1. Sell to the kids

2. Sell cheap

People will often buy something cheap whether they need it or not. Remember home crafts that are time consuming may never repay you for the time spent creating them. Look for simple crafts for a start.

3. Target Your Market

Research who you are selling to. If it's tourists keep objects suitcase size. Something that easily slips into a suitcase or travel bag is more appealing than something they'll need to pay to be shipped. Even better, handbag size.

4. Visit The Market You'll Be Selling At

Wherever you are looking to sell, go there and look around. See what other stalls have, see what type of people are looking, and more importantly, look and see what people are spending money on. Smaller markets have less competition.

5. Attract People To Your Stall

Display shiny things that catch the eye, even if you aren't selling those items in particular. Most country outdoor markets have people with dogs on leads. Put some doggie drinks out. Signage or colorful tablecloths work well.

6. Use and Rebuy

Items that people will use up and want to rebuy are great. Soaps and lotions, edibles, candles. or even unique fashion jewelry can be good resellers.

7. Look At Your Competition

Look around the community you are selling in. If a store is selling what you have for a lot less you may need to see how you can market yours with a unique angle.
