For Week 13 of Prep for the Holidays we're talking about how to accept payments at your holiday events, markets and pop-ups. You're going to need a payment processor! And if you've already got one, you've probably had at least one freakout moment with your payment processor hardware or software.

EP174: Making a Pivot and Fashioning a Collaboration with Rebecca Rowe: Creative Canadian Women
Saison 6 · Épisode 174
lundi 7 octobre 2024 • Durée 54:02
In this week's regular season episode, classically trained fashion designer Rebecca Rowe joins the show to talk about how she pivoted her business (and how a disaster pushed her to embrace that pivot full force!) from a designer to a stylist who helps other women find confidence in their wardrobe. And then, she took on what, at first glance, appeared to be a surprising collaboration to expand her business even further. Take a listen and it will all make sense!
Rebecca shares her top tips for connecting and collaborating with other businesses and for having a successful business pivot.
This is a great episode for creatives who... ⭐️ are looking to collaborate but don't know where to start - or who to collaborate with ⭐️ need a little help thinking outside of the box when it comes to collaborations ⭐️ would like to pivot their business but are afraid of starting fresh or upsetting existing clients or customers
Prep for the Holidays EP8: Applying to Holiday Markets
Saison 5 · Épisode 167
lundi 26 août 2024 • Durée 19:19
For Task #8 in our Prep for the Holidays checklist I'm putting the focus on getting your holiday market applications in - for makers, artists and creative service providers (yes, there's room for you, too!).
While it may be too late to apply to some of the bigger craft and maker markets in major urban centres, there's no shortage of opportunities in smaller, local markets. I'm sharing tips for finding those smaller markets because there's a LOT of them and they're looking to fill their vendor rosters now! Plus, these smaller, community markets can be a great way for newer sellers to get some experience and gain some confidence
Oh... and those big markets that are already full? They often host spring markets and now is the time to research those market application deadlines!
