Portable Trade Show

How can I get involved in selling at trade shows/bazaars?

I'm a Tastefully Simple consultant and am curious how to get started setting up at trade shows and bazaars. Thanks!

1. You have to first find the trade shows and bazaars that are local to you. Do some searches online or ask local convention areas how to get a list of what's going on. Then - call and ask how to be a vendor, what is expected, what advice you could get. After all - the trade show wants you to be successful as well and won't mind giving some advice.
2. Usually these places rent space for you to set up a table (or whatever). Check the website of the next show you think you would like to sell at and there should be instructions on how to rent space. Be warned, however, that newbies at any public show get the least-attractive positions at the show, as the promoters reward their best "customers" with the better points in the exhibit.
