This is great, especially coming from an Australian perspective! Much appreciated as someone who is interested in going down the creator and market path.

Looking forward to the next video! I feel like most pricing videos focus on small, mass made items, but I am struggling with pricing very details items that take a lot of time. I want crochet to continue to be a relaxing, enjoyable thing for me, and timing myself always ruins that for me. I also want to make what I want to make, rather than what I think might sell, as I already have a full time job and don't rely on crochet as an income, but this leaves me with a lot of one-off items that are hard to price... Would be cool to hear your thoughts around some of this in the video :)

The Square App has tap to pay now! It sometimes doesn't like metal cards (some of the fancier credit cards), but you can manually enter it if the customer is okay with it.

Here in the USA that size goes for $45. I dunno what that is in your world. They only want to buy the $8.00 baby octo or $10. Loaf cats. I’ll be lucky if I see 50 people tomorrow. I really want to go to Canton Texas where I used to live. They have a quarter million people every month. It’s the largest market in the world but that intimidates me lol

I saw someone saying if you buy two, you get a free baby octo and then people get pulled in to the purchase to get something for free

Be careful when playing music at a market in Australia. Especially if you don’t have an apra/amcos license to play music publicly.

“Zac-tion!” Loved that one!!! I thought the tip to practice loading the car beforehand is an excellent piece of advice! Could easily be overlooked until last minute. I feel like as a pattern DESIGNER and creator of the items, y’all should be promoting that aspect, too! Those who know will appreciate that, imo. Do you suggest hand sanitizer(s) & maybe a little “feel free to play with our items with your cleaned hands” (or similar ) sign? Great video; looking forward to the series! PS…not bad having a BF with the retail know-how, eh? 😉🫶🏻🧶
