1 of 31 Days to preparing for a craft show

One of my goals this year is to attend my first event as a vendor. Being my first go at doing something like this, I most certainly realize I'm going to have to put quite a bit of thought and hard work into this event. So, I've looked over the internet for a comprehensive list of things to consider in order to make this opportunity the best it can be for my first time. I found Sara Duggan at crochetbusiness.com discusses mollyeleen.wordpress.com 's list of 31 Days of craft show preparation.

Day 1 - Prepare for unexpected things

To me this means:

Duct Tape

Extra cash flow for making change

A portable charger for my phone

Extra business cards

Water on hand to prevent dehydration & fan to cool me off a bit

An extra person with me to help w/ sales and when I need to use the potty 

Extra inventory in case something sells out
Find out what to do if it rains because this is an outdoor event.
