Why would people tell you to stop being MORE transparent? It will be so cool & inspirational to see your growth documented as inspiration for others later. You being vulnerable enough to share what you make is super cool & gives so much insight!

[@brennamandco]

Awww thank you Lexes!!! I appreciate this comment more than you know!

[@b.knotty]

P.S. I love when creators include prices for EVERYTHING. I’ve wanted to do a craft fair for years..I’m all over the place with my crafts. I like to see what everyone is making, the kind of fair, the set ups, what is or isn’t selling, who else is there, is it worth it. Shiiiiii I wanta know ALL the deets along with your thoughts/feelings about the day/experience. Sooo… thank you for sharing 💛

[@brennamandco]

of course! I always try to be as transparent as I can! There's more market vlogs coming too!

[@AtHomeWithErica]

Love the transparency...you don't see that a lot with small businesses that share videos😊

[@MsAnnaNicole]

I love that you say how much you make, it's inspirational and motivating!

[@Teesbymanny]

Working with you (having you on the background while I do my small business stuff) is literally so relaxing. I am so happy to have found you!

[@Becky20043]

I'm glad you at least made your booth money back! I had my first craft show last Saturday and just signed up for another in December. It's really good to see how they can go and know that it can be hit or miss. Keep up the AWESOME videos!

[@brennamandco]

Thank you so much!!

[@LuckyBreath]

Omg your from Fargo! I go there for shopping because I'm 3 hours away in the middle of nowhere. Idk why but it makes me so excited knowing your from around my area and your an inspiration ✨️ love your channel 💗

[@makingnewdreamscometrue]

I enjoy watching your vlogs. Be careful with lifting things. You don’t want to get a hernia. Save up an get a lift installed in your father’s truck. Believe me, you’ll love it because you’ll be able to load and unload anything easily. Happy you made your booth money back. Good idea on cheap signage.

[@adriennmichaels5878]

Last year i started to do markets (UK), some were good some not, my thinking is that because they are local i bring Brand awareness, if is a slow day and i made just my booth, food and pertrol money back i`m beeing positive and say another 20 people saw my product and they are aware of my brand and products, i try to do montly markets so people get used to that i will be there next month, some might not be able to spend that month, but will buy the following. Always look at the organizer, if they are focusing on bringing customers, they advertise and so on, they are the good markets. Organisers who are focused on the seller, usually are not advertising too much and they don`t focus on the customer (from my personal experience), those are not good, they are making their money, but they don`t care that their sellers are not making money, unfortunatlly this is my experience. Thank you for the video is so nice to see someone who is transparent, and it`s so facinating to see other markets in different countries :)

[@yessicarmomlife]

Thank you for sharing !!! You are inspirational and no matter what happens you always keep going and that’s awesome!

[@TheFlipSideStudio_]

I love your transparency. Keep doing what your going and don’t get discouraged I can tell you put a lot of work into your brand.

[@b.knotty]

Bahaha I was literally watching your recent fair vlog.. talk about right on tiiiiiiime 💛

[@krisquick6292]

I love your vlogs and love that you share what you make good or bad!

[@brennamandco]

Thanks Kris!!! Means a lot

[@pisceslicious]

I love the fact that you share with us what you make because it inspires people and informs us if we wanted to do markets too, there's so many makers or shall I say small businesses, that keep things to themselves and don't want to share to help others and it makes people distrust you, but your transparency is amazing thank you for sharing and informing us, it shows how caring and inspiring you are 🔥❤️🔥

[@brennamandco]

Of course! I will always be transparent!

[@saskia16672]

Please keep these- there awsome🎉🎉

[@HandmadebyDiana]

loved coming to the Fair with you Brenna thanks for sharing again. Its always interesting to see how the Sales go. i dont mind that you share how much you make, thats totally up to you. Oh and i was so nervous with the stand in your dads truck. I noticed you didnt tie it down so i was watching it through the back window the whole time you talked ! LOL 😄 Diana xx

[@brennamandco]

hahah i love this. Yeah I forgot to tie it down but it made it!!!

[@HandmadebyDiana]

@@brennamandco It sure did, and you did an amazing job setting up all by yourself!! xx

[@christinamgo6143]

One thing you might try next time is renting only one booth and packing it full with your items! It will cut the booth fee cost and maybe you can profit more. You can still bring just as much merch just pack it in! I’ve also noticed a slowdown in markets this year vs last year so it could be a trend. Either way, you’re killing it. ❤

[@brennamandco]

Aww thank you so much! I thought about that but personally, I hate clutter and I think that if I had everything in one space it would be too clutter!

[@meganspieces]

im taking notes on your packing stills

[@brennamandco]

hahahah i love this

[@meganspieces]

omg must i be so cringe? ;) oh well, so good to see you! your upcoming items are so stinking cute!

[@brennamandco]

haha don't even Meg! And thanks love

[@madrabarr]

what kind of credit card system do you use??

[@Sew_What]

Could you please do a video on how to grow on instagram? Please and thank you :)

[@brennamandco]

I'm not sure what I could say! I just always keep posting and reels really helped me!

[@araseleprieto1459]

Just noticed you have the card reader for Shopify so how did you obtain it? Interested :)

[@brennamandco]

just google POS shopify and it will bring you to buy one!

[@octomeal5770]

Thank you for sharing ♥ May I ask how to deal with customer support as small business owner? Including inquiring about the progress of the shipping, returning the package, and all kinds of questions. There are always have customer who is rude or unreasonable. I believe this is a very stressful and emotionally challenging job. Do you reply all the email or message by yourself? Thank you again!

[@brennamandco]

Yes! I do everything in my business! It's hard but I try my best!

[@madebyriphi]

I love your films but I can't follow a lot because of the music witch is sometimes very loud

[@brittanyleeboutique2149]

Do you mind me asking where you got the blanks for the sweat suit?? I haven’t found anywhere that has cute colors, just the basic neutrals 😩

[@brennamandco]

I got them custom made by a manufacturer!

[@brittanyleeboutique2149]

The color is beautiful!!

[@salabova]

Hi, I have a question. How do you decide if you going to sign up for the craft fair or not ( one that you have never done before)? Thank you, Lenka

[@brennamandco]

Typically, I look at how many people have liked or said that they are interested in the event. I also look at how long this event has been going on and most of the time I have gone as a customers to these shows and decide I'd like to do them the following year!

[@salabova]

Thank you! I recently found you here on KZbin and I absolutely love your content. I moved and recently doing my research on the local craft shows so I can start again. I haven’t done one in years so I’m a little nervous and hesitant. Thank you for your transparency! Good luck!

[@jelizabethm7384]

I think just with everything in the world happening, markets haven’t been the same. I done same events from last year and it has been so different , less crowds and people staying home.
