with kiddos in my booth wanting to touch the glass items (luckily nothing has ever happened from that). I will definitely observe what happens at future markets and share how that goes. Because mine is free spin and contains no actual product I don't think it would be so bad if a kid comes up and wants to spin it but if there was product in it or it actually cost something to spin I could 100% see the struggle with that. My next market is at a kid centered event so we will see how that plays out 🙈 lol

(It was a rather small space) But maybe I can tie an adjustable knot similar to what you see on a bracelet? 🤨 Hmmm. I'll have to give this a try and update you in a future video!

      Hi! Thank you! I am really excited to use the HTVRONT for all my upcoming market prep. 🎉 I have used a few different brands of glass cans and the brand I am currently using is Hovshelf for the 20oz and CWHHRN for the 16oz. I originally found these brands on Amazon but I have been looking for and trying these brands through other wholesale sources. There are so many brands, styles and variations that trying them through amazon first to find what you like may be something for you to try. I hope this was helpful. 😊

      @TheHandmadeMom I ordered the 20 oz to try them, and I'm going to order uv transfers for the first time as well. Thanks so much for the information 😊.

    If you still have both the original sign file and the letters made a cardboard template for placement to fill the space. Make the 14in circle in XCS, line up your text as it should be laid out. Offset the text by .04. Move the original text off to the side. Minus front (I can’t remember what it’s called but is the last one) so it slices the offset out of that 14in round. Duplicate it so you have 2. Take any shape like a rectangle and cover the bottom half (M1 has small bed so need it to fit)and subtract, repeat on that other circle covering the top half with a shape and subtract. Now you have small stencil pieces just for the outer edge of the sign, use painters tape to hold in place and glue the letters down using the guide. I hope that made sense.

    Hi there, I’ve been following you for quite a while now when you had a few hundred subscribers and I don’t comment often on videos but I just really wanted to comment on this one. I wanted to say thank you for posting this and being vulnerable. Thank you for sharing what you’re going through and how you’ve been feeling. It really felt like you were reading my exact thoughts. I’ve been having a rough couple months as well trying to raise young kids and run a business too. It’s not easy and I commend you for actually making time to film, edit and post as well. It’s motivating me and hoping that I can get back to doing the same, but I’m just glad you posted this. Helps me feel less alone. I also wanted to say I am here if you ever need someone to talk to💜

      Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to write a thoughtful and heartfelt comment. I really appreciate it. 💖 It is definitely difficult to run a raise little ones and to run a small business on a regular basis but especially when we are struggling with our mental health. You are not alone. You are doing an amazing job and this difficult time will not last forever. 🫶🏽 We keep going and keep pushing because our "why" is worth it. If no one has told you recently, I am proud of you for continuing to push forward. You are rocking it mama!🥰

    We have had nothing but unsuccessful launches. We have one scheduled for 8/16. We are praying it goes well but if it doesn’t we won’t be surprised. We are also discontinuing a lot of our products that doesn’t move and starting a new one. We are on 4 platforms and business still doesn’t move. We low key just want to close but our mission to help those in need keeps us going. God is in control girl. Pray pray pray he will guide you. Have faith ❤

I’m so happy that you’re seeking the help and support you need during this season. You’ve inspired me to reach out for some support too! But aside from all that just know that we see you! You are doing an amazing job as a momma, wife, friend and business owner! You got this and we’re all behind you cheering you on! Thank you for showing up😘🫶🏽💕

    YOU ARE ENOUGH, YOU ARE AMAZING AND YOU ARE DESERVING OF LOVE, SUPPORT AND GRACE 💕💜💕. Unfortunately too many of us have been or still are where you’re at right now. Mommyhood is so rewarding while at the same time can drain you of YOU. Your business allows you to retain and nurture your creative self, but it comes with its own challenges and stress. Putting them together along with being a wife and you have the perfect storm and ideal conditions for depression and anxiety and a lot of self-doubt and despair. Speaking to a professional was the best thing I did for myself. I learned that having children messes with a BUNCH of hormones and the wiring in your brain and it is not just the baby blues……. It can be a chemical imbalance that sticks around indefinitely. There is no shame in seeking help …. It is truly an act of Love (both for yourself and your family). You will be in my thoughts and prayers that your light will return brighter than ever and you will find balance and JOY in every endeavor. Sending virtual ((((((HUGS)))))….. 🌷sheri

    Thank you for your openness and honesty. I have been in your shoes. I had prenatal anxiety and depression which then turned into severe postpartum depression. It was extremely rough and it affected everything in my life. I didn't think I would be able to handle staying in "life". I didn't feel anything towards my son. That was the hardest part. I have the best support system and I was so confused as to why I couldn't be happy like you are "supposed to be" at this stage in life. I started going to therapy, got bloodwork to see how I could help my hormones balance, started "gardening" for my anxiety. It took a while, but I'm so happy I put myself first. I've never been better. I know it seems impossible and lonely and you want to give up everything and nothing at the same time, but I promise you, you'll work through this. Therapy is going to be amazing for you! Write positive reminders of self love to yourself and post them around your house. It helps reading a positive note and seeing what makes you happy everyday. You are doing a great job. As a mom, a business owner, a wife, a daughter, a woman. You are loved and wanted and deserve great things in life. I send you nothing but love and positivity for your journey ahead 💝

      Thank you so much for sharing this with me. ❤️ I am so glad to hear that you had an amazing support system throughout that time and you are now out of that. Although I am nervous for therapy I am also looking forward to it because I do think will be so helpful for me. I love the idea of writing positive reminders for myself all throughout the house. I currently do that at my computer where I have sticky notes that have some of my favorite positivity quotes or words. 🥰 I really appreciate you taking the time to not only watch this video but leave such a thoughtful comment. Thank you for coming along this journey with me. 💖
