Craft Markets
Impress your visitors and use your facilities for real benefits...

Getting a little more profit from your guests is a "No-brainer" isn't it? Selling a few gifts here and there won't exactly make you a millionaire but it will certainly add a few extra percentage points to your annual margin.

But... what do your customers want? The same range of goods they can get anywhere or things that are really unique to your area. And, who are your friends and who'll help you? The multi-national companies? No! Your local groups? Yes!
So, why not explore your local area a bit and see what's on offer? Try the Farmers' Market and the Craft Market to see what local people make and what you like. You'll be surprised at the range of goods available and the quality offered. Chat to the ones you like, maybe they'll be prepared to offer you a "Sale-or-return" deal, maybe they'll be prepared, too, to put your card on their stand so that people browsing can find out about you, too.
