You can always think of so much of stuff to make people buy more of your goods. Sometimes, ideas just crop into your head, and oftentimes they do not. That is why you turn to the internet for information on these. I mean, seriously, there are a whole lot of gimmicks you can do to draw in the customer. It's as easy as one two three.
Gimmick number 1, the use of gifts after every purchase. This is an especially good tactic for those who have items that sell well over a thousand dollars. A painting for example, would do well with a complementary wooden frame for it. Or, what about metal works and sculptures? A buy one - take one deal would sound nice. Just be wary about giving away too much free stuff at once. Giving away items (especially the ones that you are selling) would downgrade the value of your product in the customer's eyes (especially the buy-one take-one deal). This doesn't apply to food products of course. Customers will always welcome a double your buy deal anytime when it comes to perishables.
Gimmick two, establish relationships with other craftsmen and artisans in the fair. Most of the time, two artisans would find their works quite complementary with each other and would like to learn from one another. This would mean a lot for both of you because a) you would be sharing tricks of the trade; b) you will be able to compare and rate your product against potential competitors in the same business field and c) an ally would always be more beneficial than an enemy.
Having a competitor ups the standards of your product (without you knowing it). You get to see ideas you wouldn't possibly have thought of in your own time. Try and be civil with them. Relate if you can. Give your contact number and do a little chatting outside the trade grounds. Sooner or later, competition can turn into partnership. And partnerships, when both parties do their best, are good things to have in this competitive world. - 24585
