Stall Location
Choose a location with high foot traffic that fits your target market. Selling products for the back-to-school season should of course be done in a location where there are lots of students and parents, be it a local market, community event or near a school. Research and explore different locations based on the theme of your product to find the best location for your product.
Stall Layout and Display
Design an attractive booth layout to effectively display your products. Use eye-catching displays, signage and lighting, or set up small games in your booth to pique the interest of children.
If you want a customer to buy your product, make sure he sees your booth first. Make sure your stall is well organised and display product samples prominently. If possible, consider offering a demonstration or live engraving session to attract visitors and show off the capabilities of Ortur's laser engraving machines.Be aware that looking directly at the laser can cause eye damage, so make sure onlookers wear protective eyewear!
Pricing and Packaging
Pricing and Packaging You need to set the price of your product carefully, making sure that it is competitively priced and pays for itself, yet makes a profit. You may consider offering combo packs or buy more, get more discounts. Also if you can design your own unique brand logo and package your products attractively, this will increase the perceived value of your products.
Personalised on-site Engraving
One of the strengths of stall business is the ability to offer an on-site customisation and engraving service. Allowing customers to choose a design, name or message to be engraved on-site provides them with a unique and personalised experience. However you will need to ensure that you have access to a power connection at your stall and have a dedicated engraving workbench set up.
Interacting with Customers
Interact with customers in a friendly and knowledgeable manner. You can prepare knowledge about laser engravers in advance and answer questions about products, engraving processes, and customisation options. Provide exceptional customer service, listen to feedback, and assist customers when making purchasing decisions.
Marketing and Promotion
Promote your stall business through social media platforms or community groups. Utilise clear and aesthetically pleasing product images and engaging content to generate interest prior to the event. Consider offering incentives such as exclusive discounts or giveaways to attract visitors to your stall.
Expand Your Influence
Once you've got a steady stream of customers, consider partnering with other local businesses such as gift shops or boutiques to showcase and sell your products to a wider audience and expand your recognition. And look for opportunities to participate in large events or trade shows to attract a wider audience and provide exposure for your business.
