I love this I want to start a small teen business and this helped I am starting a bracelet,clothes,and candle stand this summer around my neighborhood ❤

[@estabanb55]

I hate the trash talk but I tried out a small business of my own and some places or coordinators charge you $45 or more to set up a booth and end up not selling nothing, who's making the real money? And some places only let you set up for 4 hours, I rather be a coordinator rent a small land and get $45 or more per each tent , get 20 vendors and make bank

[@seemabmakes]

Great idea

[@jenna0616]

Ah, what I’d give to only pay $45 for my booth. It’s ridiculous, I’ve only found markets that charge a minimum of $130! So ridiculous, but yes, I agree.

[@autumnmarilyn5216]

Once I went to a fair that was $50 for a table, only to be told that they wouldn’t be advertising it. What am I paying you for??

[@Ph.Tran88]

This is the best market video! Thank you

[@rebekahgrace-]

i am in love with these videos !! they are so helpful to me, as my first pop-up is coming soon !

[@vanesssaguevarahypno743]

thank you for these amazing tips, I appreciate it.

[@ottebzavisi]

Your videos can help a lot and you have such a positive vibe 🤗

[@luvnotvideos]

I appreciate the information. As a new vendor I'm still struggling to create an interesting tent space. Good info here! I really like the fact you customize some of your inventory specifically for the event. Very clever! Thank you for sharing.

[@winterwolf9254]

I love this series! So excited whenever you upload a new video Monica! ☺

[@audreyscakes]

Thank you for this video this really helped. My first pop up is at a brewery that is family & Dog (fur baby) oriented. They will be having live music and its Luau themed. I'm super excited but so nervous because my products are all things sweet. From cake to scones, so figuring out what to bring in this heat on top of all the details, i find myself saying "why am i doing this" lol . Watching your video has given me a bit more confidence. thanks again.

[@janetfvlogs6375]

Hello Monica, I’m so glad I found your series! I will be having my first pop up event this month. All your tips are very helpful. Can you please tell me where you got your banner? I need one. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@DaraKFulton]

Thank you so so much for this video Monica! New to your channel and I'm also an entrepreneur. I want to do a pop up shop in the near future and your advice is very helpful. This will be my first pop up shop so this is exciting and helpful ! Much success on your business !! 🥰🥰

[@monicarazak]

So excited for you! Hope it went well:)

[@Stephaniegofman]

I was lucky enough to get invited by a small business in downtown to be a pop-up shop for first friday so most the money I need to earn is for supplies

[@danielledukes1925]

thank you! I just started doing my first pop up shops this month & have learned so much from your vlogs ❤

[@stacieharris]

Congratulations 😄🎉

[@jamiellamoses8253]

Hi Monica. Thank you for all your valuable tips and advice which i appreciate and have implemented. im preparing for my first pop up events, so your videos are a definite asset❤

[@monicarazak]

So happy to help in a small way🤗

[@victorious_king3]

I like this video. It's knowledge able and well put together. I like the earrings and scrunchies. Especially since everything is hand made. I just like pop up videos. Thank you for making this for people. -Trae

[@monicarazak]

Thanks so much for the kind words:)

[@hannahhutchinson4282]

Hi Monica! I absolutely love your videos and business. I am attending my first pop-up shop soon and have to have liability insurance in order to set up a tent. Do you just have a basic liability insurance for your business? I would love to bring a tent but am not sure how to go about the insurance. Thank you!!

[@EleveHandmade]

Hey! Your videos are so so helpful thank you!! Where on earth did you get those pastel bins that you put your candles in? Thanks!

[@monicarazak]

hey thank you! I got them from hay.com :)

[@MyBohoChicStyle]

Hi Monica!! I also do popup shops and I love watching your videos!! I get so much inspiration and good information from them!!! I just have one question for you. How did you learn to make your own candles? Thanks so much for filming so much of your before, during and after pop ups!! It’s lots of fun to see someone else’s process!! Tina 🩷💜🩵💚💛💙♥️🧡

[@monicarazak]

this is so kind! I learn how to make candles by watching youtube tutorials! and looking up blog posts about any specific questions I had.

[@loralinengel3162]

do you have a video on capturing emails at pop ups? thank you

[@user-lk5bm2fh4g]

good lecture you dear

[@marketingempiregroup]

That’s what im talking about. 💯 We should connect

[@m90ss]

🔥🔥

[@nerdmommy7114]

I am loving your videos! Just curious, are you by chance Filipino?

[@monicarazak]

thanks! I'm half:)

[@texasmarshalls]

Can you give a idea of how much it cost to attend these events on average? Trying to see if i can afford to do this. Thank you for your videos!

[@monicarazak]

It varies! Local events that are for a special cause are usually free, smaller markets range from $50-$100, and bigger markets go from $100-$300. And I've seen big weekend events that are more than that! I tend to stick to the markets that are around $100 or less because I feel like those are the ones that are worth it.

[@DhaniahColey]

Hello Monica, I have a question... how do you find pop=up shops? I've been on google searching but i'm uncertain and stuck

[@ilina3896]

I use facebook groups usally you can find groups in your area❤❤

[@Charlie-es6gh]

I have applied for a Pride event for June, I dont know if I’ll be accepted but I have been working on inventory

[@monicarazak]

best of luck!!

[@SewGigi]

How do you get paid? Meaning, do you have Venmo, cash only, or directly paid to banking account

[@monicarazak]

Hey! I use Shopify payments with direct deposit:)

[@SewGigi]

Thank you sew much

[@lindalovehearts]

I was hoping youd share if the prices are worth it or not.... like if a vendor charges $200 etc.

[@monicarazak]

I personally have never done a market where the fee was over $120. If they try to charge you anywhere over $100 I would definitely try to do some research on the market and make sure you will definitely get your money's worth. Talk to other vendors who have done the market in the past , or even as the market organizers for some attendee estimates.

[@champvrworld]

hello madam this canopy is sold out and where can we get it i live in india

[@monicarazak]

I like this one from Amazon! amzn.to/3XOd0LM

[@SewGigi]

Is it necessary to get a license to sell handmade purses?

[@monicarazak]

I don't think you need a license! But it's always a good idea to register your business with the state you live in.

[@DarkNekoCrochet]

I’m dealing with my feelings on being modest. I know I need to be less modest. I can brag all day about other people but myself or things I do 🙃🤐

[@yangelthomas]

Do you need a license to sell at a pop-up shop

[@cyndlehick9777]

Yea I’d imagine a sales tax licensee. Do your own research tho.
