BABE?

Just checking to see if it would be worth it for us to do this show. We normally don't do any shows this close to home, but I have had a few customers request that we do it.

In order for it to be worth it, we would need to bring a large amount of product which means paying for a larger space. I believe I can get that space, and would like to let her know asap.

So, if you sell at this show, is it a decent one? If you attend this show, would you like to see us there? Do you think it worth the effort to pay for and set-up a show that is just a little over an hour down the road?

Thanks for your time! Beki

YES. I never see enough seed beads at BABE. It drives me crazy.

The other local bead stores seem to think so....they're ALWAYS there. Baubles & Beads never misses it, and they're only 5 minutes away. (AND open the days of the show.) It's terrific publicity if people don't realize your store is there.

Also, people come from out of town for BABE. Unfortunately I won't be able to go this year. But usually I get to the Bay Area at least once a year, and would be happy to find a vendor I could go to when the show isn't on.

Yeah. Not too big, but way big enough for wallowing gluttony. Like Goldilocks said -- JUST RIGHT. Lots of lampworkers, lots of almost everything -- not enough seed beads. The only hole in the show, IMO. ~~ Sooz To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong. ~~Joseph Chilton Pearce

Pun intended, Soozala?

And Beki, even though I won't be at the show, as one of the "big girls," I think you really _need_ to be there. If only to maintain your status as an "Alpha Bead B*tch", for want of a better term.

Even if your shop were across the street, I'd recommend that you be at BABE. It's important that you have a strong presence at all the biggest shows, simply because you are so well known.

Just my two cents,

Beki -- if you need help, let me know. I will be in town for BABE.
