Market Stall

Markets are another avenue to consider when looking to sell your work. Having a market stall and being able to talk to your customer base will give you a good idea of how your work is perceived and really help you to develop and grow.

There are lots of markets in WA, so you need to ensure that you are applying for the market that best suits your work and that will be the most sustainable. It’s best to do some research before attempting to run your own stall. Spending some time visiting the different markets you might be interested in is a great way to see the quality of the work and the way the market runs.

Before you commit to selling at a market stall consider the following;

How long will you need to commit to the market?

Your commitment may vary depending on the length of the market. Is it a one day event? Or is it run weekly or annually?

Will you be able to make a profit?

Consider how much you will need to spend to open the stall and run it. Is there a cost to selling at the market? Will you need to hire staff to assist you in selling your products or services? How much will you spend on decorating your stall to make it visually appealing? How many items do you think you will be able to sell and at what price? Scope out the competition. Are there any other stalls selling the same or similar items?
