@carnelianchris: Darrington Jade Festival 💚 I wanted to share what my experience vending at the Darrington Jade Festival, including how much I made in just 2 days. I’m incredibly thankful I got to be part of this event and connect with so many amazing people. Huge shoutout to all my jade people, the collectors, artists, vendors, customers, and everyone who stopped by, said hi, supported my work, or shared my posts. But there was another part of this event that I didn’t expect to be such a big win. The marketing continued working even after the festival. Sharing my vending experience and posting about the event brought new people to my Etsy shop, so I’m including those sales too. It was such a cool reminder that the work you put into one opportunity can create momentum somewhere completely different. And if you’ve ever wondered whether vending at an event like this is actually worth it, watch the video because I’m showing you the numbers. Sometimes you have to look beyond the booth sales to see the full picture. The event itself was one opportunity, but the visibility and connections created opportunities that continued after I packed up my booth. Thank you to everyone who helped make the event happen. I’m so grateful I got to be part of it and I can’t wait to see where the next event takes me. #DarringtonJadeFestival #SmallBusiness #washington #rockhound #vending
