Last year me and Hollie had a table at thought bubble. It was a steep learning curve of an experience and although we probably looked a bit out of place in the main hall next to experienced professionals with our kids party table cloth. But we had a lot of fun and we were friendly and we chatted to lots of people. This year when we applied we didn't get a table which we've been pretending didn't bother us but it completely did, which is fine now because we got an email from them the other day saying there's been some cancelations and we can have a table if we want it.
So obviously pretty excited but it's now only a month away and all we can think about is that if we'd known over summer I would have done so much work. To combat it I decided to just do one new comic and then just do a product range around it. I still have other comics left over from last year, I think I'll just package them better and I'm sorted.
Things to do better from last year:
1. Have a business card ready
2. Have bags for people to use
3. Have a nice table cloth
4. Have a print stand
5. Chat to passersby more
6. If i do the characatures again make it so i just take a picture and their email and I send them it.
7. Neater more professional price tags
8. Clear signs saying who we are
9. Make clear who's work is who's to avoid confusion
10. Sort out a float before hand and not that morning
11. Have free sweets to give out
12. Brings lots of drinks and snacks
and finally
13. Look cool , but we hardly need to improve on that
