Any
tips on vending glow sticks?
-
Team: depending on expected attendance,
you may need to hire people to sell for you at large
events. All team members need to be enthusiastic about
selling! Your excitement will attract more customers.
-
Money: make sure all your team
members bring sufficient change and put money in a safe
place.
-
Dress: darker color clothes
are better for demonstrating glow products to attract
crowds.
-
Location: pick a high traffic
and darker spot so your glow products will attract more
attention.
-
Products: do not take too many
different styles of products as it will slow down your
customers' decision-making process. Make it easy for them
to decide. This will also enable you to have time to help
more customers.
What
would be the steps to get started?
-
Find out from local newspaper and
internet about upcoming summer fairs, carnivals, county
fairs and community events. The State Travel & Tourism
Offices would also be resourceful about upcoming
events.
-
Get permission from event coordinator
for selling glow products. They should be familiar with
glow products from previous events.
-
Do some homework about the events:
How many people will be there? Are there families with
kids? Is this a wealthy neighborhood that you can sell
some big ticket items? How long is the time window that
you can sell your products?
-
Choose glow products to vend. Glow
necklaces are the most popular at summer fairs. Also
popular are glow sticks, glow bracelets, glow bunny ears,
glow rings, glow earrings and LED flashing jewelries.
