RVE 217: RVing to Craft Shows Selling Homemade Dips - a podcast by Heath Padgett

from 2021-02-16T22:08:49

We often see questions in our Facebook group on how to RV to craft shows. What do you sell? How do you find shows? Are shows even happening right now?


Shanna Wyatt of Chadwicks Naturals answers all these questions and more as she shares how she built a homemade dip business that supports her family. 


In this episode, Shanna shares:



  • What happens if she runs out of dips on the road

  • Her average costs and earnings

  • How she chooses which festivals and shows to attend (and it's WAY more complicated than you'd think!)

  • How to stand out with customers

  • What Shanna says to every customer who approaches her booth

  • Why you can still kill it at small shows

  • How Shanna and craft shows have adapted to COVID rules

  • Other food-related products you can sell at craft shows

  • The BIGGEST mistake you can make at a craft show


One resource you'll want to check out if you're looking to dip into the craft circuit (sorry, had to) is Festivalnet. This is paid service (but only $50 a year) for finding festivals. You can also check out Shanna's Facebook group, Crafter Talk.


Thanks to this week's unofficial sponsor: Personal Euphoria.
