If you think about it, bath and body works charges 12$ for a body wash, a huge bar of soap will last you a lot longer than body wash and it's less waste going into a landfill. Also, I've bought a few bars of soap from you and I have to cut them in half because they don't fit in my hand, so that makes it even more worth it 🙂 thanks for all of the tips! My first farmer's market is tmrw!😁

I had my first farmers market this past weekend and your tip of standing was on point! It was an indoor farmers/holiday expo and I pretty much sold out of all my soap in 4hrs and I was the ONLY vendor standing. I would smile say hello and just start talking about my soaps and almost every person purchased from me! Thank you for the tips and videos, you made my first farmers market a huge success!

I too am very shy, so I feel I block a lot of my progress because of it. I just need to find a way to get out of my own way and start putting myself out there because I believe in my products and I work really hard at formulating them. Thank you for your videos!

This information is so accurate. I have only went to 2. And my first craft show I made about 75 dollars. This last time was about 180 dollars. A piece of advice that could be extremely helpful is that the reason why my sales boosted is because I had samples for people to smell. Also a must is a credit card reader as they said. I had people ask me the last time if I took cards. 😬 I didn't. I think I would of made 300 at least. I will this time. 😁 Thanks for all the info.

This was excellent video my husband always told me you need to make more products then just soap. So it took years I started with soap then candles now perfume oil Sprays and more. The thing now is moving from NY to the south is smells. Demographics is important to know also cause it’s different. Sales are getting better in the south especially after this past year. I do have different price points so I make small amounts of some products to see what type of smells they are looking for. I’m the beginning it’s also a logo keeping things uniform that took me years to finally get. I was working in the beginning doing markets only one day a week so I never gave up until finally my business is doing a lot better. Patients is the key and believe it will get better.

Awesome tips and tricks. I think your right about standing and greeting people. Everyone loves a friendly smile. Sometimes people are shy, like you said, and I keep business cards available for them to take. On the back I state we do custom orders for baby showers, weddings etc.and those people often call the house to discuss a wedding or shower. We even had a business get hold of us to do an employee appreciation gift. So the possibilities are endless! Jill

Thanks for these tips. I am shy myself at first but after I am good. Lol. But I am very friendly and always say hi to everyone. So that won't be my down fall. But making youtube might be my problems. But i do agree that saying hi/hello will make a person take a look. I have done sales before so I know how to target my buyers. That is very important. And I also agree with having a variety of items to sell. That is why I want to start my farmers market selling next year god's willing. I will also have sample's to offer in certain products. And make sure to know my products and what the benefits are in using a certain products, because if you don't know your products and there benefits that isn't good. It is a must you know what you are offering and selling to people. That is how you will gain customers and followers. I will be offering lip gloss, lip balms, body scrubs, body butters, soaps, bath bombs, oils, hair products, and all natural deodorant etc. I agree with the banner and social media.

Farmers markets have honestly been the most successful way that I’ve grown my business! I just wish I could do ALL of the markets around my area. I need my hubby to take Kale’s lead and do some markets while I’m at others. He loves to come with me ...but doesn’t do any of the sales. I guess I’m happy he helps me set up, take down and do packaging sometimes. And of course he loves the money we make lol

Really well done video! Anyone who wants to make a business selling soaps had best learn how to make the soap first. It takes time to develop your recipe and it must be a safe soap. People don't realize that they can cause severe harm with lye heavy soaps or too much scent. Your video information can be used for all types of booths. One thing I would add is to make sure you have enough change!

So, the only way I've been able to do this is to have 1 price for general items. Like for my 3 soaps for $22 deal, its literally "3 soaps for $22" in my square. This is not great for inventory and record-keeping, but I've have not found a way around this, unfortunately.

Do you have any goat’s milk soaps tutorials? That’s what I’m specializing in because I dearly love my goats and I love all of the health benefits from their milk. I also make caramels and cajeta with my goat’s milk. That’s what sets me apart at the farmer’s markets, I make goat milk products.

Hi Jerika, hope all is well. Thank you for the good videos and work you put out. I have a question: most if not all farmers markets around us does have a soap vendor already. Do you think it is a good idea to open a booth at a farmers market where other homemade soap is sold by other vendor?

You should make a video about all the questions that people ask you about your products and how to be ready

Hi Jerika! I am also a soapmaker for 3 years, I will open my boutique soon in my little town in Québec. I concentrate my work for local customers. I am searching for advices, planification to help my productivity. Do you have an exemple of a typical day? How many hours a day do you work? I'm always doing 5 things at the time and I think that my production could be optimized. It's a little bit free for all here in the moment, and I have the impression of getting late for many reasons, for example: my soaps are ready but not the labels, or I want to make candles for a while, and I have my soy wax waiting for me for months but I just make more types of soap because I want to offer variety, or I elaborate a recipe for a product and I just wait for more time to do it! Lol. I am a passionate person and I work hard, but I think that I will have to optimize my time/schedule real soon to not get exhausted one day, like at Christmas time. Thank you :)

I had my first farmers market stand last Friday and I noticed that every time I was standing when someone would come up, I'd get a sale and no one bought anything while I was sitting!
