    Hi! Im a young crocheter and I love your videos! I’m going to a market soon and am wondering how to deal with people who want to negotiate prices of my pieces?

    • @Refinedvibes
      @Refinedvibes  Před měsícem +31

      Oh this is a good one. You’ll just have to be honest and say your prices are nonnegotiable. The price is firm. We had a women try to tell Oscar she only had 15 and he looked at her and said “well it’s 20” i would rather take the loss of a sale then lower my self worth for someone who clearly doesn’t respect our kind of work

      Heyyy I had a similar experience and for me if they buy more than 10 small $5 i will take some money off just bc its bulk but if your coming to me asking to negotiate a$10 item it’s not happening and that doesn’t make you mean or rude but at the end of the day people WILL PAY FOR WHAT THEY WANT don’t get discouraged ❤

    Wow, what a wealth of information! Thank you so much! I am in my sixties/retired but have started crocheting plushies. I have wanted to try a market but have hesitated mainly because of the technology part. I would love you to do a video on square!! Being from an older Era I struggle with technology and at this point it is my downfall. Your video is excellent and it is very gracious of you to share what you have learned!! I have no doubt your business will continue to climb to new heights!

    Thank you for showing such a real and transparent side of your business. Your videos made me believe I could start my own small business and attend markets, so I finally did. Now, you've inspired me to start a youtube channel to go with my business. You're such an inspiration to so many people and all us crocheters and crafters thank you so much for your kindness, transparency, and all that you do for the community!

    Oh my gosh!! Why couldn’t I find this channel sooner?! I had my first event last Saturday (one week after you posted this. I paid $250 and literally had anxiety preparing. I worked so hard to get everything for the space that I didn’t make enough inventory and it was a two day event. This video is amazing! I make floral arrangements and wreaths but still learned alot. Thank you!

You really inspired me to begin my crochet business a year ago and I've been doing markets since July 2023 with all of your advice~ 🤩 I also am happy to say I vend with Makers Hive Market in SoCal and they are such an awesome organizer to work with & didn't even realize you also vend with them in your area! Anyways, all the best wishes for you and thank you for another informative video 💛

    I'm so happy you made this video. I have only been doing free community vendor/yard sale events, but I want to get into real markets. I have been so nervous about what all I need, and this helped a lot. I would love to see a square "tutorial" type video. I signed up for it but I feel overwhelmed with putting my inventory in and learning how everything works.

    Hi
    Great information.
    I’m just getting into crocheting. Actually I’ve known how to do basic single crochet for decades. I watched a few videos on crocheting and decided to expand my horizons.
    For the last 7 years I’ve been making fused glass ornaments, dishes, and jewelry. I plan to continue with that but I want to add to it with crocheting. Probably a little adhd going on.
    A method I go by as to how much inventory to take, is aim for 10 x booth fee in sales. And double that for your inventory.
    It allows people to have choices.

    i recently did my first market, and i noticed when signing up for other and bigger markets that i need to obtain licensing and permits for my plushies. a lot of city workers go to markets in my area to check for permits with vendors. i was wondering since you have licensing in your business if you could give me steps or maybe do an in depth video of how you accomplished that? i know a video is a lot to ask for, so just steps would be fine : )

    Hi, I do have a question, if can be answered safely. Im about to do my first booth in a semi popular market for our area. What would you be comfortable having for cash to do for change? My aim is having all items multiples of 5, so I shouldn't have to carry ones, but I wasn't sure how many 5s and 10s would be reasonable

    I'm trying to decide on charging sales tax (or if I should just eat the cost) -- it seems like a lot of vendors I've purchased from have not charged sales tax, and I think that makes it easier as I price my items all in $5 intervals so it's easier and don't need to deal with change. If you charge sales tax when someone purchases, how do you go about that?

    • @Refinedvibes

      Most of my charges are on card and Venmo and my apps charge the sales tax for me :) I charge for tax purposes and eating the cost for handmade items does add up!
