‌📸 Share a pic of your booth set up! ‌📸

[LaurenClev]

Let's share what our booth set up looks like when selling our products. Whether you are at a farmer's market, fair, festival, or trade show -- we want to see your set up! 

I'd love to get some visual inspiration for how others are making things attractive to draw in new foot traffic and customers. Do you have a lot of shelving and display stands? What should we keep in mind with booth design so it is easy to set up and take down? 

Can't wait to see your pics 📸 and get some tips!

Tagging in @SherriG @GeekInStitches @rtfulk and @Doran for some inspirations ✨!

Also @doc_choc, I remember we were talking about attending fairs recently — you might have some tips from your wedding fairs days? 

[GeekInStitches]

Sorry, I only do festivals and craft/handmade events!

[LaurenClev]

Festivals and events count too! 

Do you have a picture of your booth set up that you could share as inspiration, @GeekInStitches ? 

[GeekInStitches]

I use gridwalls for all of my artwork and tables for practical items like zipper bags and fabric coasters.

[LaurenClev]

This looks awesome. If you don't mind me asking, where'd you purchase your grid walls? And do you like them? 

[GeekInStitches]

Thanks 🙂    I've been using them for 5 years.  I have a number of hanging accessories from acrylic sign hanger sizes for pricing and descriptions, peg hooks of various sizes and I use notch hooks to hang artwork.

I bought them from Store Supply Warehouse.  Luckily they have a warehouse 4-5 hours away from me in Georgia.  Orders ship fairly quickly

How long does it take you to get everything set up, @GeekInStitches ?

[GeekInStitches]

My setup varies based on the event.   For half day events, I don't use all my stands.  I sometimes have 2-4 tables.   An hour is usually enough.

For 2 day events, It's a full setup.  That's 8 gridwalls and 3 or 4 tables.  It takes me 2 hours to set that up.

I double hang on both sides of the gridwalls most of the time.

This is awesome, @GeekInStitches! Love to see this vibrancy as your work continues to expand! 🎨 ✨

Tagging in a couple more Super Sellers to help kick start the sharing!

I know that @bonny has shared some pictures of her beautiful setup in the past. Would ya like to share some of them here along with some tips for designing and creating your mobile space?

This is our new setup we designed for our fairs.  You have 30 seconds to 1 minute to catch peoples attention.  When there is booths set up on each side of you, you have to look the best to draw the people in.  The forst photos is how it looks setup.  The last photos is how we roll in our grid walls and the empty shell. 

this booth is a 20x30.  The back 15 ft is gridwall, the front 15 ft.  we had custom made trusses built. I then went in and added 14 gauge wiring so when the trusses are connected they plug into each and no one sees a mess of wiring hanging.  I also wired in the lights.  We run Edison lights across the whole booth to give it a feeling of having a ceiling.  

We also have 6 TVs, 3 that runs a slide show  of the kids wearing our clothes, customers live to see their kids on TV.  The other 3 displays our name and logo.

That is a mighty setup, @rtfulk! Very true about the amount of time you have to catch someone's attention, though. 

[Tom]

Whoa, really neat to see the progression of photos @rtfulk — I take for granted all that goes into planning and setup for fairs and exhibitions. 😮 Thanks for sharing your process and experience with us! 🙌🏻

[bonny]

Mine is a 10'x10' booth at my farmer's market.  Everything fits in my car.

If i can figure put how to post a picture i will get a photo of our up. We are still working out details and getting things lined up as we add new products to our booth as well.

[maxpete]

@whysprs when you're making a reply or post, do you see the camera icon (as shown below?) If you click on that it should work!

[whysprs]

It shows up but doesnt open to find the photo. Instead it wants me to type in the source.

[maxpete]

Very strange! Might just be a bug? But I am tagging our platform manager @AdamB just in case!

[Pesso]

@whysprs I would say post a screenshot of what you're seeing but...... lulz

Looks like you were able to get the picture in! Thanks for sharing!
