Things you can say to shoppers in your booth

Sometimes the toughest part of selling your work is engaging with the nice people coming into your booth to shop. For a variety of reasons it can take me a little time to “warm up” and get into rhythm of engaging with people in the morning. So here’s a short list you can pull from to help get your interaction started in a more productive way.

I’m passionate about sharing valuable insights on my website. Your $3 donation will help me cover hosting expenses. Please donate now!👇
