    Are you an artist interested in selling your crafts(手工艺品)through arts and crafts shows in your area? Are you wondering whether you should get a booth(摊位)at the next big event in your city or if you should start at a small show?

    If you are wondering whether big arts and crafts shows mean you will make more money,you may be in for a big surprise．Generally speaking，a big show does not mean you're going to make a lot of money．In fact，many artists are left with an empty pocket after big arts and crafts events，so you want to consider a few important things before making a decision．

    First of all，consider the subject of the event and whether the product you are selling matches this subject．For example，if you sell modern superhero T-shirts，you're probably not going to do very well at a renaissance(文艺复兴)festival．Your product should match the festival's topic．

    Secondly，ask the festival's organizers how many people are expected to show up．Are your products fit for this market?Will these people be interested in buying your products?These are questions that are important to answer before entering the big show．

    Then always keep in mind that one of the most important things that you can get from a big arts and crafts show is a fan base．Turn each visitor into a fan．Ask them to follow you on your social media accounts like facebook account, so you can continue to sell to them in the future, well after the event ends．

    A lot of artists do not realize they have this valuable and useful condition in their hands．They only focus on selling more products，without seeing that these people could buy more from them in the future if their contact information is collected．After all, sales are about making friends．
